The Tree Is Too Close for Comfort
When trees get close to your home or other structures around your property, this can lead to serious issues.Trees can cause mold or even disturb your home’s foundation if they’re too close.

The Trunk Is Hollow
Noticing cavities or hollowness in a tree trunk is usually bad news. These signal problems with the tree’s structural integrity, meaning it’s on the decline.

There’s a Growing Number of Dead or Dying Tree Branches
Dead branches here and there are part of a tree’s natural growth cycle. However, if you can’t seem to keep up with the dying portions of your tree, this is a bad sign.

There’s No More Healthy, New Green Life
A tree with no fresh, new growth visible is likely in bad shape. Weak and brittle branches, dead or browning leaves, and a trunk that isn’t what it used to be are all signs that a tree is beyond repair

The Tree Is Dead
A diseased tree will often reveal telltale signs. Diseases don’t just interfere with your tree’s beauty—they can also weaken the tree, making it more prone to falling down or losing limbs despite your best tree care habits. In some cases, the disease is manageable, and you may be able to remove the affected portions through tree trimming. Hollow trunks and many dying branches usually point to a dead tree.
