Spring is just around the corner, and while that means blooming flowers and warmer weather, it also brings something a little less fun—intense storms. High winds, heavy rain, and even late-season snow can spell disaster if you’ve got a dead or dying tree hanging around your yard. If you’ve been putting off tree removal, now’s the time to act before Mother Nature forces your hand.
Dead Trees Are a Storm’s Favorite Target
Your yard’s dead tree is like nature’s weakest link. Without strong roots and healthy limbs, they’re much more likely to break, snap, or even uproot entirely during a storm. And let’s be real—no one wants to wake up to a tree crashing through their roof or taking out their power lines.
Falling Branches Are a Huge Liability
It’s not just entire trees that can cause damage—heavy, dead branches can snap off and come down hard on cars, fences, and even people. If you have a tree that’s been looking rough all winter, those brittle branches are just waiting for a strong gust of wind to send them flying.
Pests Love Dead Trees
Dead and decaying trees are basically an open invitation for termites, carpenter ants, and other wood-loving pests to move in. And guess where those pests go next? Yep—straight to your house. Taking down a dead tree before spring can help keep those unwanted guests from finding their way inside.
You’ll Save Money in the Long Run
Tree removal might seem like a big investment, but it’s nothing compared to the cost of storm damage repairs. Taking out a problem tree before it falls can save you thousands in roof repairs, insurance claims, or emergency tree removal after a storm.
Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Late
If you have a tree that looks bare, cracked, leaning, or covered in fungus, it’s time to call in the pros. Our team at Bergholz’s Tree Experts can assess the situation and safely remove the tree before spring storms do it for you.
