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 take any tree that has recently lost a large limb checked by a tree professional that can possibly do a risk assessment on the tree to ascertain more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service for free. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals perform free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade which trees render lowers cooling bills in the summer time and provides a barrier from the winter wind. However the drop in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance bills to increase (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees near to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a bunch of money having someone trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and afterwards had to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In situations where limbs are actually in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can lead to damaged roof shingles or siding.

In some cases when a tree is very close to a property we will be able to just trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if lots of limbs need to be taken off it may cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be better to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or simply pick and choose a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots may clog up your septic system| or they could crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or property. Since there is no alternative way to prevent this other than tree removal it is always best to do some research or refer to a landscape company when choosing on a location for trees around a home or driveway. Often people fail to comprehend the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they might plan to sell the property before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to require to pay a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: A result of their proportions trees can overshadow small plants. Home-owners ought to pick bushes or shrubs which have the ability to tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they will have to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that is not performing well beneath a tree can be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only do well in full sunshine. Whilst it may be more affordable to remove the tree| if you love the tree you might consult a landscape company about changing to a different sort of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the correct location can improve a homes worth the inappropriate tree can damage a home’s value. Often we can greatly improve the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is just simply getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. However at times to boost the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes two things can not really inhabit the very same location. This is the instance of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Generally in these cases tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are really feeling depressed about clearing away your favorite tree you can always plant another one. Even if it doesn’t mature in our lifetime our children or somebody else’s kids may appreciate it.

Liability issues: Our people are certainly not lawyer or attorneys however here is the way in which falling trees are commonly translated according to the law. If the tree was not obviously dead or diseased you are not deemed to be negligent or liable for the tree dropping down. You dispose of the part of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is liable when it comes to tree removal and repairs to his property. You are only responsible for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or diseased the next-door neighbor could file suit and a few insurance policies have a provision saying that these companies are not responsible for perished or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you might be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a clause concerning dead or diseased trees. On the flip side if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to protect yourself is to notify them in writing and let them know 99 % of competent tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your residence you can use the written notification to place the fee of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know of many property owners who like to clean out gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning business with the quantity of phone calls we receive searching for a good affordable gutter cleaner. Every one wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the inexpensive ones I know typically aren’t insured and that is why I refuse to recommend them. Having said that clogged gutters are much worse than not possessing gutters at all. Obstructed downspouts cause the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water trapped behind the gutters causes them to rot. So that requires you to install a gutter cap like http://www.leafguard.com or http://www.gutterguardian.com. Or else clean them yearly right after all the leaves have fallen and if 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 particular tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their residence. The fact is the sole way to make sure a tree doesn’t fall on the house is to take out all large trees inside of close quarters. It can be downright costly to remove a number of trees near your Chester NY house and often this eliminates the fear but leaves some regret. Often fears could be soothed by having a tree service company evaluate the trees to ensure none of them have any flaws that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree requires to be cleared away you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree executioner. Just plant a brand-new native tree at a better location on your estate and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you don’t have room on your property but still want to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for every dollar donated and you can even choose the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a couple sown in a non harvest site within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
