Hazardous-tree assessment

Evaluation of trees or limbs that may be unstable, damaged, diseased, or threatening structures, vehicles, or utilities.

Tree work should be prioritized by the condition of the tree or limb, what it threatens, access for equipment, and whether structures or utility lines are nearby. Ask what removal, pruning, cleanup, or stump work is included and whether any remaining unstable trees or limbs need separate attention. Before contacting a provider, note the tree or limb, visible damage or leaning, what it may strike, and whether utilities or structures are nearby.
