Tree Care in Pinehurst, MA

If you're looking at the trees in your Pinehurst yard, you're likely seeing the legacy of the late 1960s and 70s. That's when most of our neighborhoods were built, and builders often chose trees for fast growth and instant shade. The problem is that many of those species, like silver maple and Bradford pear, were the wrong choice for the long term. Silver maples have weak wood and aggressive surface roots that can damage foundations and sidewalks. Bradford pears are beautiful for about 15 years, but their branch structure is fundamentally flawed and they are almost guaranteed to split apart during one of our 34 annual storm events. In our cool-humid climate with 42 inches of rain, these inherent weaknesses become liabilities.
