Trees bring beauty and shade to your property, but sometimes they also bring hidden risks. Strong winds, heavy storms, or decay can turn a once-sturdy tree into a serious hazard. A falling tree can cause expensive damage—or worse, serious injuries. The good news? Spotting the warning signs early can help protect your home, your family, and your wallet. Here’s what to look for to keep your trees safe and standing strong.
Falling Branches
If you notice lots of dead branches on the ground, take a closer look at your tree. Trees that are struggling will start to send water and nutrients to the healthier branches, leaving the weaker ones to die. This happens often when trees have root rot. Keep your tree pruned and watch for the number of dead branches, so you can act if necessary.
Bare Branches
Deciduous trees (those that lose their leaves each winter) can give you clues to their health. If they don’t sprout new leaves during the growing season, that’s a sign of distress. If they lose their leaves too early in the fall, that could be concerning, too. These types of trees should lose their leaves from the outside in; if leaves die closer to the trunk or cling to branches rather than falling, the tree may have circulatory issues.
Cracks, Holes, or Split Trunks
Large holes, a split trunk, or deep cracks are signs of structural weakness. Trees with V-shaped trunk splits are especially vulnerable as their joints weaken over time. If your tree has a hollow section, it may attract nesting animals that can further damage it. An arborist may be needed to stabilize it in any of these cases.
Bald Spots and Bark Damage
A healthy tree will shed old bark and replace it with new growth. If bark is missing, peeling excessively, or has deep gashes and indents (known as cankers), it may be suffering from bacterial or fungal infections. You will need to clear those up or you risk losing the tree.
Fungus Growth
The presence of large fungi, such as wood conchs (bracket fungus), on the trunk suggests internal rot. Mushrooms growing at the base indicate that they may be feeding on rotting roots, which can weaken the tree’s foundation. You will need to act, either to resolve the issues caused by the fungus or remove the tree altogether.
Exposed Roots
Roots visible above ground may signal that the tree is no longer securely anchored. Cracked soil around the base can indicate roots are lifting, which increases the risk of the tree toppling over. This causes an immediate danger and should be resolved as soon as possible.
Vines Taking Over
While vines can add aesthetic appeal, they may also suffocate a tree by trapping moisture, leading to rot, blocking sunlight, and attracting insects. Carefully cut the vines at the base of the tree close to the ground, being careful not to damage the tree bark. (Avoid pulling the vines as that could damage the tree.) If the vine returns or is invasive, consult an expert to help you remove it.
Carpenter Ants
Large black ants on your tree may indicate an infestation. These ants prefer rotting wood, meaning your tree may already be compromised. Look for sawdust piles near the base as a telltale sign. If you suspect carpenter ants, get a professional consult. You may need to remove the tree.
Leaning Trees
Trees can naturally lean but be aware of when the angle is too much. A noticeable lean of 15 degrees or more could signal weak or rotted roots. Strong winds or loose soil can contribute to this issue. While some trees can be straightened if healthy, others may require removal.
Problematic Locations
Watch for changes in your trees in these scenarios:
Trees near water sources may become waterlogged, leading to root decay.
Poor drainage around trees on your property can weaken root systems.
Trees left exposed after nearby trees are removed may struggle with sudden changes in wind and sunlight.
Why You Should Act
Distressed or dying trees can pose a serious hazard. Not only are dead trees an eyesore, but they are also more prone to falling, potentially injuring someone or damaging your property. Additionally, dead trees attract pests like termites and rodents, which could spread to your home.

Imagine catching a leaky roof before it becomes a flood or spotting a crack in the foundation before it threatens your home’s stability. A yearly home maintenance inspection empowers you to identify small issues early, saving you time, money, and headaches. With a simple checklist and a little effort, you can keep your home in tip-top shape and avoid costly surprises down the road. Use this list as your guide to stay ahead of potential problems.
