From the Janesville Crew
In Janesville, southern wisconsin snow, freezing rain, ice accumulation, thunderstorms, and strong winds regularly damage janesville's mature trees and leave dangerous hanging limbs. We treat every dead tree as higher-risk than a live one of the same size, because you can't read a dead tree's grain the same way once it's lost its bark.

Dead Tree Removal FAQs for Janesville Homeowners
How can I tell if my tree is dead versus dormant?
A dead tree typically shows bark sloughing, no buds in spring, and brittle branches that snap cleanly rather than bending -- we can confirm on a free estimate.
Is a dead tree more dangerous to remove?
Yes, dead wood is more unpredictable under tension, so our crew uses more conservative rigging and drop-zone planning than on a comparable live tree.
Should I remove a dead tree even if it's not near anything?
Even an isolated dead tree can fail unpredictably in wind, and removing it on your schedule is safer and usually cheaper than waiting for an emergency.
