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 Johnson 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: Occasionally 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 lost a sizable limb checked out by a tree professional who can possibly do a risk evaluation on the tree to ensure that 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 require tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals make available free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade that trees render lowers cooling expenditures in the hot months and provides a buffer from the winter wind. On the other hand the reduction in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance bills to grow (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees close to houses can also help unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A homeowner of ours had us remove some trees touching on his house because a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a bunch of money having someone else trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then needed to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In situations where limbs are actually touching the house the continuous swaying of the trees can lead to damaged shingles or siding.

At times if a tree is very near to a property we will be able to just trim or cut back the tree limbs away from your home but if several limbs need to be removed it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be better to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or basically pick and choose a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots can sometimes 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 advisable to do some research or refer to a landscape company when deciding on a location for trees around a building or driveway. Often people fail to anticipate the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they may plan to sell the building before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to require to locate a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their overall size trees can overshadow much smaller plants. Home owners should certainly go with bushes or shrubs that can tolerate the competition for direct sunlight and water or they need to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that isn’t performing well beneath a tree could be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only flourish in full sun light. Even though it may be more affordable to remove the tree| if you really love the tree you could seek advice from a landscape company about switching to a different kind of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the appropriate location may increase a property’s market value the wrong tree can hurt property’s value. Oftentimes we can improve the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. However in certain cases to enhance the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times two things can not inhabit the same spot. Such is the case of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Often in these circumstances tree removal is the only solution and if you are feeling depressed about getting rid of your best-loved tree you can always plant another one. Even though it may not mature in our lifespan our kids or someone else’s kids may well take joy in it.

Liability issues: Our people are certainly not lawyer or attorneys however here is how fallen trees are commonly 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 remove the portion of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is liable with regard to tree removal and repairs to his premises. You are only liable for your residential property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or diseased the neighbor could sue and some insurance policies have a provision saying that these companies are exempt for perished or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you can be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s property and your insurance will not pay if they have a stipulation about dead or diseased trees. On the other hand if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the best way to protect yourself is to notify them in writing and let them know 99 % of competent tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notification to place the cost of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know of many individuals that like to clean gutters. We actually could start a gutter cleaning business with the number of phone calls we get searching for a good cheap gutter cleaner. Everybody would like a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-cost kind I know aren’t insured and for that reason I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are worse than not having gutters at all. Obstructed downspouts cause the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water trapped 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 shortly after all the leaves have fallen and in the event that you get fed up with that we are a tree removal specialist.

Peace of Mind: We often times remove trees because some people lay awake on windy nights because of a particular tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over the house. Unfortunately the only way to guarantee a tree doesn’t fall on the home is to remove all big trees inside of striking distance. It can be downright costly to remove a bunch of trees near your Johnson NY house and sometimes this eases the fear but leaves some regret. Typically fears could be relieved by having a tree service pro inspect the trees to make sure none of them have any defects that would make them a higher than normal threat. If a tree has to be removed you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree destroyer. Just simply plant a new native tree at a far better location on your property and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you don’t have space 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 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 planted in a non harvest place within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
