Tree Care in Yarmouth Port, MA

If you're looking at the trees in your Yarmouth Port yard and wondering about their health, you're not alone. Many of the issues we see here, from cracked driveways to sudden limb drop, trace back to decisions made when these homes were built. In the late 1970s, builders often chose fast-growing trees for quick shade and curb appeal. That means many of your 47-year-old properties are now home to mature silver maples, known for their weak wood and aggressive surface roots, or Bradford pears, which are beautiful but structurally guaranteed to split apart after 15 to 20 years. These trees are now at the age where their inherent weaknesses become real liabilities during our eight annual storm events. The good news is that native species like the white oak and sugar maple, which were here long before the neighborhoods, are far better suited to our cool-humid climate and sandy soils.
