Tree Care in West Mountain, CT

If you're looking at the trees on your West Mountain property and feeling uneasy, there's a good reason. Most of the homes here were built in the late 1970s, 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 this in the silver maples, which were planted for fast growth but now have weak wood and surface roots that threaten foundations and driveways. You'll also see it in the Bradford pears, which are beautiful for about 15 years before their poor structure guarantees major limbs will split and fall. The core issue isn't that the trees are old, it's that they were the wrong tree for this place from the start.
