Briarcliff Manor is a village in Westchester County, NY. It is located about 30 miles north of New York City. It covers an area of about 6 square miles and is home to over 7,000 people. The village is part of the Pocantico, Saw Mill River, and Lower Hudson River Drainage Basins. This makes the area a friendly place for tree growth. Many of the properties in Briarcliff manor feature trees.
Trees are wonderful to have on a property, but only when it is safe to do so. Trees that are diseased or too close to a property can be a serious safety concern. Diseased trees can fall over or have limbs break off and injure someone or damage property. Tree roots can also extend up to 1.5 times the height of the tree. That means that large trees can easily reach the foundation of a property and damage it.
