Does your tree have a hollow trunk, a sudden lean, or dead branches hovering over your roof? In Lambeth, where storms can hit hard and fast, a compromised tree is more than an eyesore; it is a liability. Don't wait for a windstorm to make the decision for you. Here is how to spot the danger signs before damage occurs.


Is Your Tree Dying? 4 Warning Signs to Watch

A dying tree doesn't always look dead at first glance. In our region, environmental stress often weakens trees from the inside out. Inspect your property for these red flags:

  • Storm Damage: High winds can snap "leaders" (the main vertical stem) or crack major limbs, permanently destabilizing the tree.

  • Root Rot: Look down. If you see mushrooms growing at the base or soil lifting near the trunk, the root system is likely decaying.

  • Hidden Disease: Pests like the Emerald Ash Borer can destroy a tree’s internal structure long before you notice external symptoms.

  • Structural Weakness: Watch out for "V-shaped" unions between large trunks. These joints are inherently weak and prone to splitting under the weight of heavy snow or ice.


DIY vs. Professional: When to Call a Lambeth Arborist

If a tree leans toward your home, power lines, or a neighbour’s driveway, call a certified expert immediately. DIY removal is dangerous, especially in established Lambeth neighbourhoods where homes sit close together.

Note: For safety near power lines, always contact Hydro One or your local utility provider first.

For all other hazards, Out on a Limb Tree Experts provides safe, precision removal. We use bucket trucks and specialized rigging gear to dismantle trees piece by piece, protecting your home and garden from debris.

Tree Removal Costs in Lambeth

Price is a major concern for homeowners. While costs vary based on height, accessibility, and risk, here are the general price ranges for our area:

  • Small Trees (up to 30ft): $400 - $900

  • Medium to Large Trees: $900 - $2,000+

  • Hazardous Removals: $2,500+ (Projects requiring cranes or complex rigging)


Pro Tip: Emergency removals after a storm cost significantly more due to the immediate risk. It is always cheaper to remove a dangerous tree before it falls.
