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 Cornwall 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 still a good idea to have any tree that has recently lost a significant limb evaluated 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 provide 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 offer free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a residence is a real “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade that trees offer lowers cooling bills in the summer and provides a barrier from the winter wind. However the drop in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance bills to grow (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees alongside houses can also allow unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to penetrate the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching his house because a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a lot of money having someone else trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then afterwards had to re-insulate and rewire the loft. In scenarios where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can cause damaged shingles or home siding.

At times when a tree is very close to a property we can simply trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if several limbs need to be taken off it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more suitable to take out 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 can sometimes clog up your septic system| or they might crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or building. Since there is no alternative way to stop this other than tree removal it is always prudent to do some research or refer to a landscape company when deciding on a location for trees around a property or driveway. Often people fail to understand the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they might plan to sell the house before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to require to find a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: A result of their overall size trees can overshadow small plants. House owners ought to decide on bushes or shrubs that can tolerate the competition for direct sunlight and water or they will have to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t performing well under a tree can be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only do well in full sunlight. Even though it may be cheaper to remove the tree| if you really love the tree you could consult a landscape professional about changing to a different sort of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the proper location can certainly increase a property’s resale value the wrong tree can damage a home’s value. Often times we can boost the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is merely removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of the house 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 often 2 things can not occupy the very same spot. This is the case of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Generally in these circumstances tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are really feeling down about taking out your treasured tree you can always plant another one. Even though it does not mature in our life-time our kids or somebody else’s kids can enjoy it.

Liability issues: We are certainly not attorneys however this is the way falling trees are ordinarily translated based upon the law. On the assumption that the tree was not clearly dead or diseased you are not considered to be negligent or liable for the tree dropping down. You dispose of the portion 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 residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or unhealthy the neighbor could file suit and a few insurance policies have a stipulation saying that these companies are not responsible for dead or diseased trees. If this were to happen you may be held accountable for damages 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 find out 99 % of professional 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 really don’t know of many individuals who like to clean out gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning business with the quantity of phone calls we receive trying to find a good cheap gutter cleaner. Everyone would like a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-cost kind I know aren’t insured and as a result I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are much worse compared to not having gutters whatsoever. Clogged downspouts trigger 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. Or else clean them yearly shortly 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 often remove trees simply because some people lay awake on blustery night-times due to a specific tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over the house. Unfortunately the sole way to make certain a tree doesn’t fall on the house is to take down all big trees inside of close quarters. It can be costly to remove a load of trees near your Cornwall NY property and sometimes this eliminates the fear but leaves some regret. Commonly fears can be appeased by having a tree service company examine the trees to make certain none of them have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. If a tree has to be removed you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. 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 sow a tree for every single dollar donated and you can even specify the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a couple planted in a non harvest site within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
