Tree Care in Hurstbourne, KY

If you're looking at the trees in your Hurstbourne yard and feeling uneasy, there's a good reason. Most homes here were built in the late 1970s, which means your landscape trees are now about 50 years old. That's the age when common builder-planted species like silver maple and Bradford pear begin to show their fatal flaws. Silver maples have weak wood and surface roots that can damage foundations, while every Bradford pear is structurally guaranteed to split apart. These weren't bad choices for a new subdivision, but they were the wrong long-term trees for this place. Now, with our 48 inches of annual rain and over 30 storm events a year, those inherent weaknesses become real liabilities during our humid Kentucky summers and winter wind shifts.
