But how do you tell if a tree needs to be cut down? We’ll walk you through the warning signs to look out for and help you decide when it’s time to call in the experts.

Trees that are diseased
Trees with diseases may pose a threat to other trees and plants in the area. The signs of disease that are common for trees include the appearance of yellowing leaves, wilted branches, and mushroom growth at the root and the top. If you suspect that your tree might be suffering from disease, it’s important to get it checked by a professional arborist.
Leaning Trees
Trees that are leaning towards one side could be an indication that the root system is failing and the tree may be at risk of falling. To identify if a leaning tree is a danger, look for cracks or broken areas in the trunk and examine the soil around the base of the tree. If you see any of these signs it is recommended to examine the tree by an arborist.
Overhanging Branches
The branches of overhanging trees that are in close proximity to power lines or structures could pose a threat to property and safety. If you’re concerned about overhanging branches you should have the tree evaluated by an arborist who will determine if removal or trimming is necessary.
