One of the obvious signs that a tree should be removed is if it is dead or dying. Dead trees are without leaves and may appear dead. If a tree has no leaves or evidence of new growth, it’s likely dead. The bark of a dead tree might be dry, cracked or peeling.
Trees that are diseased
The trees that are sick may pose a threat to the other plants and trees in the surrounding area. The most common signs of disease on trees are yellowing leaves, wilted branches, and mushroom growth at the base and the top. If you suspect that your tree may be diseased it is important to get it checked by an arborist who is a professional.
Leaning Trees
Trees that lean to one side may be an indication of a failing root structure and the tree may be at risk of falling. To find out if a tree that is leaning is at risk, look for cracks or breaks within the trunk and examine the soil at the base of the tree. If you see any of these signs it is recommended to examine the tree by an arborist.
Overhanging Branches
The branches of overhanging trees which are located close to power lines or structures can pose a risk to the safety of your property and personal safety. If you’re concerned about branches hanging overhanging, it’s best to get the tree assessed by an arborist to determine if pruning or removal is needed.
