Tree Care in Peabody, MA

If you're looking at the mature trees in your Peabody yard, you're likely seeing the legacy of the 1960s building boom. Many of the homes here were built around 1966, and the landscaping choices made then are causing problems now. Builders often planted fast-growing trees like silver maple and Norway maple for quick shade. Silver maples have weak wood and aggressive surface roots that can damage foundations, while Norway maples are invasive and create dense shade that kills your lawn and prevents new plants from growing. These trees are now 60 years old and entering a high-risk phase for branch failure or uprooting during our frequent storms.
