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 Slate Hill 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 practice to take each and every tree that has recently lost a good sized limb checked by a tree professional that can possibly do a risk assessment on the tree to check more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service for free. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always require tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals perform free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a residence is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade which trees provide reduces cooling bills in the summer time and provides a buffer from the winter wind. However the reduction in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance bills to grow (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees next to houses can also allow unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A client of ours had us remove some trees touching on his house due to the fact that a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having someone trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then afterwards needed to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In situations where limbs are actually in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can lead to damaged roof shingles or home siding.

In some cases whenever a tree is too close to a home we may just trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if a lot of limbs need to be taken off it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be more effective to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or basically choose on a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots may clog up your septic system| or they could crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or foundation. Since there is no alternative way to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advised to carry out some research or refer to a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a house or driveway. Often people fail to envisage 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 subsequent owner to require to locate a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Thanks to their scale trees can dominate small plants. Property owners ought to go with bushes or shrubs that can tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they will have to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that isn’t performing well underneath a tree could be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only flourish in full sunlight. While it may be less costly to remove the tree| if you really like the tree you might speak with a landscape company about changing to a different type of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the right location can boost a homes worth the wrong tree can hurt property’s value. Often we can greatly improve the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is merely removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. Unfortunately in certain cases to enhance the curb appeal we will have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically 2 things can not inhabit the very same location. This is the instance of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Oftentimes in these situations tree removal is the sole option and if you are feeling depressed about extracting your best-loved tree you can always plant another one. Even if it will not mature in our lifespan our kids or someone else’s children may well take joy in it.

Liability issues: Our people are not legal representatives but here is the way fallen trees are ordinarily interpreted according to the law. On the assumption that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be negligent or to blame for the tree dropping down. You clear away the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is responsible when it comes to tree removal and repairs to his premises. You are only liable for your 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 clause saying that they are exempt for perished or diseased trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a stipulation about dead or diseased trees. On the other side if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the very 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 residence you can use the written notification to place the cost of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many individuals who like to clean gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning business with the quantity of calls we receive searching for a good inexpensive gutter cleaning service. Every one wants to have a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-cost kind I know typically aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are more frustrating than not having gutters at all. Blocked 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 put in a gutter cap like http://www.leafguard.com or http://www.gutterguardian.com. Otherwise 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 often times remove trees simply because some people lay awake on blustery night-times as a result of a particular tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their property. The fact is the only way to make certain a tree will never fall on the house is to clear away all large trees within striking distance. It could be downright costly to remove a lot of trees near your Slate Hill NY residence and sometimes this eases the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Typically fears can be calmed by having a tree service pro inspect the trees to ensure none of them have any defects that would make them a higher than normal threat. If a tree has to be cleared away you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Just plant a brand-new native tree at a better location on your property and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you don’t have room on your property but still wish to make a contribution you can make 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 area within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
