Tree Care in Malden, MA

If you're looking at the trees in your Malden yard and feeling uneasy, there's a good reason. Many of the large trees here were planted when these homes were built in the 1940s, and builders often chose species for fast growth, not long-term stability. You'll see a lot of silver maples, known for their aggressive surface roots that can damage foundations and sidewalks, and Norway maples, which crowd out our native sugar maples and red oaks. The problem is that you can't see inside a tree from the outside. A tree can look perfectly healthy for years while decay is spreading inside the trunk, a weakness that only reveals itself during one of our 34 annual storm events.
