HAS THAT TREE ALWAYS LEANED LIKE THAT? 👀
A leaning tree isn’t automatically a dangerous tree. Some trees grow at an angle their entire lives and develop root systems that support them just fine.
But a tree that’s STARTED leaning? That’s a different story!
If you’ve noticed a tree shifting toward your house, driveway, or another structure, there are a few things worth paying attention to:
🌳 A New or Increasing Lean – A noticeable change in a tree’s position can indicate a developing problem.
🌱 Raised or Cracked Soil – Soil lifting or separating around the base may indicate that roots are moving or failing.
🪵 Cracks in the Trunk – Splitting wood or new cracks can be signs of structural weakness.
🏡 What’s Beneath It – A questionable tree leaning toward your home deserves particular attention.
Not every leaning tree needs to be removed, but knowing the difference matters!
