Tree Care in Hillandale, MD

If you're looking at the trees in your Hillandale yard and feeling uneasy, there's a good reason. Many of the homes here were built in the early 1960s, which means the trees are now about 64 years old. That's the age when common builder-planted species start showing serious structural flaws. You'll see this in the silver maples, known for their weak wood and aggressive surface roots that can damage foundations and sidewalks, and the Bradford pears, which are almost guaranteed to split at their weak branch unions during one of our 23 annual storm events. The problem isn't that the trees are old. It's that the wrong tree was planted in the wrong place decades ago for quick curb appeal, without considering the long-term health and safety of your property.
