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 Unionville 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: Sometimes storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is still a good practice to have any tree that has likely lost a sizable limb inspected by a tree professional that should 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 most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals carry out free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade which trees offer reduces cooling costs in the summer season and provides a barrier against the winter wind. On the other hand the decrease in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance bills to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees next to houses can also allow 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 due to the fact that a family of squirrels which had penetrated his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having someone else trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then needed to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In situations where limbs are effectively touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or home siding.

Occasionally if a tree is too close to a house we will be able to just trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if a lot of limbs need to be taken off it may cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be better to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or simply settle on a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots may clog up your septic system| or they might crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or home. Since there is no way to stop this other than tree removal it is always best to do some research or refer to a landscape company when choosing on a location for trees around a home or driveway. Often people fail to anticipate 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 subsequent owner to require to pay a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their proportions trees can overshadow smaller plants. House owners should select bushes or shrubs that will tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they will have to cope with a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that isn’t performing well underneath a tree can be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only do well in full sunshine. Although it may be more affordable to remove the tree| if you really love the tree you may consult a landscape company about changing to a different type of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the right tree in the appropriate location can certainly increase a property’s resale value the wrong tree can hurt property’s value. Often we can boost the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. Unfortunately in some cases to improve the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times two things can not inhabit the very same area. Such is the case of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Oftentimes in these cases tree removal is the sole solution and if you are feeling down about taking out your beloved tree you can always plant another one. Even though it does not mature in our lifespan our children or someone else’s kids may well enjoy it.

Liability issues: We are certainly not attorneys however here is how falling trees are typically translated based upon the law. In the case that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be neglectful or liable for the tree falling. You remove the section of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is liable for tree removal and repairs to his property. You are actually only liable for your residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the neighbor could sue and several insurance policies have a provision pointing out that they are exempt for dead or unhealthy 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 clause concerning dead or diseased trees. On the other side if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the best way to protect yourself is to advise them in writing and let them know 99 % of competent tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notice to position the fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many homeowners who like to clean gutters. We literally could start a gutter cleaning business with the number of calls we receive trying to find a good low-cost gutter cleaning service. Everybody would like a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the cheap kind I know aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to recommend them. Having said that clogged gutters are worse than not possessing gutters whatsoever. Obstructed downspouts cause the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water caught behind the gutters causes these 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 right after all the leaves have fallen and in the event that you get fed up with that we are a tree removal expert.

Peace of Mind: We oftentimes remove trees simply because some people lay awake on blustery night-times because of a particular tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the sole way to make certain a tree does not fall on the home is to clear away all large trees within striking distance. It could be pricey to remove a load of trees near your Unionville NY house and often this gets rid of the fear but leaves some remorse. Often fears can be calmed by having a tree service company evaluate the trees to make sure none of these have any flaws that would make them a more than normal threat. If a tree needs to be cleared away you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Just simply plant a new native tree at a much 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 would like 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 choose the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a couple sown in a non harvest area within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
