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 Washingtonville 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: Once in a while storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is a good idea to have every tree that has lost a sizable limb examined by a tree professional who may do a risk evaluation on the tree to ascertain more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service free of cost. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals provide free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a total “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade that trees provide decreases cooling expenditures in the hot months and provides a barrier against the winter wind. However the decrease in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance costs to increase (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees beside houses can also make it possible for unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to penetrate the attic. A client of ours had us remove some trees touching his house owing to a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having somebody trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then afterwards had to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In situations where limbs are effectively touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can cause damaged roof shingles or siding.

Occasionally when a tree is too near to a property we may just trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home 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 more effective to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or simply choose on 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 other to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advisable to carry out some research or consult with a landscape professional when deciding 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 property before it reaches maturity leaving the subsequent owner to have to hire a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their overall size trees can dominate small plants. House owners ought to choose bushes or shrubs which are able to tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they need to cope with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that is not performing well beneath a tree can be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only prosper in full sunshine. Even though it may be cheaper to remove the tree| if you cherish the tree you might seek advice from a landscape professional about switching to a different kind of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the right location can improve a property’s market value the inappropriate tree can hurt a home’s value. In many cases we can improve the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your property from the road. Unfortunately in certain cases to improve the curb appeal we will have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes 2 things can not really occupy the same area. This is the instance of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Normally in these instances tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are really feeling depressed about taking out your favorite tree you can always plant another one. Albeit it may not mature in our lifespan our children or somebody else’s kids can appreciate it.

Liability issues: We are certainly not lawyers however here is the way in which falling trees are commonly interpreted based upon the law. Assuming that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be negligent or at fault for the tree dropping down. You remove the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is responsible with respect to tree removal and repair works to his property. You are only responsible for your residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or diseased the next-door neighbor could sue and several insurance policies have a clause stating that they are exempt for dead or diseased 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 clause about dead or diseased trees. On the flip 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 find out 99 % of competent tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notification to place the cost of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know many homeowners who like to clean gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning business with the number of telephone calls we receive trying to find a good low-cost gutter cleaning service. Everyone wants to have a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the low-priced kind I know typically aren’t insured and that is why I refuse to refer them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are worse than not having gutters whatsoever. Clogged downspouts cause the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water caught 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. Alternatively clean them yearly soon 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 because some people lay awake on blustery nights because of a specific tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over the house. The fact is the sole way to guarantee a tree does not fall on the house is to clear away all large trees within close quarters. It can be expensive to remove a bunch of trees near your Washingtonville NY residence and sometimes this alleviates the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Often fears could be appeased by having a tree service company assess the trees to make sure none of them have any defects that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree has to be removed you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree executioner. Just plant a fresh native tree at a more desirable location on your estate 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 grow a tree for every dollar donated and you can even specify the location by US State or country. Cut a tree in your yard and have a couple sown in a non harvest place within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
