[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in an area along GW Parkway that has a lot of flooding & puddling up in backyards after rainstorms. Our yard, however never floods. A friend of ours who is an arborist said it is due to the four big trees in our yard. he said never take them out because they suck up lot of water and our backyard looks great. [/quote] Haha he's wrong . Trees don't prevent erosion as much as grass and proper perc beds. Sounds like he wants to keep his business going.[/quote] If he wanted to drum up business, he would have "claimed" the trees should come down. That is what happened when a neighbor tried to send an arborist around our neighborhood. The arborist, understandably, saw dollar signs, and wanted to take everything down - why wouldn't he? OP, be careful about what "arborists" claim, and be sure to get more than two opinions. [/quote]
