Sending pictures f the suspect tress. Is it possible for someone to come and check them out in person? IMG 4076 and IMG 4077 are two views of the smae tree, IMG 40798 is one that lost a very long branch due to strong winds during a storm.

Hi, 

Unfortunately, we don't do site visits and would defer to a certified arborist or licensed tree professional for their opinion anyways. 

It would be good to have them look at the safety of the trees, especially if they could damage anything if they were to fall. You can search for one in your area using the links provided. You can also consult with us based on their recommendations if you'd like another opinion.
