Dead or Dying Tree
If the majority of the tree’s branches are bare or the trunk is decaying, removal is necessary to prevent collapse.

Severe Storm Damage
Trees that are cracked, leaning, or split from storms often cannot be saved and pose immediate risks.

Extensive Disease
Fungal growth, dead wood, and peeling bark may indicate advanced disease that compromises the tree’s integrity.

Root System Issues
If roots are lifting sidewalks, damaging foundations, or causing other hazards, removal may be unavoidable.

Tree is Leaning
A tree suddenly leaning or tilting, especially after heavy winds or storms, is a warning sign of instability.

Obstruction or Overcrowding
Trees growing too close to structures, power lines, or other trees may need to be removed for safety or aesthetic reasons.
