Tree Care in Fairway, KS

Fairway, your trees are a product of their time. Most homes here were built around 1952, which means the trees in your yard are now about 74 years old. That's the typical lifespan for many of the fast-growing species builders favored, like silver maple and Siberian elm. They were planted for quick shade, but their weak wood and aggressive root systems are now a mature liability. You can't see inside a tree from the outside. A hollow trunk can look perfectly solid until a storm hits. We see this often with older silver maples, where internal decay from decades of stress finally gives way during our 35-plus annual storm events.
