Tree Care in Rowland Heights, CA

Rowland Heights has a unique tree story. Most homes here were built in the 1970s, which means the trees on your property are now about 50 years old and reaching full maturity. That's when problems from the original landscaping choices become obvious. You'll see this with two common species: the Ficus, whose aggressive surface roots can crack driveways and foundations, and the Mexican Fan Palm, which becomes a major liability in our few annual wind storms as its heavy fronds and skirt become dangerous. The biggest issue I see isn't a pest, it's irrigation. The daily lawn sprinkler cycle that keeps grass green is actively harming your trees by training their roots to stay shallow, making them unstable and drought-vulnerable.
