Tree Hazard Evaluations in Salem, Oregon and Surrounding Areas
At J & J Stump & Tree Removal, we offer expert tree hazard evaluations to help property owners inSalem, Oregon, and the surrounding areas identify and manage potential risks before they become emergencies. With over 30 years of experience in tree care, we know how to spot the early warning signs of hazardous trees and provide honest, professional recommendations to keep your property safe.
Trees add beauty, shade, and value to your landscape—but when they become unstable or diseased, they can pose a serious threat to your home, vehicles, and personal safety. In the Willamette Valley, heavy rain, windstorms, and wet soil conditions can increase the risk of tree failure. That’s why routine evaluations are an important part of responsible property maintenance.
Our hazard evaluation process begins with a thorough visual inspection of each tree’s structure, root system, and overall health. We look for key warning signs such as:
- Cracks or splits in the trunk or major limbs
- Hollow or decaying sections
- Leaning or unstable posture
- Fungal growth near the base
- Exposed or damaged roots
- Dead or hanging branches
- Signs of pest infestation or disease

We also take into account the tree’s proximity to buildings, fences, driveways, and power lines, as well as how recent storms may have impacted its stability. After the evaluation, we provide you with a clear explanation of our findings and recommend the most appropriate next steps. In some cases, trimming or cabling may help extend the life of the tree; in other cases, removal may be the safest option.
