When Is It Time to Say Goodbye?
If a tree falls over from your property, then the damages are your responsibility if the tree should have been removed. The ordinary person may not be able to detect most signs of a tree that should be removed, but Southern Star Tree has put together some red flags to look for:
- Dead Branches: It is okay if a few branches are decaying or dead, but if fifty percent or more of the tree is dead or damaged, then it is probably time to remove the tree.
- Root Defects: Heaving soil and fungi growing near the tree roots are signs of root issues. A tree with weak roots is like a house with a weak foundation.
- Damaged Trunk: A cracked, split, or hollow trunk indicates decay. Though trees can live for years with decay, it is better to be safe than sorry.
- Under or Close to Utility Lines: If your tree is under a utility line or too close to a building or structure, then you run the risk of damaging that structure. Remove the tree before damage is done.
