Is that Tree Going to Fall Over?

Maintaining the health and stability of the trees on your property requires regular tree care. A skilled tree trimmer can see possible problems and take precautions to safeguard your trees with routine tree treatments. However, trees might occasionally collapse suddenly, so it's crucial to keep a close eye on their health.

It's beneficial to stroll around your property and carefully examine each tree once a month to assess your trees. Pay close attention to any visual alterations to the tree, such as unevenly peeled bark, rifts in the wood, or dead leaves at the top. It's also crucial to look for leaning trees, as they may indicate trouble. Trees naturally slant slightly, but if one seems to be slanting more than usual, it's time to call in a tree care expert for a closer look.

Deep cracks in the tree's trunk, heaving soil on the side opposite the lean, exposed roots surrounding the base of the tree, and the presence of mushrooms, conks, or carpenter ants near the base of the tree, which can suggest decay and rot, are further evident danger indicators to watch out for. It's critical to take action right away and seek the assistance of a tree care professional if you see any of these symptoms.