Gather Your Supplies
Binoculars (for roof inspection)
Flashlight (for inspecting dimly lit spaces)
Ladder (to reach roofs, gutters, and higher areas)
Electrical tester (to check outlets and circuits; ask your local hardware store for guidance)
Moisture meter (to detect hidden dampness)
Screwdriver set (for tightening fixtures and covers)
Smartphone or camera (to document areas of concern)
Notepad and pen (for notetaking and listing repairs that need to be made)
If you’re not comfortable doing a home inspection yourself, consider hiring a professional home inspector. This typically costs about the same as when you hire an inspector to check out a home you’re going to buy. When you are ready to make repairs, and you cannot do them yourself, make sure to hire a reputable contractor.
Finally, your home is one of your greatest investments. Be sure to protect it with the right insurance for added peace of mind.

Is your house trying to tell you something? From mysterious knocks to unsettling creaks, the noises in your home could be more than just background sounds—they might be early warnings of bigger issues. Listen closely, because ignoring these whispers from your walls could cost you more than a good night’s sleep.
Heating and Cooling Systems
Unusual sounds from your HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) system might mean that it’s struggling. Get these issues checked before you lose heat during the frigid winter months or cooling relief during the hottest time of year.
Squeaking or Squealing: Bearings in the motor may need oiling or a piece could be broken. You also could have a worn-out or misaligned fan belt. Ignoring this sound can lead to motor failure, so address this soon.
Whistling: This could be the sign of air leaks in the ductwork or a dirty air filter. Try replacing the filter first and see if the sound disappears. Filters should be replaced every three months.
Grinding: Moving parts aren’t operating smoothly or it could be worn-out bearings in the motor. Get that checked out.
Popping: This can indicate moisture or a clog in the gas line. It also could be expansion or contraction of the ductwork, especially when turning on the heat.
Clanking or Banging: This happens in air handlers or furnaces due to rusted or chipped metal, or soot buildup.
Clicking: A malfunctioning electrical relay could create a clicking sound.
Boiler Knocking: The circulation pump may be failing.
Hissing: This could signal a leak in the refrigerant line, or there could be an internal valve leak. The compressor pressure also could be too high.
Gurgling: You could be low on refrigerant or have a coolant leak.
Booming: There could be airflow issues where the ducts connect.
Buzzing: This sound could be caused by loose wiring, a failing motor, or capacitors that are malfunctioning.
Rattling: There may be loose parts within your unit, such as screws or fan blades.
Appliances
Unusual noises from appliances with motors might mean a mechanical problem. Homeowner warranties usually cover this type of issue.
Humming Dryer: Your clothes dryer could have an object caught in its blower.
Buzzing Refrigerator: The refrigerator could have an ailing compressor.
Grinding Dishwasher: If your dishwasher sputters or grinds, something could be stuck in its chopper blade.
Popping or Rumbling Water Heater: Water heaters operate almost silently, so if you hear sounds, don’t ignore them. Popping or rumbling could be due to sediment buildup on the bottom. It means it’s struggling to operate and might fail. You may need to flush the inside of the tank.
Noises from Gas Appliances: Don’t wait on gas appliances that are making noises. This may indicate a leak that could be serious.
Plumbing and Pipes
You want your plumbing and pipes to work properly. Water can cause significant damage if problems aren’t addressed in a timely manner.
Clanking: This sound could be a steam radiator that is not draining properly. It also could indicate a loose pipe. Get that fixed, as loose pipes moving around could lead to burst pipes.
Banging or Thumping: This is caused by water changing direction or being brought to a sudden halt. Usually, it doesn’t cause problems, but the sound can be annoying. You can buy a water hammer arrestor for appliances that reduce the noise.
Gurgling Toilet: This could indicate a plumbing backup somewhere. It could be a partially clogged drain, a problem with the flush value, a buildup of sediment in the tank, or inadequate venting in the plumbing system. You will want to call a plumber sooner than later.
Dripping: Water leaks inside a wall can lead to mold or mildew and can destroy insulation. Try to isolate where the dripping sound is coming from. Get professional help as needed.
Water Loss Test (water meter): If you cannot find the leak, try a water loss test. Look at the water meter and write down the reading. Stop all use of water in your home for 30 minutes. Do not flush the toilet or use the sink, tub, shower, dishwasher or washing machine. Turn off the ice maker and sprinkler. Then check the water meter at the end of the half hour. If the reading is unchanged, you do not have a leaky pipe. You could have a leaky toilet or appliance.
