Tree Care in North Babylon, NY

If you're looking at the trees in your North Babylon yard and feeling uneasy, there's a good reason. Many of the homes here were built in the 1960s, and the builders often chose trees for speed, not longevity. You'll see a lot of silver maples and Bradford pears from that era. Silver maples grow fast but have weak wood and aggressive surface roots that can damage walkways. Bradford pears are beautiful for about 15 years, but their branch structure is guaranteed to split, often during one of our 24 annual storm events. The problem is you can't see the decay inside from the outside. By the time a cavity or crack is visible, the internal failure may have been progressing for years. That's why a professional assessment is critical for safety.
