Know the Warning Signs

When Does a Tree Need to Come Down?

Our free property evaluations look for these critical warning signs. Catching them early protects your property — and your liability.

Cracks & Splits

Cracks in the trunk, major limbs, or bark are serious structural warning signs that can lead to sudden failure.

Decay & Rot

Fungal growth, soft wood, or hollow sections at the base or in the crown indicate internal decay that weakens the tree.

Proximity to Structures

Trees growing into rooflines, foundations, or utility lines need assessment before they cause costly damage.

Pest Infestation

Bark beetles, borers, or carpenter ants can devastate a tree's structural integrity from the inside out.

Uneven Canopy

Heavy one-sided growth or V-shaped codominant stems create unbalanced load distribution and splitting risk.

Dead or Dying Crown

Dieback in the upper canopy, premature leaf drop, or bare branches out of season signal the tree is in serious decline.
