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 Tuxedo Park 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 every tree that has lost a good sized limb assessed by a tree professional that should do a risk assessment on the tree to ensure that more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service totally free. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals perform free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a real “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade that trees render decreases cooling expenditures in the summer time and provides a barrier from the winter wind. However the reduction in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing maintenance expenses to grow (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees alongside houses can also enable unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to get into the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching on his house owing to a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a bunch of money having somebody trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then needed to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In situations where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or home siding.

Occasionally when a tree is very close to a house we may just trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if a lot of limbs need to be removed it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be far better to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or simply pick 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 foundation. Since there is no way to stop this other than tree removal it is always advisable to conduct some research or hire a landscape company 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 home before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to have to find a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their scale trees can dominate much smaller plants. Homeowners should select bushes or shrubs that are able to tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they will have to cope with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that isn’t performing well under a tree can be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only prosper in full direct sunlight. Although it may be cheaper to remove the tree| if you really love the tree you may speak with a landscape expert about changing to a different kind of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the right tree in the proper location can certainly increase a property’s market value the wrong tree can damage a home’s value. In many cases we can enhance the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is merely removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Having said that in certain cases to improve the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times 2 things can not really inhabit the very same site. Such is the instance of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Generally in these instances tree removal is the sole option and if you are really feeling down about clearing away your best-loved tree you can always plant another one. Even if it will not mature in our life time our kids or somebody else’s kids can enjoy it.

Liability issues: We are certainly not lawyers but this is the way fallen trees are normally interpreted according to the law. If the tree was not clearly dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be neglectful or to blame for the tree dropping down. You remove the section of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is obligated with respect to tree removal and repairs to his premises. You are only responsible for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is perished or unhealthy the next-door neighbor could sue and some insurance policies have a stipulation pointing out that they are exempt for dead or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you can be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a stipulation concerning dead or diseased trees. On the other hand if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the very 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 house you can use the written notice to place the cost of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know many people that like to clean gutters. We literally could start a gutter maintenance business with the number of phone calls we receive searching for a good affordable gutter cleaning service. Almost everyone wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the inexpensive kind I know typically aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to refer them. Having said that clogged gutters are much worse than not possessing gutters whatsoever. Obstructed downspouts trigger the water to overflow onto 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. Alternatively 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 frequently remove trees simply because some people lay awake on windy nights because of a particular tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the sole way to make sure a tree doesn’t fall on the home is to clear away all big trees inside of close quarters. It can possibly be costly to remove a lot of trees near your Tuxedo Park NY home and sometimes this gets rid of the fear but leaves some remorse. Often fears can be calmed by having a tree service expert evaluate 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 taken down you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Just simply plant a brand new native tree at a much better location on your property 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 make 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 cultivated in a non harvest location within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
