Frequently asked questions
Tree Health Assessment FAQ
Who should assess a hazardous tree?
An ISA Certified Arborist or similarly qualified tree-risk professional may be appropriate.
What does fungal growth mean?
Some fungi indicate decay, but significance depends on species and location.
Can a hollow tree be safe?
Possibly, but cavity size, remaining wood, species, and targets must be evaluated.
Why is my tree losing leaves early?
Drought, disease, insects, root stress, and seasonal factors may contribute.
Can roots be inspected?
Visible roots, soil condition, damage, and specialized tests may be evaluated.
Are treatments guaranteed?
No. Results depend on diagnosis, timing, severity, species, and site conditions.
