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 Howells 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 idea to take any tree that has lost a good sized limb checked by a tree professional that can possibly do a risk assessment on the tree to verify more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service free of cost. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals offer free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a home is a total “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade which trees render decreases cooling expenditures in the summer and provides a barrier from the winter wind. On the other hand the reduction in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing maintenance expenditures to increase (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees next to houses can also make it possible for unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to get into the attic. A customer 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 shelled out a lot of money having someone trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then needed to re-insulate and rewire the loft. In cases where limbs are effectively touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can lead to damaged shingles or home siding.

At times whenever a tree is too near to a house we will be able to just trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if several limbs need to be taken off it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more suitable to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or simply consider a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots will clog up your septic system| or they can crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or property. Since there is no other to prevent this other than tree removal it is always best to conduct some research or hire a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a house or driveway. Often people fail to anticipate the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they might plan to sell the home before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to have to locate a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their scale trees can dominate smaller plants. Home-owners should go for bushes or shrubs which will tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they need to live with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that is not performing well under a tree can be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only flourish in full sunshine. While it may be cheaper to take out the tree| if you love the tree you may seek advice from a landscape company about switching to a different type of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the proper location can easily improve a homes market value the inappropriate tree can impact property’s value. Often times we can improve the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. Unfortunately at times to enhance the curb appeal we will have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees often two things can not occupy the very same location. Such is the scenario of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Often in these situations tree removal is the only solution and if you are really feeling depressed about taking out your favorite tree you can always plant another one. Even though it does not mature in our lifetime our kids or somebody else’s children can take joy in it.

Liability issues: are not legal representatives however here is how falling trees are basically translated based upon the law. If the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be negligent or liable for the tree falling. You clear away the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is obligated with regard to tree removal and repair works to his property. You are only liable for your residential property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or diseased the next-door neighbor could file suit and several insurance policies have a stipulation pointing out that these companies are exempt for deceased or diseased trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a stipulation concerning dead or diseased trees. On the other side if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to safeguard yourself is to notify them in writing and let them find out 99 % of professional tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notice to position the expense of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know of many homeowners that like to clean out gutters. We actually could start a gutter cleaning company with the amount of calls we get seeking out a good inexpensive gutter cleaner. Everybody would like a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the cheap kind I know aren’t insured and as a result I refuse to recommend them. Having said that clogged gutters are worse than not having gutters at all. Obstructed downspouts cause the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water caught behind the gutters causes these to rot. So that requires you to install a gutter cap like http://www.leafguard.com or http://www.gutterguardian.com. Alternatively clean them yearly soon after all the leaves have fallen and if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal expert.

Peace of Mind: We frequently remove trees because some people lay awake on windy night-times as a result of a particular tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over the house. Unfortunately the only way to make sure a tree does not fall on the home is to take out all large trees inside of close quarters. It can be costly to remove a bunch of trees near your Howells NY residential property and often this alleviates the fear but leaves some regret. Commonly fears can be relieved by having a tree service expert inspect the trees to make sure none of them have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree has to be cleared away you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree destroyer. Simply plant a brand new native tree at a far better location on your property and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you do not have space on your property but still wish to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They grow a tree for each dollar donated and you can even specify the location by US State or country. Cut a tree in your yard and have a few cultivated in a non harvest site within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
