Tree Removal in NJ: How to Know If Your Tree is a Threat

Full grown trees on your property can add as much as 10% to your property value. However, if a tree is sick, or starts to weaken, it become a tremendous liability to you, your family, and your home. The experts at Amazing Tree Service have these tips to determine if a tree is a potential threat.

Check around the roots – The root system is the anchor for all plant life, and an indicator of the trees overall health. Take note of any cavities, hollows, or cracks in the root structure. If you notice the soil raising on the opposite of trees lean, it may lead to the tree uprooting. Before the tree falls, it is important to call a professional tree removal service in NJ.

Check the trunk
– The entire tree can crack or split if there is a large enough cavity in the trunk. Look for places on the trunk where there is no bark, this indicates a dead section. Insects will often target an ill tree’s trunk because the wood is softer. Overtime the insects boring into the wood can leave a major cavity in the tree’s trunk. Tree removal in NJ is the only solution if the cavity has become too large.

Multiple trunks – Trees with multiple trunks can become unstable. V or U shaped multiple trunks are weak points in mature trees. The connective wood in the area may lose strength over time, making it more likely to split. The risk is increased if the tree is older, or there has been a recent storm.