Water Loss Test (well water): If you have well water, you won’t have a water meter to check. Stop all water use and stand near your water pump for 30 minutes. Listen for clicking sounds from the pump which could indicate a water leak.
Lights and Outlets
The lights and outlets in your home are connected to the electrical system. When components of this system fail, it not only is frustrating but could be dangerous.
Humming, Buzzing, Hissing, Crackling or Popping (light switches and outlets): Buzzing is the sound of electricity arcing across a bad connection. If you hear buzzing from your light switch or outlet, or a hissing/crackling/popping sound, stop using it immediately and call an electrician.
Humming, Buzzing, Whining (bulbs or dimmers): If a fluorescent bulb is making the noise, it means a ballast likely needs to be replaced. That is the part that controls the voltage to the bulb. If the dimmer is making the noise, replace it. You can also try changing the bulb as some bulbs work better with dimmers.
Unexpected sounds from above or behind the walls might mean unwanted guests. Noises from your windows could signal hidden openings. Both could translate to expensive repairs if not addressed.
Skittering: This is the sound of critters in your home: raccoons, squirrels, birds, and even insects. The longer they are there, the more damage they can do, from chewing through wiring and insulation to giving birth to babies. When these animals die in your walls, they also cause an awful lingering odor. Take note of when you hear the sounds. Rodents are nocturnal. Call an exterminator. Be sure to search and seal the openings that allowed critters into your house or more could follow.
Buzzing: If you hear a buzzing sound in your walls, it could indicate a colony of bees making their nest there. Carpenter bees are especially known to do lots of damage by burrowing in your wood. Contact a professional pest removal service to safely get rid of this hazard.
Creaking and Squeaking (floors): These sounds could be the house settling, or they could be caused by temperature changes that result in the wood boards rubbing against each other. However, when the squeaking is accompanied by sagging or gaps in the floor, you will want to consult a professional.
Whistling (windows): Whistling sounds could point to improper installation, worn weather stripping, or poor seals. Check the seal around your windows for signs of wear, and caulk or reseal as needed.
Rattling (windows): Something is not fitting quite right if you hear rattling. Get it checked out as this could lead to cracks in the glass.
Your home is your greatest investment. Keep up with winter home maintenance and protect your home with the right insurance for added peace of mind.

There’s no place like home. It’s where life unfolds, memories are made, and your most treasured belongings reside. Protecting it means safeguarding not only your possessions but also your sense of security. From simple habits to smart upgrades, here are some practical tips that keep your home safe and your peace of mind intact.
Secure your doors and windows.
Your doors and windows are the primary entry points to your home, so it’s essential to ensure they only welcome invited guests. Here’s how to keep them secure.
Check and maintain locks: Regularly inspect locks on doors and windows. Repair or replace any that are broken or show signs of wear.
Lock up when you leave: Always keep doors and windows closed and locked when you’re not at home to deter unwanted visitors.
Install window alarms: Affordable, adhesive window alarms are a simple way to deter burglars. These devices emit a loud sound if tampered with, scaring off potential threats.
Enhance front door visibility: Ensure you can see who’s at your door without opening it, whether through a peephole, camera, or nearby window. This reduces the risk of letting in uninvited visitors.
Light your home inside and out.
Lighting isn’t just about setting the right mood—it’s also a powerful tool for keeping your home secure.
Illuminate the exterior: Ensure outdoor areas like entryways, driveways, and pathways are well-lit to make your property less appealing to unwanted visitors.
Use layered lighting: Combine porch lights, path lights, and landscape lighting to eliminate dark spots around your home, making it harder for anyone to hide.
Install motion sensor lights: These lights activate with movement, startling potential intruders and drawing attention to their presence.
Automate your lighting: Use a smart device or timer to turn lights on and off when you’re away. This creates the illusion that someone is home.
Landscape your yard with safety in mind.
