If you notice dead branches, overcrowding, a leaning tree trunk, or a ripped tree trunk, it is time to remove your tree. A dying tree can become very hazardous to your property if it is left untreated and not removed properly and efficiently. However, we understand that cutting down a tree is no easy decision; however, in most instances, it is necessary in order to protect your land and other surrounding trees. If you are questioning whether or not to remove a tree, here are our telltale signs your tree must be removed:
4 Signs Your Tree Needs to Be Removed:
1.Dead Branches
One of the first and most noticeable signs that something is wrong with a tree is by examining the branches. If you notice that a tree is shedding more branches than usual, there could be a bigger problem. Dead branches near the crown of the tree are extremely dangerous to you and your home as they can fall suddenly and are very hard. If the tree is more than 50% dead or damaged then it is time to cut it down.
2. Hollow Trunk
Hollowness in a tree trunk is very bad news. A hollow trunk is a sign that the tree’s structural integrity is on a fast decline, as a weak/hollow trunk cannot support its limbs properly. Without a strong trunk, you are putting your property at risk for falling limbs.
3.Storm Damage
Damage from a tough storm, whether that is rain or snow can cause abrupt trauma and damage to a tree. This damage can be repairable but in some cases, the tree needs to be removed. If it is only damaged you can trim and prune the tree, however, if you are unsatisfied with the appearance of the tree after, it may be time to remove it. If you are in need of storm damage services, Mass Bay Tree is available 24/7 for any emergency and storm-related jobs that may require our expert services.
4.No More Healthy/Green Life
If you begin to notice that your tree is displaying no more signs of a fresh, green, beautiful life, the tree may be dead. This is a sign that the tree is not once what it was and is gone beyond repair. By removing your dead tree you are saving the others around it, saving their leaf health.
