5 Signs Your Tree Might Be a Hazard (And What to Do About It!)
Trees add beauty and value to your property, but sometimes they can pose serious risks. Ignoring warning signs can lead to property damage or injury. Here are five signs your tree might be hazardous and what you should do about it.
1. Leaning Tree – If your tree is suddenly leaning or shifting, it could indicate root damage or instability. This requires immediate attention.
2. Cracks or Splits in the Trunk – Large cracks weaken the tree structure and make it prone to breaking, especially during storms.
3. Dead or Hanging Branches – Dead limbs can fall unexpectedly, causing damage to homes, vehicles, or even people.
4. Fungal Growth on the Trunk or Roots – Mushrooms or decay indicate internal rot, which weakens the tree from the inside out.
5. Root Damage – Construction, soil erosion, or disease can damage roots, making the tree unstable.
