Dangerous Tree Assessment and Removal: A Practical Overview
A dangerous tree rarely announces itself in a neat, obvious way. Sometimes the problem is dramatic, such as a storm-split stem hanging over a driveway. More often, risk builds quietly. A large limb extends farther each year over a roof. Old pruning wounds begin to decay. A trunk develops a seam that was easy to miss when the canopy was full. The work of dangerous tree assessment and removal sits right at that intersection of biology, structure, weather, and consequence.
