Common Causes of Tree Emergencies
Understanding what leads to tree failure helps prevent it. Common causes include:
- Rotting or diseased roots
- Cracks or splits in the trunk
- Heavy snow or ice storms
- Saturated soil and wind
Even healthy-looking trees can pose a risk if not routinely inspected. That’s why Riverside also offers proactive tree health assessments to prevent future emergencies.
