Tree Care in West Hills, NY

If you're looking at the trees in your West Hills yard and feeling uneasy, there's a good reason. Many of the mature trees here were planted when these homes were built in the 1960s, and builders often chose species for fast growth, not long-term health. You'll see this legacy in the silver maples with their brittle, storm-prone limbs and the Bradford pears that are now reaching the age where their weak branch unions are guaranteed to split. The problem is, you can't see the decay inside from the outside. What looks like a solid trunk can be hollow, and symptoms like small leaves or dead branches often appear years after the internal problem starts. That's why professional assessment is critical for trees of this age in our 7b climate zone.
