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 Mountainville 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: Once in a while storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is a good practice to take any specific tree that has recently lost a substantial limb surveyed by a tree professional that can do a risk assessment on the tree to ascertain more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide 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 carry out free inspections.
Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a real “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade that trees render lowers cooling costs in the summer months and provides a buffer against the winter wind. On the other hand the decrease in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance costs to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees beside houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A client of ours had us remove some trees touching on his house owing to 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 somebody trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then needed to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In scenarios where limbs are actually in contact with the house the continuous swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or siding.
In some cases if a tree is very near to a home we may just 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 better to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or basically figure out a more suitable location.
Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots will clog up your septic system| or they could crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or home. Since there is no way to stop this other than tree removal it is always advisable to conduct some research or refer to a landscape company when choosing on a location for trees around a home 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 next owner to have to pay a professional tree service to remove the tree.
Impact on surrounding landscape: A result of their overall size trees can dominate smaller plants. Home owners should certainly select bushes or shrubs that will tolerate the competition for direct sunlight and water or they have to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well under a tree could be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only flourish in full sunlight. Even though it may be less costly to remove the tree| if you love the tree you could speak with a landscape expert about switching to a different kind of grass to save the tree.
Impact on home value: While the perfect tree in the proper location can certainly boost a property’s resale value the inappropriate tree can hurt property’s value. Oftentimes we can improve the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. Unfortunately sometimes to boost the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.
Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically two things can not really occupy the same location. This is the case of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Often in these cases tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are really feeling depressed about removing your favorite tree you can always plant another one. Even though it will not mature in our life-time our kids or somebody else’s kids may take joy in it.
Liability issues: We are not lawyers however here is how fallen trees are commonly translated based upon the law. In the event that the tree was not clearly dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be negligent or to blame for the tree dropping down. You dispose of the portion of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is liable for tree removal and repair works to his premises. You are only responsible for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the next-door neighbor could sue and several insurance policies have a stipulation saying that they are exempt for lifeless or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you might be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s property and your insurance will not pay if they have a clause about dead or diseased trees. On the other hand if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the 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 place the cost of removal on your neighbor.
Maintenance: I do not know of many people that like to clean out gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning company with the number of calls we receive looking for a good low-cost gutter cleaner. Every one wants to have a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-priced ones I know typically aren’t insured and that is why I refuse to recommend them. Having said that clogged gutters are worse than not possessing gutters at all. Congested 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 install a gutter cap like http://www.leafguard.com or http://www.gutterguardian.com. Or else clean them yearly soon after all the leaves have fallen and if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal specialist.
Peace of Mind: We often remove trees simply 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 insure a tree doesn’t fall on the home is to take down all big trees inside of close quarters. It may be costly to remove a great deal of trees near your Mountainville NY property and sometimes this alleviates the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Often fears could be calmed by having a tree service company examine the trees to make certain none of these have any flaws that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree has to be cleared away you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree destroyer. Simply plant a fresh native tree at a more desirable location on your estate and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you don’t have space on your property but still want to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for every single 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 seeded in a non harvest site within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
