Storm preparation begins with identifying trees that have dead branches, structural weaknesses, damaged roots, or other conditions that may increase the likelihood of failure. A professional inspection can help distinguish routine maintenance needs from serious hazards.
Selective pruning may reduce the risk of certain branches breaking during high winds. Trees with significant structural defects may require additional assessment, support systems, or removal when preservation is not reasonably safe.
Homeowners should also protect root zones from unnecessary excavation, soil compaction, and construction damage. Healthy roots are essential for stability, and root injuries may not become visible in the canopy until much later.
