4 Common Reasons that Trees Need to Be Professionally Removed

By The Tree Guy • April 16, 2025
Trees are a valuable part of any landscape, offering beauty and environmental benefits. However, there are times when tree removal is necessary for safety, property maintenance, or overall landscape health. Professional tree removal ensures that the job is done safely and efficiently. At The Tree Guy, we provide expert tree removal in the greater Ventura, CA area. Here are four common reasons that trees need to be professionally removed. Structural Instability A tree with significant structural damage poses a serious risk to people and property. Storms and high winds can weaken a tree’s limbs or trunk, making it prone to falling. Cracks, splits, or leaning are signs of instability that should be addressed by a professional arborist. Removing an unstable tree before it collapses can prevent costly damage and injuries. Disease and Pest Infestation Trees that are severely affected by disease or pests often require removal to protect the surrounding landscape. Fungal infections, rot, or infestations by insects like termites or bark beetles can spread quickly, compromising the health of nearby trees. When treatment is no longer effective, professional removal helps prevent the spread of the problem and maintains the overall health of the property. Encroachment on Structures As trees grow, their roots and branches can extend too close to homes, driveways, and utility lines. Overgrown roots can crack foundations, lift sidewalks, and interfere with plumbing, while large branches may pose a hazard to roofs and power lines. If a tree is causing structural damage or creating a safety concern, removal may be the best option to prevent costly repairs and potential accidents. Dead or Dying Trees A tree that is dead or in the advanced stages of decline no longer contributes to the landscape and can become a liability. Dead trees are brittle and more likely to fall unexpectedly, posing a serious hazard to people and property. Removing a dead or dying tree promptly helps maintain the safety and aesthetics of the property while allowing space for new, healthy growth.

4 Signs That a Big Tree Is Posing a Danger to Your Home

By The Tree Guy • March 19, 2025
Trees add beauty and shade to your property, but when they grow too large or become unhealthy, they can pose serious risks to your home. It’s important to be aware of the signs that a big tree may be threatening your property so that you can take action before an accident occurs. At The Tree Guy, our local arborists can identify dangerous trees and remove them as needed. Here are four signs that a large tree may be dangerous to your home.  Large Cracks or Holes in the Trunk The trunk of a tree is its central support, and any signs of damage to it should be taken seriously. Large cracks or holes in the trunk can weaken the structural integrity of the tree, making it more likely to fall or break apart in strong winds or storms. If you notice any large visible cracks or significant cavities in the tree’s trunk, it may be an indication that the tree is unhealthy or structurally compromised. In these cases, it’s important to consult with an arborist to assess the risk.  Significant Leaning A tree that is leaning in a specific direction can be a significant hazard, especially if it leans toward your home. While many trees do naturally grow at slight angles, a pronounced lean could indicate that the tree’s root system is damaged or that it’s been weakened by disease or weather. If the tree is leaning toward your house or any structures on your property, it’s critical to have it evaluated by a professional. If left unaddressed, a leaning tree could eventually topple, causing major damage to your home.  Dead or Dying Branches Dead, dying, or hanging branches are a major sign that a tree may pose a threat to your home. These branches can fall at any time, especially during storms or high winds. Overhanging branches that are too close to the roof, windows, or power lines are particularly concerning, as they could cause physical damage or even create fire hazards if they touch electrical wires. If you notice any large dead branches, it’s important to have them trimmed back or removed.  Root Damage or Exposure The roots of a large tree are essential for stability and nourishment. If you notice that the roots are exposed, damaged, or pushing up through the soil, it can indicate that the tree is struggling or unstable. When the roots are compromised, the risk of the tree uprooting increases. If you spot signs of root damage near your home or foundation, it’s a good idea to call an arborist for an evaluation.
