Tree Care in Eagles Mere, PA

If you're looking at the trees around your Eagles Mere home and wondering about their health, you're not alone. Most properties here have trees that are about 65 years old, planted when these homes were built in the 1960s. Back then, builders often chose fast-growing species for quick shade and curb appeal. That's why you'll see a lot of silver maples and Norway maples in the area. Silver maples grow quickly, but their weak wood and aggressive surface roots can become a real problem for foundations and driveways as they mature. Norway maples, while common, are not native and can crowd out our beautiful local species like sugar maple and red oak. The challenge is that a tree can look fine from the outside for years while decay is spreading inside the trunk, a hidden risk you can't afford to ignore during our 3.7 average annual storm events.
