So why would you want to remove a tree anyway?  As a tree service| tree removal is a lot of what we do.  We love our job but we always want to remove trees for the right reasons. Below is a list of the most common reasons for tree removal in Chester NY.

Dead| Dying| Diseased Trees:  One of the most popular reasons for tree removal is that the tree is dead| dying| and diseased.  This is also the most justifiable reason to for tree removal.  The tree is dead or near death and needs to be removed before it becomes a hazard to people and structures around it. (See Liability Issues below)

Storm Damaged or Injured Trees: Usually storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is still a good practice to have every tree that has likely lost a sizable limb assessed by a tree professional that can do a risk evaluation on the tree to check more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service totally free. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals perform free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade that trees provide lowers cooling costs in the summer season and provides a buffer against the winter wind. On the other hand the decrease in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance expenditures to grow (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees close to houses can also enable unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to penetrate the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching on his house due to the fact that a family of squirrels which had penetrated his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a bunch of money having someone else trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and afterwards needed to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In situations where limbs are actually in contact with the house the continuous swaying of the trees can cause damaged roof shingles or home siding.

Sometimes when a tree is very near to a house we will be able to simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if several limbs need to be removed it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more suitable to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or just opt for a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots may clog up your septic system| or they can crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or home. Since there is no alternative way to stop this other than tree removal it is always advised to do some research or consult with a landscape professional when choosing on a location for trees around a house or driveway. Often people fail to understand the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they might plan to sell the building before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to require to hire a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their scale trees can overshadow much smaller plants. House owners should pick bushes or shrubs which will tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they have to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that isn’t performing well underneath a tree can be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only do well in full sunlight. While it may be less expensive to remove the tree| if you cherish the tree you might just consult a landscape expert about changing to a different type of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the most appropriate location may increase a property’s value the inappropriate tree can hurt property’s value. In many cases we can boost the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is merely clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. Unfortunately in some cases to enhance the curb appeal we will have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically 2 things can not occupy the very same area. Such is the instance of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Normally in these scenarios tree removal is the only option and if you are really feeling down about removing your beloved tree you can always plant another one. Even though it does not mature in our lifespan our kids or somebody else’s kids can appreciate it.

Liability issues: are certainly not lawyer or attorneys but here is the way fallen trees are ordinarily translated according to the law. On the assumption that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be negligent or to blame for the tree dropping down. You clear away the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is responsible with respect to tree removal and repair works to his property. You are actually only responsible for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the next-door neighbor could sue and a few insurance policies have a stipulation pointing out that they are not responsible for deceased or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s property and your insurance will not pay if they have a stipulation concerning dead or diseased trees. On the flip side if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the best way to safeguard yourself is to advise them in writing and let them find out 99 % of competent tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notification to place the fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know many people who like to clean out gutters. We literally could start a gutter maintenance business with the quantity of telephone calls we receive searching for a good affordable gutter cleaning service. Everyone wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-priced ones I know aren’t insured and as a result I refuse to recommend them. However clogged gutters are much worse than not having gutters at all. Clogged up downspouts cause the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water caught behind the gutters causes them to rot. So that requires you to put in a gutter cap like http://www.leafguard.com or http://www.gutterguardian.com. Alternatively clean them yearly right after all the leaves have fallen and in the event that you get fed up with that we are a tree removal expert.

Peace of Mind: We oftentimes remove trees simply because some people lay awake on windy nights due to a certain tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their property. Unfortunately the sole way to make certain a tree will never fall on the house is to take down all big trees inside of striking distance. It can be pricey to remove a number of trees near your Chester NY home and often this alleviates the fear but leaves behind some regret. Commonly fears could be relieved by having a tree service company examine the trees to make sure none of these have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree needs to be taken down you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Just plant a fresh native tree at a far better location on your property and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you don’t have room on your property but still want to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for each dollar donated and you can even specify the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a few sown in a non harvest location within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