Take a look at your landscaping. Are there spots where intruders could hide, or easy access points like tree branches that could lead to an upstairs window?
Clear overgrown areas: Remove any dense bushes, tall grass, or other overgrown spots that could provide hiding places near your home.
Trim trees: Ensure tree branches are cut back so they don’t offer a foothold to access upper windows or levels.
Secure your outdoor valuables: Make sure that your grill, lawn mower, and bicycles are out of sight. Lock your shed and your garage.
Walk your property: Approach your home as if you were a stranger. Look for areas where an intruder could observe your comings and goings without being noticed. Take action to eliminate those hiding spots.
Invest in a security system.
A professionally installed security system not only deters burglars but also alerts authorities in the event of a break-in.
Keep your alarm panel hidden: Avoid placing your alarm panel in view of the outside, where someone could see you arming or disarming it.
Test your system regularly: Ensure your security system is functioning properly by testing it periodically.
Address faulty alarms: If your alarm goes off frequently for no reason, that can cause it to be ignored. Have it repaired. Then tell your neighbors it is fixed.
Advertise your security system: Display a window sticker or lawn sign to let potential intruders know your home is protected.
Don’t advertise to potential intruders.
Sharing certain information or leaving items visible can attract burglars and provide them with the perfect opportunity to strike. Protect your home by taking these precautions.
Keep valuables out of sight: Avoid placing valuable items where they’re visible from the street, such as near windows or in open garages. Keep your most important items in a safe.
Secure garage windows and doors: Frost or cover garage windows to prevent anyone from peeking inside and always keep the garage door closed when not in use.
Be cautious on social media: Avoid posting about recent purchases. Don’t share vacation photos while you’re away.
Avoid obvious signals: Never leave notes on your door indicating you’re not home.
Don’t leave spare keys outside: Common hiding spots like under a planter or welcome mat are the first places burglars will check. Instead, leave a spare key with a trusted neighbor or friend.
Don’t have packages on your porch.
Porch pirates are a common danger in many neighborhoods, but a few simple steps can make it harder for them to steal your deliveries.
Choose secure delivery locations: Have packages delivered to a secure pickup location or a locker if possible.
Request signature confirmation: Require a signature for delivery to ensure someone is home to receive the package.
Disguise your disposal: Avoid leaving branded boxes from expensive items, like TVs, in your trash or recycling where they’re visible. Break them down and conceal them to avoid drawing attention.
Establish a home safety network.
Do the things you need to do on a regular basis to check in on security for your home and your area.
Get to know your neighbors: Build a network of trust by watching out for each other’s homes and reporting any suspicious activity.
Connect with local police: Ask local law enforcement about past incidents in your area so you can take precautions against those types of incidents.
Plan for when you are away: Stop mail deliveries or ask a trusted neighbor to collect your mail, newspapers, etc. Arrange for services like lawn care, snow removal, or garbage pickup to make your home appear occupied.
Finally protect your home and your belongings with the right insurance, including personal property coverage. Taking these steps gives you peace of mind and ensures your home is protected no matter where life takes you.

We understand that changes to insurance premiums can be concerning, and we want to help you understand the factors that influence your rates. Insurance rates are determined by a combination of external conditions and personal policy coverage selections. Below, we’ll explain some of the most common reasons rates can increase and what changes in your policy could impact your premium.
External Factors That Can Cause Rate Increases
1. Rising Costs of Repairs and Replacements
For auto insurance, advanced technology in vehicles, like sensors and cameras, makes repairs more expensive. In the case of a total loss, rising prices for new and used vehicles drives up the cost of replacement. Similarly, home insurance is impacted by increasing prices for building materials and labor, making it more costly to repair or rebuild homes after a loss.
2. Weather and Natural Disasters
Severe weather events, such as wildfires, floods, and hailstorms, are happening more frequently and with greater intensity. These events lead to higher claim payouts and cause insurance rates to rise, even in areas that haven’t been directly affected.
3. Inflation
General inflation affects nearly every industry, including insurance. The rising cost of goods and services —from everything associated with a minor vehicle repair all the way to restoring extensive home damage, like parts, materials, labor, rental cars, temporary housing, legal and medical expenses —can result in an adjustment of premiums to align with the amount that is paid out on claims.
