Tree Care in Fox Chapel, PA

If you're a Fox Chapel homeowner, you're likely living with trees that are about 60 years old, planted when your house was built. That means you have mature sugar maples, red oaks, and white oaks reaching their full size, which is a beautiful asset. It also means you may have legacy problems from the fast-growing species builders favored back then, like silver maples with weak wood and aggressive surface roots, or Bradford pears that are now at the age where their poor structure almost guarantees a major split. Our cool-humid climate with 44 inches of rain creates saturated soils, which is a key factor in how mature trees fail during our frequent storms. Understanding this specific history and environment is the first step in protecting your property.
