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: Sometimes storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is still a good idea to have each and every tree that has recently lost a sizable limb inspected by a tree professional that can possibly do a risk assessment on the tree to ascertain more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service free of charge. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals make available free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a total “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade which trees render decreases cooling expenditures in the summer season and provides a buffer against the winter wind. However the reduction in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenses to grow (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees beside houses can also allow unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A customer of ours had us remove 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 bunch of money having someone else trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then needed to re-insulate and rewire the attic. In situations where limbs are effectively touching the house the continuous swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or home siding.

Occasionally if a tree is too near to a house we may just trim or cut back the tree limbs away from your home but if a lot of limbs need to be cleared away it might cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more suitable to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or just simply find 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 home. Since there is no way to stop this other than tree removal it is always advisable to conduct some research or consult with a landscape company when choosing on a location for trees around a home or driveway. Often people fail to envisage the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they just plan to sell the house before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to have to hire a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their proportions trees can overshadow smaller plants. House owners ought to pick bushes or shrubs which will tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they need to live with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that is not performing well beneath a tree could be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only flourish in full sunlight. While it may be less costly to take out the tree| if you love the tree you could speak with a landscape expert about switching to a different sort of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the right location may improve a homes market value the inappropriate tree can impact a home’s value. Oftentimes we can improve the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your property from the road. Having said that in some cases to improve the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes two things can not really inhabit the very same site. This is the case of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Often in these instances tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are feeling depressed about taking out your favorite tree you can always plant another one. Even if it doesn’t mature in our lifetime our kids or somebody else’s children can enjoy it.

Liability issues: are certainly not legal professionals however here is insights on how falling trees are generally interpreted based upon the law. In the case that the tree was not obviously dead or diseased you are not considered to be negligent or liable for the tree dropping down. You clear away the part of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is obligated with regard to tree removal and repair works to his premises. You are actually only responsible for your residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the next-door neighbor could sue and several insurance policies have a clause stating that they are not responsible for dead or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you might be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s property and your insurance will not pay if they have a clause about 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 notify them in writing and let them find out 99 % of professional tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notification to place the fee of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know of many homeowners who like to clean out gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning business with the amount of telephone calls we get searching for a good cheap gutter cleaner. Every one wants a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the cheap kind I know aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to refer them. Having said that clogged gutters are much worse than not possessing gutters whatsoever. Congested downspouts trigger the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water trapped behind the gutters causes them 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 after all the leaves have fallen and if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal specialist.

Peace of Mind: We often remove trees simply because some people lay awake on blustery night-times as a result of a specific tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their residence. The fact is the sole way to make sure a tree will never fall on the home is to remove all large trees inside of close quarters. It may be downright costly to remove a number of trees near your Cornwall NY property and often this eliminates the fear but leaves some regret. Often fears can be relieved by having a tree service company inspect the trees to make certain none of these have any defects that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree requires to be cleared away you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree destroyer. Simply plant a brand new native tree at a more desirable location on your property and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you do not have room on your property but still want to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for every single dollar donated and you can also choose the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a few cultivated in a non harvest site within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
