Tree Care in East Village, CT

If you're looking at the trees in your East Village yard and feeling uneasy, there's a good reason. Many of the homes here were built around 1979, which means the trees are now about 47 years old. That's the age when problems from poor planting choices become obvious. You'll see mature silver maples with massive, surface-level roots that threaten sidewalks and foundations, or Bradford pear trees that are starting to split apart at their weak, narrow branch unions. These were popular builder choices for quick shade, but they weren't built to last in our climate with its 52 inches of annual rain and 16.9 storm events a year. The good news is your native trees, like the red oaks and sugar maples, are far better suited and, with proper care, can be your property's greatest asset for decades to come.
