When to Remove a Tree: Key Signs to Look For

Removing a tree is a big decision. These are the signs we look for.

The tree is dead or dying

No leaves in the growing season, brittle branches and bark falling off in sheets are all warning signs.

Large cracks or a leaning trunk

A trunk that has started to lean, or deep cracks along it, means the tree may fall.

Fungus or hollow areas

Mushrooms at the base and hollow spots mean the wood inside is rotting.

It threatens a building or power line

Even a healthy tree can be a risk if it is too close to your home.