4. Increased Claim Frequency
More claims being filed—whether due to a rise in car accidents, litigation, or property damage—paired with increased claims costs can lead to paying out more on claims than what is collected in premium. When this happens, a rate increase can occur.
5. Reassessment of Risks
Insurance companies regularly re-evaluate risks in specific areas. If you live in a region that’s seen more accidents, theft, or natural disasters, your premiums may increase to reflect the heightened risk.
How Policy Changes or Adjustments Affect Your Premium
1. Adding or Removing Coverage
Expanding your coverage—such as adding comprehensive auto coverage or increasing your home insurance policy limits—will raise your premium. Conversely, reducing coverage may lower your rate but could leave you underinsured.
2. Adjusting Deductibles
Choosing a higher deductible typically lowers your premium since you agree to pay more out-of-pocket in the event of a claim. However, a lower deductible means your insurer covers more upfront, which increases your premium.
3. Policy Discounts and Loss of Discounts
We offer many discounts including affiliated group membership, bundling auto and home, multi-vehicle, safe driving, home security, non-smoking, good student, mature driver, etc. If you no longer qualify for a discount, your rate may increase.
4. Changes in Your Personal Profile
Life changes such as adding a new driver to your policy, changes to the number or type of covered vehicles, or moving to a different area can impact your premiums.
5. Claims History or Driving Record
Filing a claim can result in higher premiums at renewal. Additionally, if a ticket or accident is charged against your driving record, you may be subject to a surcharge that will likely raise your rates.
How You Can Help Manage Your Premiums
While some factors are out of your control, there are steps you can take to keep your premiums manageable:
Bundle Policies:Combining your auto and home insurance or having multiple vehicles on one policy can help you save more.
Review Your Coverage: Call us for a free policy review to make sure you’re not paying for coverage you don’t need.
Increase Your Deductibles: Opting for a higher deductible can lower your premium but be prepared to cover more out-of-pocket costs in the event of a claim.
Maintain a Safe Driving Record:Avoid accidents and traffic violations to keep your auto insurance costs down.
Home Upgrades: A new roof, installing alarms, fire-resistive updates, or upgrading plumbing, electrical or HVAC systems can help you qualify for discounts.
Ask About Discounts: Let us know if there have been changes, like completing a mature driving course, a child away at school without a vehicle, or reaching a milestone like retirement. We also offer discounts for multi-home, years claim free, good student, safe driving, and driver training for youthful drivers

Thinking of adding a furry friend to your family? Or maybe your relatives are bringing their four-legged companion for a visit? Either way, ensuring your home is safe and welcoming for pets is important. From curious kittens to energetic pups exploring every corner, pet-proofing your space is essential to prevent mishaps. With a few simple tweaks, you can create a cozy and secure environment that’s perfect for both pets and people. Here’s a room-by-room guide.
Family Room/Living Room
Furnishings: Pets love to jump, even if you don’t allow them on your furniture. Make sure it’s safe in case they get up there. Remove furniture that moves when jumped on (rocking chairs and chairs with wheels), and don’t leave reclining chairs open. They can close from the momentum of the jump, entrapping your pet. Add anti-scratch tape to the couch and other furniture to discourage scratching.
Cords and wires: Pets love to play with dangling wires. Make sure cords from lamps, TVs, and other appliances are out of reach or taped down. You can use a pet-safe bitter apple spray to deter chewing. Cover electric cords or put them away when not in use. Follow guidelines for extension cord safety.
Knickknacks and toys: Be prepared for décor and knickknacks to be knocked over. Keep them out of reach of curious pets. Remove children’s toys to avoid damage and potential choking hazards.
House plants: Many plants can be poisonous to pets. Move them out of reach, possibly to a room where the door is closed so pets have no access. Fortunately, there are many pet-friendly plants that you and your fur baby can both enjoy.
Fireplace and heaters: Place dog beds and blankets away from fireplaces or heaters. Block off access to the fireplace for pets just as you would for young children.
