Frequently Asked Questions

You can usually spot trouble in the trunk, roots, or branches. Wet ground after rain can loosen a tree’s grip, making it more likely to fall.

What are the signs that a tree might fall over after a storm?

Watch for a sudden lean in the trunk. Big cracks, peeling bark, or snapped limbs are bad news. If you push the tree and it wobbles? That’s a serious warning sign.

How do you check for tree stability following heavy rainfall?

Look at the trunk for new bends or splits. Check the soil for sinking or puddles. Loose or sticking-out roots mean the tree’s not as anchored as it should be.

Can waterlogged soil cause trees to become hazardous?

Absolutely. Saturated ground makes roots lose their grip, so trees can topple easier—especially in a windstorm.

What should I look for in a tree’s roots to determine if it’s at risk of toppling?
Broken, crushed, or missing roots are a problem. If the soil’s pulled away from the base or there are holes near the roots, the tree isn’t anchored well.

Which types of trees are most likely to become unstable after inclement weather?

Trees with shallow roots—think willows or cottonwoods—tend to fall more often. Older trees or those that already took a beating in past storms are at higher risk, too.

Our tree specialists will pay close attention to you in order to completely comprehend your goals before making a recommendation for the best course of action. By balancing your goals with the tree’s health, beauty, conservation, health and safety, and legal requirements, we hope to fulfil your aims.
Your garden will be kept neat and orderly when the work is finished by our skilled arborists, who are friendly and experienced. All of our employees are incredibly courteous and will always respect your home, your trees, and your personal space.

We can never say when it’s going to happen.
But facts remains, Trees often suffer significant damage after heavy rain and wind, resulting in uprooting, broken branches, and leaning, frequently caused by water-saturated soil loosening root anchorage.
Common damage includes hung-up branches, split trunks, and exposed root balls, often requiring immediate professional inspection for safety.

Seasonal Tree Maintenance Tasks are Annual you choose the Month

Winter
Winter is a critical time for pruning and removing dead or weakened branches that may pose risks during storms. Without leaves on the trees, inspections are easier and more effective, allowing potential issues like structural weaknesses or fungal infections to be identified.
Winter pruning promotes healthy growth in spring by shaping the tree and eliminating problematic areas before new growth begins.

These are the 3 things one needs to look at when hiring a Tree felling company.

Tree Services We Qualified, well established, Professional and certified.
Having a reliable tree feller or certified arborist assess and maintain your trees on an annual basis provides significant benefits, including enhanced safety by removing hazardous deadwood. Regular, professional maintenance ensures that trees remain healthy, stable, and aesthetically pleasing, while mitigating risks of damage during storms.

Bad, windy, and cold weather (especially wet/wintery storms) presents a high risk to trees, potentially causing branch failure, uprooting, or root damage.
Trees that are not properly maintained may be at risk of falling or causing damage. At 55 to 63 mph, entire trees can be uprooted, and considerable structural damage can occur.

Species more likely to fall in wind:
▪︎ Willow
▪︎ White spruce
▪︎ Cedar
▪︎ White pine
