Tree Care in Hampton, MD

If you're looking at the trees in your Hampton yard and feeling uneasy, there's a good reason. Many of the large trees here are now 60 to 80 years old, planted when these neighborhoods were built. Builders often chose fast-growing species for quick shade and curb appeal, like silver maples and Bradford pears. We now know these trees have inherent problems. Silver maple wood is weak and its roots can be aggressive, while a Bradford pear is practically guaranteed to split apart after 15 to 20 years. These legacy choices are reaching the end of their natural lifespan, which is why so many homeowners are dealing with large, risky limbs or worried about the next storm.
