Dangerous Tree Signs You Should Never Ignore

Dangerous tree signs are often subtle, but identifying them early can prevent accidents, property damage, and costly emergencies. At JJ and B Tree Care, we’ve spent over 32 years helping homeowners across Bromley, Orpington, and Kent spot dangerous tree signs before they become serious hazards.

Dangerous Tree Signs in the Trunk

Dangerous tree signs often start in the trunk. Cracks, splits, cavities, loose bark, and visible decay all indicate structural weakness. If you notice mushrooms, fungal brackets, or wood that crumbles easily, these dangerous tree signs suggest internal rot.

Dangerous Tree Signs in the Canopy

Dead, hanging, or partially broken branches are some of the most common dangerous tree signs. If the canopy thins suddenly, branches lose leaves prematurely, or limbs overhang your home, a professional assessment is essential.

Dangerous Tree Signs at the Roots

Leaning trees, lifting soil, exposed roots, or root damage are all severe and dangerous tree signs. Root failure is a major cause of fallen trees during storms.

What to Do If You Spot Dangerous Tree Signs

If you spot dangerous tree signs, contact JJ and B Tree Care for a free, fully insured assessment. Our council‑approved team can advise on reductions, removals, crown work, and emergency tree care.
