5 Indications that a Tree Is Creating a Safety Hazard

By Brent Kallenbach • 08 Apr, 2024

Healthy trees are wonderful additions to our environment, providing shade, beauty, and oxygen. However, as they age or undergo stress, they can become hazardous, posing risks to property and safety. If you think that a tree on your property might be creating a safety issue, you should arrange a professional inspection. At Hernandez Tree Experts, our local arborists are experts at identifying and safely removing hazardous trees. Here are five warning signs that a tree is posing a safety risk. Leaning or Unstable Structure One of the most apparent signs of a hazardous tree is a significant lean. If a tree is noticeably leaning to one side, it could indicate root damage, soil erosion, or structural weakness. Trees that are heavily leaning can be more prone to toppling over in high winds. Cracks or Cavities in the Trunk Cracks/cavities in the trunk can weaken the tree's structural integrity, making it susceptible to breakage or collapse. Large cavities or hollow areas within the trunk compromise its ability to support the weight of branches and foliage. If you notice any signs of decay or damage, it's best to consult with an experienced arborist. Dead or Hanging Branches Dead, broken, or hanging branches are clear signs of potential danger. These branches are prone to falling unexpectedly, posing a risk to people, buildings, and vehicles beneath them. Keep an eye out for branches that lack foliage or exhibit signs of decay, such as discolored wood. These branches should be safely removed ASAP. Root Problems While root systems are largely hidden underground, they play a crucial role in anchoring trees and providing structural support. Signs of root problems—such as heaving soil, exposed roots, or fungal growth around the base of the tree—may indicate issues below the surface. Compromised roots can weaken the tree's stability, leading to potential uprooting. Interfering with Nearby Infrastructure or Utilities Trees located in close proximity to buildings, power lines, or other structures pose additional risks if they were to fall or shed branches. Overhanging branches can interfere with power lines, while trees with roots encroaching upon underground utilities may disrupt plumbing or damage infrastructure.

What are general signs of disease in trees?

By Hernandez Tree Experts • 06 Mar, 2024

Trees play a vital role in maintaining ecological balance and enhancing the beauty of our surroundings. However, trees are susceptible to diseases that can threaten their health and longevity. And when a tree’s health suffers, it can become more prone to falling over, which poses a significant safety risk. At Hernandez Tree Experts, our local arborists can identify diseased trees and determine whether they should be safely removed or if they can be saved. Here are four warning signs that a tree is diseased. Unusual Leaf Discoloration Healthy leaves typically display a vibrant and uniform hue. If you notice discoloration—such as yellowing, browning, or spotting—it could be a symptom of an underlying issue. This could be indicative of fungal diseases. Abnormal Growth Patterns Irregular growth patterns can also be a red flag for tree diseases. Check for stunted growth, dieback of branches, or unusual deformities. Diseased trees often struggle to produce new, healthy growth, and branches may appear weak or withered. Keep an eye out for cankers – areas of dead bark on branches or trunks – as they can be a sign of infections. Unexplained Bark Changes Changes in a tree's bark can provide insights into its health. Peeling or cracking bark, as well as the presence of unusual growths like cankers or lumps, may indicate disease. Also, discoloration or lesions on the bark can be a sign of infections. These abnormalities should be promptly brought to the arborist’s attention. Unusual Growths Some tree diseases are accompanied by the emergence of unusual fruiting bodies or growths. Fungi, in particular, can produce mushrooms or conks on or near the tree. These growths often indicate decay or infection within the tree. Alert the arborist if you notice any unexpected formations, as they can provide important clues about the type of disease affecting the tree.

Lewis was prompt to provide a quote and work us into his schedule to remove our 22 year old tree that did not survive last year's winter storm. His crew were professional and efficient at clearing all the mess. The job was completed in only 30 minutes. I highly recommend Hernandez Tree Experts for any other tree removal services.

They turned what could’ve been a really bad experience into an amazing service. I called in the morning to schedule removal of a humongous pecan tree and they came that afternoon and worked until after dark to remove the tree. They cleaned up all the debris and even came back later to blow out the gutters and clean off the roof. It was a pleasure working with them and I would highly recommend Hernandez Tree Experts. Top-notch!

Michael from Hernandez Tree Experts came out quickly after we lost large limbs in the recent ice storm. The price was reasonable, and the team of 8 arrived two days later to thin, prune, and shape our 50' live oak tree. Michael was great about communicating with us. The team was professional and efficient, and we were very pleased with their work. They brought a chipper and did a great cleanup! They were done in 40 minutes. Amazing!

Lewis came out to give us a quote then came back a couple of days later with his crew. About 3 hours of work to remove one tree, grind the stump, and trim two trees. They took all of the safety precautions so I never felt they or us were in danger when removing the tree. Second time using them and will again in the future!
