The Risks of Overgrown Trees Near Your Home: A Recent Job in Salisbury, NC

Last Updated 10/3/2024

At Earnest Tree Service, we often see the impact that overgrown trees can have on homes, especially when they’re located too close to the structure. Trees planted near homes may seem harmless at first, but as they grow, they can create significant risks. From falling branches during storms to root intrusion that can damage your foundation, it’s essential to take action before these problems escalate.

BEFORE

Why Overgrown Trees are a Risk to Your Home

When trees grow too close to your home, their branches and roots can cause several issues:

  • Falling Branches: During high winds or storms, large branches can break off and fall, potentially damaging roofs, windows, and siding. In severe cases, an entire tree could fall on your home.
  • Root Intrusion: Tree roots can grow into your home’s foundation or underground pipes, causing costly structural damage that may not be noticeable until it’s too late.
  • Blocked Light and Space: Overgrown trees can also block sunlight, limiting natural light in your home and stunting the growth of other plants in your yard.
