Tree Care in Deephaven, MN

If you're a Deephaven homeowner, you're likely living with the landscaping decisions of the late 1950s. The builders who established our neighborhoods chose trees for fast growth and instant shade, not for a 70-year lifespan. That's why you see so many mature silver maples with their aggressive surface roots and weak wood, or the once-popular green ash trees that are now standing deadwood due to Emerald Ash Borer. These trees were set up for problems from the start. A storm here isn't just about high wind. The most dangerous pattern is a sustained wind from one direction, like off Lake Minnetonka, followed by a sudden shift. This fatigues trees with pre-existing weaknesses, often at the root plate or in poorly attached limbs, leading to failure.
