When a large tree becomes unstable, it can pose a serious safety hazard. A tree at risk of falling can damage homes, vehicles, and power lines, and even endanger people nearby. Identifying the warning signs early allows you to take preventive action before disaster strikes. At Elevated Tree Care, we provide expert hazardous tree removal in the greater Pittsburgh, PA area. Here are four signs that a tree may be at an increased risk of crashing down. Noticeable Leaning A tree that is leaning more than usual or suddenly begins to tilt is a major red flag. While some trees naturally grow at an angle, a new or worsening lean can signal root instability or structural weakness. A tree leaning toward your home, driveway, or another structure should be evaluated by an arborist as soon as possible. Cracks in the Trunk Deep cracks or splits in the trunk often indicate severe structural problems. These fissures can weaken the tree’s core, making it more likely to snap under high winds. Cracked trunks are especially concerning if combined with other signs of decay or instability, as they often mean the tree no longer has the strength to stand tall. Damaged or Decaying Roots Roots are the foundation of a tree, and when they are compromised, the entire tree becomes unstable. Signs of root problems include visible decay, fungus growth at the base, or soil heaving around the tree. Because root damage is often hidden underground, even subtle signs should be taken seriously and inspected by a professional. Hollow or Decayed Areas A hollow trunk or large areas of decay reduce a tree’s structural integrity. While some trees can live for years with small hollow spots, significant internal decay often goes unnoticed until the tree becomes too weak to support itself. Visible cavities, soft wood, or signs of rot should never be ignored, as they may mean the tree is close to failing.

Dead trees may seem harmless, especially if they’ve been standing for years without issue, but they can pose serious risks to your safety, property, and landscape health. Taking action as soon as a tree dies helps ensure you maintain a safe and attractive outdoor environment. At Elevated Tree Care, our local ISA-certified arborists can identify dead trees and safely remove them as necessary. Here are four reasons to schedule prompt removal of dead trees. Prevent Property Damage Dead trees lose structural integrity over time, making them much more likely to drop heavy branches or topple entirely during strong winds or storms. If they’re located near your home, garage, fence, or power lines, the risk of expensive property damage is high. Prompt removal eliminates this hazard before it has the chance to cause costly destruction. Protect People from Injury Falling limbs from a dead tree aren’t just dangerous to structures—they can injure anyone walking, playing, or working nearby. Large branches can drop without warning, especially when there are strong winds. By removing the tree quickly, you eliminate a lurking danger that could cause serious harm to loved ones or visitors. Stop the Spread of Pests and Disease Dead trees often attract insects such as termites, carpenter ants, and beetles, which can spread to other healthy trees or even make their way to your home. Also, tree diseases can linger in dead wood and infect nearby vegetation. Removing the tree early helps protect the rest of your yard’s ecosystem from infestations and illnesses. Maintain Curb Appeal A dead tree can be an eyesore, reducing your property’s visual appeal and potentially its value. Instead of being a feature that enhances your landscaping, as the tree further decays, it becomes a sign of neglect. Quick removal allows you to replace it with fresh greenery or open up space for other attractive landscaping features.
