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 Milford 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 take each and every tree that has lost a large limb checked out by a tree professional who may do a risk assessment on the tree to ascertain 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 necessitate tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals perform free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a residence is a real “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade which trees provide lowers cooling expenditures in the summer months and provides a barrier from the winter wind. Meanwhile the drop in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing maintenance expenditures to increase (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees next to houses can also allow unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to get into the attic. A homeowner of ours had us take down some trees touching his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a bunch of money having someone trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and afterwards had to re-insulate and rewire the attic. In cases where limbs are actually in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can cause damaged shingles or siding.

Occasionally if a tree is very close to a property we can just trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if many limbs need to be removed it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more effective to take out the tree and plant another 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 could crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or foundation. Since there is no alternative way to stop this other than tree removal it is always advised to carry out some research or consult a landscape professional when choosing on a location for trees around a property or driveway. Often people fail to comprehend 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 pay a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: A result of their overall size trees can overshadow small plants. Home-owners should certainly go for bushes or shrubs which have the ability to tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they will have to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that isn’t performing well beneath a tree can be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only prosper in full direct sunlight. Although it may be less costly to take out the tree| if you really love the tree you might just consult a landscape expert about switching to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the appropriate location can improve a homes worth the inappropriate tree can impact property’s value. Often we can improve the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is just simply getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Unfortunately at times to improve the curb appeal we will have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically two things can not occupy the same location. This is the case of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Generally in these scenarios tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are feeling down about clearing away your favorite tree you can always plant a different one. Albeit it may not mature in our life-time our children or somebody else’s kids may well take joy in it.

Liability issues: We are certainly not lawyers however this is the way in which fallen trees are usually translated according to the law. Assuming that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be negligent or liable for the tree dropping down. You remove the section of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is responsible for tree removal and repair works to his property. 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 stipulation saying that these companies are not responsible for lifeless or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s property and your insurance will not pay if they have a clause about dead or diseased trees. On the flip side if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to protect 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 house you can use the written notification to place the fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know of many individuals who like to clean gutters. We literally could start a gutter maintenance company with the amount of telephone calls we receive looking for a good affordable gutter cleaning service. Every one wants a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the low-priced kind I know aren’t insured and that is why I refuse to recommend them. Nevertheless clogged gutters are much 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 these 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 right 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 oftentimes remove trees simply because some people lay awake on windy night-times because of a certain tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the sole way to make sure a tree will never fall on the house is to clear away all big trees inside of close quarters. It could be expensive to remove a lot of trees near your New Milford NY house and often this alleviates the fear but leaves some regret. Typically fears could be soothed by having a tree service professional evaluate the trees to make certain none of them have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. If a tree needs to be removed you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Simply plant a brand new native tree at a far better location on your property and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you do not have space on your property but still wish to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for every single dollar donated and you can also choose the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a couple cultivated in a non harvest site within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
