Hazardous Trees

Hazardous trees can be big or small depending on their location and situation. If a tree is too close to a house or other structure even a small tree can cause significant damage. Hazardous tree removal should be on your mind regardless of the season or time of year. With the extreme changes in weather that we have been experiencing recently this has been amplified. Healthy trees are a wonderful asset to your land, but when they become damaged or unsafe it can cause serious issues to property or person.

Tree trunks and branches can be weak and defective but still have green leaves. It is essential to look at defects and examine them closely. Spotting a problem early and getting a professional in to conduct a tree inspection and plan around maintenance or removal can reduce your chances of having a serious problem. A few key hazards to watch for in the trees on your property include:

• Hanging, broken, or damaged branches.

• Dead branches that pose a fall risk or are dropping for no apparent reason.

• Changes in the bark of the tree including decay, deep cracks, or splits.

• A tree that is on a lean.

• Exposed or weakened trees (making them susceptible to wind damage).

• Poor tree structure.

• Root damage (that may have been caused unknowingly during construction activities). From the safety of friends, family, neighbours, and passersby to protecting your property, there is no such thing as taking too many precautions.
