When a storm hits, not all tree damage is obvious right away.
This tree suffered a major split from high winds, combined with underlying stem damage that had already weakened its structure. Once that integrity is compromised, it doesn’t take much for the tree to fail and when it does, it can be sudden and dangerous.
Cracks, splits, and internal stress points are serious warning signs. Even if the tree is still standing, it may no longer be safe.
At Arborist LLC, we assess storm damage the right way looking beyond what you see on the surface to determine the safest and most responsible solution.
If you notice splitting, leaning, or damaged limbs after a storm, don’t wait. These situations can escalate quickly.
Stay safe, and don’t guess when it comes to tree safety.
