Tree Care in Topstone, CT

If you're looking at the trees in your Topstone yard and feeling uneasy, there's a good reason. Many of the mature trees here were planted when these neighborhoods were built in the 1960s. Builders often chose fast-growing species for quick shade and curb appeal, which means you're likely living with the consequences now. That beautiful silver maple near your driveway has weak wood and aggressive surface roots that can damage pavement. The ornamental Bradford pear in your front yard is almost guaranteed to split at its weak, narrow branch unions, especially after 20 years. The problem isn't that the trees are old, it's that they were the wrong choice from the start. In our cool-humid climate with 48 inches of annual rain, these structural flaws are put to the test during our frequent storms.
