Are Lakewood’s big silver maples worth saving?
Tree Care Conditions Unique to Lakewood
Lakewood’s mid-century neighborhoods — the blocks around Morse Park, Eiber, and Applewood’s edges — hold one of the metro’s great silver maple canopies, planted with the houses in the ’50s and ’60s and now seventy years old: huge, hollow-prone, and overdue for structural honesty. A big share of our Lakewood work is exactly that — cabling and reduction pruning to keep the good ones, staged removals for the ones past saving. Belmar and the newer infill add younger plantings with the opposite needs. West, the city climbs Green Mountain and the hogback: homes against open space where defensible-space thinning matters, plus steeper lots and more wind than the flats. Bear Creek and its lakes corridor carry the big riparian cottonwoods every floodplain does. And Lakewood’s sheer size means microclimates — an Applewood ash and a Union Boulevard honeylocust live different lives, and the assessment has to know the difference.
Species snapshot for Lakewood: seventy-year silver maples are the west side’s signature and its structural project; ash fills the mid-century blocks; Bear Creek carries the cottonwood giants; and the Green Mountain edge runs to juniper and fire-relevant natives. When a Lakewood maple is sound, it’s worth every cable; when it isn’t, honesty beats sentiment From Morse Park’s maples to Green Mountain’s edge, the whole west side is home ground for our crews – and every estimate is free..

The Lakewood Tree Calendar
The seventy-year-old maple canopy sets Lakewood’s rhythm: late-winter dormant season is when their structure is legible and cabling or reduction work is cleanest – and it beats the wet spring snows that find every weak union in Morse Park and Eiber. Green Mountain-edge defensible-space thinning belongs in spring, ahead of fire weather. Bear Creek corridor cottonwood checks fit late summer under full load. Ash decisions across Lakewood’s mid-century blocks are spring work, ahead of borer flight. And post-windstorm structural checks after the west side’s downslope events catch tomorrow’s failures while they’re still cables instead of removals.
A Lakewood-specific economy worth knowing: reduction pruning plus a cable on a sound seventy-year maple typically costs a fraction of its removal – and buys a decade or more of shade that new plantings need forty years to replace. The math favors preservation more often than people expect; the assessment tells you when it doesn’t.
