Dead trees and branches are often dry and brittle. They can break and fall anytime. Especially dangerous a dead branch or treetop becomes, when it is already broken off.
Any cracks on the tree indicate that it is most likely falling down. If not today, then during the next windstorm coming up. Check for multiple cracks in the same area or those that extend deeply into the trunk.
The poor location of the planted tree often results in creating a hazard: roots encroaching house foundation, overhanging branches, the weakened soil, etc.
If a bottom of the junction looks more like a ‘V’ than a ‘U’, being connected under the very sharp angle, included bark grows is to grow there. When a tree keeps growing, it’s often the first place where a tree will split or a branch will break off during a storm.
Decaying trees. Advanced decay becomes a serious safety hazard.
It usually spreads inside out, creating a cavity – sound wood is often shaping up outside of the tree as it grows, so it’s harder to evaluate the situation precisely. Then the professional arborist consulting is the safest way to go.
