Tree Hazard Repair Dunwoody

BAM Tree Experts handle tree hazard repair in Dunwoody and throughout the Atlanta metro area.  Several tree defects are considered high-risk situations for tree failure and possible damage to surrounding property or people. The most common indicators of tree defects include the following.

• Poor Tree Form – While unusually-shaped trees are interesting, some are intrinsically defective structurally. Poor tree form is often a result of frequent storms, unnatural growing conditions, poor pruning, topping, or other damage.

• Dead Wood – Dead trees and branches create an unpredictable hazard of falling on someone or something, putting you at risk for personal injury and property damage.

• Weak Branch Unions – When branches are not strongly attached to a tree, you end up with a weak branch union. This situation causes the tree to have poor structural strength, with the bark acting as a wedge. Consequently branch unions tend to split apart, creating a risk of falling branches.

• Cracks – Cracks, deep splits through the bark of a tree, indicate that a tree is failing. Branches larger than 4 inches in diameter that are cracked are particularly dangerous as a branch of that size can cause a lot of damage if and when it falls.

• Decay – Trees with decaying areas are prone to failure. Trees usually decay from the inside out, so once the decay is visible, you are well on your way to a tree failure. Evidence of decay includes fungal activity as well as soft, crumbly wood.

• Root Problems – Trees with root issues have a tendency to fall over in a windstorm or even from the weight of leaves. Indications of a root problem include die back, dead wood, and off-color or smaller-than-normal leaves.

• Canker – Cankers, where bark is sunken or missing indicates a wounded or diseased tree and can cause a tree’s demise and a fall-over hazard.
