Tree Care in Cottontown, TN

If you're looking at the trees around your Cottontown home and feeling uneasy, there's a good reason. Most of the residential trees in our neighborhoods were planted when these houses were built, around 50 years ago. Builders often chose species for quick growth, not long-term stability. That's why you see so many mature silver maples with their wide, surface roots threatening foundations and sidewalks, and Bradford pears that are now at the age where their weak, narrow branch unions are guaranteed to split. Our local climate, with over 54 inches of annual rain and nearly 20 storm events a year, creates saturated soils that make these structurally weak trees a genuine liability during high winds.
