What Is a Tree Risk Assessment?
Tree risk assessments help homeowners understand whether a tree or large limb is more likely to fail, what it could strike, and what can be done to reduce risk. Learn the warning signs, storm-related concerns, neighbor tree issues, and when an arborist should be consulted.
Signs a Tree May Be Unsafe
Unsafe trees are not always obvious. Learn what warning signs homeowners should watch for, including leaning, root movement, trunk cracks, cavities, dead limbs, fungal growth, storm damage, root damage, and structural defects.
When Should a Tree Be Removed?
Tree removal should be based on more than fear, appearance, or convenience. Learn how arborists evaluate tree health, structural defects, root problems, storm damage, site conflicts, and risk before recommending removal.
