When to Call for Tree Service
Don’t wait for a tree to fall. Watch for these signs that professional attention is needed.
Dead or Dying Branches
Large dead limbs are unpredictable and can fall without warning. Crown dieback is often a sign of root problems or disease.
Leaning Trees
A tree that’s suddenly leaning may have compromised roots. Even gradual leaning toward structures is a concern.
Branches Over Structures
Heavy limbs hanging over your roof, deck, or vehicles pose a constant risk during storms or from ice accumulation.
Fungus or Decay
Mushrooms at the base, soft or crumbling bark, and hollow trunks indicate internal decay that weakens the tree’s structure.
Storm Damage
After severe weather, hanging branches and split limbs need immediate removal to prevent further damage.
Root Problems
Heaving soil around the base, exposed roots, or roots damaged by construction can destabilize the entire tree.
