Tree Care in St. Davids, PA

If you're looking at the trees in your St. Davids yard and feeling uneasy, there's a good reason. Most of the homes here were built around 1958, which means the trees are now about 68 years old. That's the age when many common builder-planted species begin to show serious structural flaws. You'll see this in the silver maples, chosen for their fast growth but now with weak wood and surface roots that threaten foundations and sidewalks. You'll also see it in the Bradford pears, which were planted for their beautiful spring blooms but are structurally guaranteed to split apart after 15-20 years. These problems were set in motion decades ago by planting the wrong tree in the wrong place for instant curb appeal. Now, as mature specimens, they require knowledgeable assessment to manage the risks they present to your property.
