Trimming solves a lot of tree problems, but not all of them.
A trunk with a large vertical crack, a tree that has started leaning noticeably more than before, or a root flare showing signs of decay are all signs that trimming will not fix the underlying issue. Fungal growth at the base, especially large shelf-like conks, is another indicator that the structural integrity of the tree is already compromised.
We evaluate the whole tree, not just the branch someone called about, because removal decisions should be based on the full picture, not a single visible symptom.
If something in your yard has you wondering whether it can be saved, that question is worth answering before the next storm makes the decision for you.

Use a close-up photo of a trunk crack, decay, or fungal conks identified on a recent inspection, paired with a wider shot of the tree. Real documentation of a hazard tree is more useful to homeowners than a generic tree photo.
