Spring is Coming, But Your Trees Aren’t Out of the Woods Yet

Winter may be winding down, but that doesn’t mean your trees are in the clear. The Pacific Northwest has endured months of rain, wind, and even some snow, all of which can leave trees vulnerable and unstable. As we approach spring, it’s important to assess the damage that winter storms may have caused and determine whether any trees pose a risk to your home, business, or community spaces.

At P’n’D Logging and Tree Service, we specialize in emergency tree removal and storm damage cleanup. If a tree has become a hazard, our low-impact crane tree removal service ensures the safest and most efficient solution—without tearing up your landscaping in the process.

How Winter Weather Weakens Trees

While trees are built to withstand the elements, extended exposure to severe weather takes its toll. In the Puget Sound region, December receives the highest average rainfall, soaking the ground and weakening root systems. Rain-saturated soil makes trees more susceptible to uprooting, especially when combined with the high winds that frequently roll through the area.

Windstorms alone can wreak havoc on already stressed trees. Gusts exceeding 50 mph have been recorded in Washington during winter storms, and when strong winds hit weakened branches, cracks, or decayed trunks, the results can be disastrous. Fallen limbs damage homes, block roadways, and take out power lines, leaving costly destruction in their wake.

Even trees that remain standing may have sustained damage that isn’t immediately visible. Internal decay, cracked trunks, and partially uprooted trees may not show obvious signs of failure until the next storm—or until it’s too late.

The Importance of Fast Emergency Tree Removal

When a tree falls, time is of the essence. Large trees can block driveways, crush fences, or create unsafe conditions around homes and businesses. Waiting too long to remove them increases risks, as unstable trees or branches can shift unexpectedly.

At P’n’D Logging and Tree Service, we provide fast, safe, and efficient emergency tree removal. Our process ensures minimal disruption to your property while addressing hazards as quickly as possible.
