What Is Hazard Assessment?
A tree hazard assessment is a professional inspection of your tree’s health, structure, and stability to determine if your tree is safe to keep, requires trimming, or should be completely removed. Our specialists examine the entire tree, from the roots to the canopy. We look at the trunk, branches, and surrounding soil for signs of disease, decay, or damage. We also consider the tree’s location and what could be affected if it failed. Once the assessment is complete, we take the time to explain our findings to you in detail and include a written explanation that provides the information you need to make the best decision.
Signs Your Tree Requires Hazard Assessment
Because issues with your trees often develop slowly over time, it can be difficult for homeowners to detect them. However, being aware of these common warning signs may be an indication that your tree requires professional assessment:
- Leaning or Shifting – While some trees naturally grow at a slight angle, a new or worsening lean often points to root damage or unstable soil.
- Dead or Falling Branches – If you spot bare limbs, branches with no leaves during the growing season, or wood that’s brittle and gray, it’s time for an assessment.
- Crack or Cavities in the Trunk – Deep cracks, splits, or hollow cavities can weaken its structure and make it more likely to break. Fungus growth, like mushrooms at the base, is another sign of internal decay.
- Root Problems – Look for signs such as soil heaving, fungal growth near the base, or roots that appear cut or crushed due to nearby construction.
