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 Otisville 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 idea to have any specific tree that has lost a significant limb checked out by a tree professional who can do a risk evaluation on the tree to ensure that more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service free of charge. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals carry out free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a real “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade that trees render lowers cooling costs in the summer season and provides a barrier from the winter wind. Meanwhile the reduction in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenditures to increase (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees next to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching on his house due to the fact that a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having someone else trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and afterwards had to re-insulate and rewire the loft. In cases where limbs are actually touching the house the continuous swaying of the trees can lead to damaged roof shingles or siding.

Occasionally whenever a tree is very near to a house we may simply trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if lots of limbs need to be removed it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more effective to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or just make a decision on 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 building. Since there is no way to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advisable to do some research or consult with a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a building or driveway. Often people fail to understand the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they just plan to sell the property before it reaches maturity leaving the subsequent owner to require to find a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their proportions trees can overshadow much smaller plants. House owners ought to pick bushes or shrubs which will tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they have to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that is not performing well beneath a tree could be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only do well in full sunshine. Whilst it may be less expensive to remove the tree| if you enjoy the tree you could speak with a landscape company about changing to a different sort of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the proper location may improve a homes value the inappropriate tree can hurt a home’s value. In many cases we can enhance the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is just simply removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your property from the road. However in some cases to improve the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically two things can not inhabit the same area. This is the scenario of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Oftentimes in these instances tree removal is the only choice and if you are feeling down about taking out your favorite tree you can always plant a different one. Even though it may not mature in our lifetime our kids or somebody else’s children can enjoy it.

Liability issues: are not lawyer or attorneys however here is insights on how falling trees are commonly interpreted according to the law. In the case that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be neglectful or at fault for the tree falling. You remove the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is liable with respect to 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 perished or unhealthy the next-door neighbor could sue and some insurance policies have a provision pointing out that these companies are not responsible for dead or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you may be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s property and your insurance will not pay if they have a clause concerning dead or diseased trees. On the flip side if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the best way to protect yourself is to advise them in writing and let them find out 99 % of competent tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your residence you can use the written notice to position the cost of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know many property owners that like to clean gutters. We literally could start a gutter cleaning company with the quantity of calls we get looking for a good inexpensive gutter cleaner. Everybody wants a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the inexpensive ones I know typically aren’t insured and that is why I refuse to refer them. At the same time clogged gutters are worse compared to not having gutters at all. Obstructed downspouts cause the water to overflow onto 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. Otherwise clean them yearly 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 stormy nights as a result of a certain tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their property. Unfortunately the sole way to make sure a tree does not fall on the home is to clear away all big trees inside of striking distance. It can possibly be pricey to remove a number of trees near your Otisville NY residential property and often this alleviates the fear but leaves behind some regret. Commonly fears can be appeased by having a tree service pro assess the trees to make sure none of them have any defects that would make them a higher than normal threat. If a tree requires to be cleared away you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Simply plant a fresh native tree at a much better location on your property and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you don’t have space on your property but still would like 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. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a few planted in a non harvest place within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