Windows: Pets love to look out the window. Make sure your windows are closed. Install window guards so curious pets don’t accidentally fall through.
Kitchen
Cabinets: Pets can pry open cabinets. Add childproof latches to cabinets within their reach so curious paws and noses can’t get in.
Stove: Put up a stove guard to keep cats from jumping on a hot surface. Always supervise cooking. Don’t leave your stove unattended with pets in the house.
Dishwasher: Close the dishwasher when not in use. Dishwasher detergent has chemicals that can cause severe irritation to the mouth and well as gastrointestinal upset. Plus, sharp objects like knives with food residue can be enticing for pets, and cause injury.
Counters: Food can entice pets to jump up on counters. Even if the food is safe for them to eat, you don’t want them there. Store food in containers with tightly closed lids or in the fridge. Layering aluminum foil can keep cats from jumping on counters.
Trash cans: Keep garbage in pet-safe trash containers. Some are heavy enough so they can’t easily be knocked over and others come with locks. You can also tuck trash cans away in a closet or cabinet.
Bathroom
Cleaners: Store cleaning products and other hazardous chemicals out of reach to keep curious pets safe. Consider using cabinet latches to secure lower cabinets, and for dogs, placing items on high shelves can provide extra protection.
Medication: Always store medications in a secure cabinet or drawer. Even small amounts of medications can be toxic to pets if ingested.
Toilet: Keep the toilet lid closed to prevent pets from drinking water that may contain harmful chemicals. Use a toilet roll protector to keep playful pets from making a mess.
Accessories and bath items: Keep small items like hair accessories, loofahs, and razors out of reach. These items can pose choking or ingestion risks and laceration hazards.
Hair-styling heat tools: Always unplug and store curling irons, straighteners, and other heat tools immediately after use to prevent burns or accidents.
Bedroom
Closets: Keep closet doors closed to prevent pets from accessing laundry or shoes. Items like drawstrings, buttons, or small accessories can be dangerous if chewed or swallowed. Don’t forget to check under the bed for loose socks or undergarments and store them safely out of reach.
Curtain Cords: Dangling cords can be irresistibly tempting for pets but pose serious risks of entanglement or injury. Tie them up securely or opt for cordless window treatments to eliminate the hazard.
Bedside Table: Store medications, lotions, and cosmetics in drawers or on higher shelves, away from curious noses and paws. These items can be harmful if ingested.
Charging Cables and Electrical Cords: Keep electrical cords out of reach to prevent chewing, which can lead to electric shocks or burns. Charge devices on a high shelf, and tuck away charging cables when not in use.
Other Spaces
General: Use pet gates to section off certain areas for dogs. Keep in mind that gates are less effective for cats, as they can climb or jump over them.
Laundry Room: Always keep washer and dryer doors closed. Before starting the dryer, ensure no pets, especially cats, have climbed inside. Block small spaces behind washer and dryer units to prevent pets from getting stuck. Store dryer sheets in a sealed container on a high shelf; they contain chemicals that can cause gastrointestinal upset, skin irritation, and other serious health issues.
Garage: Store chemicals like antifreeze, paints, and cleaners on high shelves or behind locked doors. Clean any antifreeze spills immediately—just a small amount can be lethal if ingested. Keep sharp tools and objects safely stored and remove any mouse or insect traps that could harm pets.
Yard: Avoid letting pets into the yard immediately after applying pest control chemicals. Check that all outdoor plants are safe and non-toxic for pets. Repair holes in fences to prevent pets from escaping. Store lawn and gardening tools securely when not in use. Keep pets away from compost piles, mulch, and fertilizers, which can be harmful if ingested. Choose a pet-safe ice melt for your property during the winter months.
Balconies and Swimming Pools: Block access to balconies or use barriers to prevent falls, especially for small pets. Restrict access to swimming pools when not supervised to prevent drowning accidents.
Finally, don’t forget to protect your fur baby with pet insurance for added peace of mind, and to save on your vet bill. Remember, you can easily add pet insurance from Pet’s Best to your California Casualty auto or home policy.
