Major storms are not uncommon in the Fredericksburg area, which means that storm damage is not uncommon, either. Uprooted trees and fallen branches can damage your home, vehicles, property, or nearby power lines. It’s important to get tree service professionals on-site as soon as possible to inspect the damages and assess the situation’s safety.

Car accidents and other collisions can seriously harm a tree. An emergency tree service can inspect the tree for weaknesses and instability to ensure the safety and health of your tree.

Often, a diseased tree is not visibly unsafe, as diseases can destroy a tree from the inside out. However, diseased trees are not structurally sound, posing a threat to you and your property. Common signs of a diseased tree include discolored leaves, the presence of carpenter ants, and brittle branches. A Fredericksburg, Warrenton, Culpeper, or other local tree service will be able to identify common diseases in your region. If you suspect that your tree is distressed, contacting emergency tree service is advisable.

If a tree branch is threating the safety of your home, property, or nearby power lines, it’s time to call in emergency tree care. Dead branches fall without warning, so it’s best to have them removed before they cause damage.

Trees that obstruct the view of traffic can be dangerous for both drivers and pedestrians. Emergency tree service can help remove branches and/or trees that pose a safety risk.

Noticeable damage to tree roots could indicate that the root structure is weakened. With impaired structural support, a tree could fall at any time. Emergency service professionals will be able to determine the extent of the damage and potentially remove the tree before it falls.

While some trees have a slight natural lean, a lean that develops suddenly can be a warning signal. As a general rule, a tree with a 15% lean from vertical should be removed. An emergency tree service will evaluate a leaning tree and advise you on what steps need to be taken.
