Tree Care in Lido Beach, NY

If you're looking at the trees in your Lido Beach yard, you're likely seeing the legacy of the 1950s and 60s. Builders back then often chose fast-growing trees for quick shade and curb appeal, which means many properties here are now home to mature silver maples or Bradford pears. These species have significant problems. A silver maple's weak wood and aggressive roots can threaten your foundation, while a Bradford pear is practically guaranteed to split apart after 15-20 years. The challenge is that internal decay can be hidden for years before a branch fails. We use tools like sounding with a mallet to listen for hollow spots, because what you see on the outside often tells only part of the story.
