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 New Hampton 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 a good idea to take any tree that has recently lost a large limb evaluated by a tree professional who should 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 charge. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always require tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals provide 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 offer reduces cooling bills in the summer season and provides a barrier from the winter wind. However the drop in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenses to increase (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees close to houses can also enable unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A customer of ours had us remove some trees touching on his house thanks 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 someone trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then needed to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In situations where limbs are actually in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can lead to damaged shingles or home siding.

At times when 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 taken off it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be far better to take out the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or basically pick out 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 building. Since there is no other to stop this other than tree removal it is always advisable to conduct some research or refer to a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a property or driveway. Often people fail to understand the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they may plan to sell the property before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to have to find a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their scale trees can overshadow much smaller plants. Property owners should certainly go with bushes or shrubs that are able to tolerate the competition for direct sunlight and water or they will have to live with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that is not performing well underneath a tree can be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only flourish in full sunlight. Whilst it may be more affordable to take out the tree| if you love the tree you may seek advice from a landscape expert about switching to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the appropriate location may improve a property’s value the wrong tree can impact property’s value. Oftentimes we can boost the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is merely clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Unfortunately in some cases to enhance the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees often 2 things can not occupy the very same spot. This is the instance of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Oftentimes in these instances tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are feeling depressed about taking out your favorite tree you can always plant another one. Even if it does not mature in our life time our kids or somebody else’s kids can enjoy it.

Liability issues: We are certainly not lawyer or attorneys but this is the way in which falling trees are commonly interpreted according to the law. If the tree was not clearly dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be neglectful or liable for the tree dropping down. You remove the chunk 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 actually only liable for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the next-door neighbor could file suit and several insurance policies have a provision saying that they are not responsible for dead or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you can be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a stipulation concerning dead or diseased trees. On the flip side if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the best way to safeguard yourself is to notify them in writing and let them know 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 fee of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many individuals that like to clean gutters. We literally could start a gutter maintenance company with the amount of calls we receive seeking out a good inexpensive gutter cleaner. Everyone would like a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-cost kind I know aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are worse compared to not having gutters at all. Clogged up 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 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 in the event that you get fed up with that we are a tree removal specialist.

Peace of Mind: We often times remove trees simply because some people lay awake on stormy nights due to a certain tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their property. The fact is the sole way to make sure a tree will never fall on the house is to take down all large trees within striking distance. It can be downright costly to remove a lot of trees near your New Hampton NY residence and sometimes this eases the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Commonly fears can be appeased by having a tree service pro assess the trees to make sure none of these have any flaws that would make them a more than normal threat. If a tree has to be taken down you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Just plant a brand new native tree at a far 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 provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for each dollar donated and you can also specify the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a few cultivated in a non harvest location within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
