If a tree is leaning, has large dead branches hanging over your house or power lines, shows signs of disease (cankers, holes, missing bark patches), or has roots lifting your foundation or driveway, don't wait—call someone. Similarly, any tree work that requires climbing more than 15 feet up or working near power lines is not a DIY job. A local pro can assess whether a tree is actually dying or just stressed, whether a lean is structural or just cosmetic, and whether removal or pruning will solve your problem.
For the judgment calls: a few small dead branches scattered through the canopy usually aren't urgent. A tree dropping whole limbs, one that's cracked or split at the trunk, or one that leans noticeably more after a storm needs attention within days. Root damage to hardscaping or signs of pest damage (sawdust, galleries under bark) should be checked soon. Trees growing too close to your roof or touching power lines during wind season should be trimmed before the next storm, not after.
