Tree Care in Point Lookout, NY

Point Lookout, your trees are a product of history. Most of the homes here were built around 1938, which means the trees planted for instant shade and curb appeal are now mature, 80-plus-year-old specimens. We see this legacy daily: the towering Silver Maple with its weak, brittle wood and surface roots that heave sidewalks, or the once-popular Bradford Pear, which is structurally guaranteed to split apart in our coastal winds. The problem isn't that the trees are old; it's that they were often the wrong choice for the long term. You can't see inside a tree from the outside. What looks like a healthy canopy can hide years of internal decay, a hidden weakness that only becomes apparent when a major limb fails during one of our nine annual storm events.
