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 Fort Montgomery 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: Sometimes storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is a good idea to take any tree that has recently lost a good sized limb checked by a tree professional that should do a risk assessment on the tree to make sure more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service free of cost. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals offer free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a residence is a total “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade that trees offer decreases cooling expenditures in the summer season and provides a barrier against the winter wind. On the other hand the decrease in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenditures to increase (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees close to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter the attic. A homeowner of ours had us remove some trees touching his house because a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a lot of money having someone else trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then needed to re-insulate and rewire the attic. In cases where limbs are actually touching the house the continuous swaying of the trees can result in damaged roof shingles or home siding.

Sometimes when a tree is too near to a property we may just trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if several limbs need to be cleared away it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be far better to take out the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or simply settle on 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 property. Since there is no way to stop this other than tree removal it is always advisable to carry out some research or hire a landscape company when deciding on a location for trees around a property or driveway. Often people fail to anticipate the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they just plan to sell the property before it reaches maturity leaving the subsequent owner to require to pay a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their overall size trees can dominate smaller plants. House owners should choose bushes or shrubs which are able to tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they need to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that isn’t performing well beneath a tree could be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only prosper in full direct sunlight. While it may be less costly to take out the tree| if you love the tree you might speak with a landscape professional about changing to a different sort of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the appropriate location can easily boost a homes value the wrong tree can damage a home’s value. Often times we can boost the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. However in certain cases to improve the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees often 2 things can not inhabit the same spot. Such is the instance of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Oftentimes in these scenarios tree removal is the only solution and if you are feeling down about taking out your treasured tree you can always plant another one. Albeit it doesn’t mature in our life-time our children or somebody else’s kids may well appreciate it.

Liability issues: Our people are certainly not attorneys however this is insights on how falling trees are ordinarily interpreted based upon the law. In the event that the tree was not clearly dead or diseased you are not considered to be neglectful or to blame for the tree dropping down. You remove the section of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is obligated with respect to tree removal and repairs to his premises. You are only responsible for your residential property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the neighbor could file suit and some insurance policies have a provision stating that they are not responsible for dead or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you can be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a stipulation about dead or diseased trees. On the other 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 know 99 % of professional tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notification to position the cost of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know many property owners that like to clean out gutters. We literally could start a gutter cleaning company with the quantity of phone calls we get trying to find a good cheap gutter cleaning service. Everyone wants to have a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the cheap kind I know typically aren’t insured and as a result I refuse to recommend them. Having said that clogged gutters are worse compared to not possessing gutters at all. Blocked 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. Or else clean them yearly shortly after all the leaves have fallen and if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal specialist.

Peace of Mind: We oftentimes remove trees simply because some people lay awake on blustery night-times because of a particular tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their residence. The fact is the only way to make sure a tree will never fall on the home is to take out all large trees within striking distance. It could be expensive to remove a number of trees near your Fort Montgomery NY home and often this alleviates the fear but leaves behind some regret. Commonly fears could be relieved by having a tree service expert evaluate the trees to ensure none of them have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. If a tree has to be taken down you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Simply plant a brand new native tree at a better location on your estate and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you don’t have room on your property but still wish 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 choose the location by US State or country. Cut a tree in your yard and have a few seeded in a non harvest place within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
