Yes. Trees with significant lean (especially recent lean from root failure or wind events) can fail without warning, particularly in saturated soil or under load. Lean alone does not always indicate imminent failure — some trees grew leaning naturally and are stable. B. Haney and Sons Arborists arborists in West Townshend evaluate root condition, lean angle, and trunk integrity to assess actual risk.
Standard homeowner policies in Vermont usually do not cover removal of hazardous trees that have not yet failed. They cover removal AFTER the tree falls on a structure. Some policies cover hazardous tree removal if the tree is imminently threatening insured structures. B. Haney and Sons Arborists can document the hazard for West Townshend insurance claims, but coverage decisions are between you and your carrier.
Hazardous trees in West Townshend have compromised wood that cannot bear normal rigging loads. We use smaller sections, more conservative cuts, frequent crane support, and additional safety personnel. The result is a slower, more deliberate takedown — worth the cost to protect property and people, but more labor-intensive than healthy-tree work.
Real feedback from property owners who trusted B. Haney and Sons Arborists with their tree care.
"Used B. Haney for emergency storm cleanup after a derecho came through. Three trees down, one on the garage. Their crew was on-site within hours, coordinated with our insurance adjuster, and had the property cleared in two days. The B. Haney name still means something in tree care."
"I have been using B. Haney for our property for years. They prune our maples every other winter and the trees have never looked healthier. There is something to be said for hiring an arborist company that has been doing this since 1940 — the experience shows in every cut."
"The crew leader took the time to walk me through exactly what they were going to do before they started cutting. That kind of communication is rare. The work itself was textbook professional and our trees are in great shape."
