Tree Care in Edgewood, WA

If you're looking at the trees in your Edgewood yard and feeling uneasy, there's a good reason. Most of the homes here were built around 1984, which means the trees are now about 42 years old. That's the age when problems from poor planting choices become impossible to ignore. Builders often used fast-growing trees for quick shade and curb appeal, like silver maples with their brittle wood and invasive roots, or Bradford pears that are practically guaranteed to split apart. Now, these mature trees are large assets, but also potential liabilities over your home and driveway. Your native giants, like the Douglas Fir and Western Red Cedar, are better adapted but still need proper care to withstand our wet winters and avoid issues like Laminated Root Rot.
