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 On Hudson 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 specific tree that has likely lost a substantial limb assessed by a tree professional that can do a risk evaluation on the tree to verify more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service totally free. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate 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 total “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade which trees provide reduces cooling costs in the summer months and provides a buffer from the winter wind. Meanwhile the reduction in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance bills to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees alongside houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter the attic. A client of ours had us remove some trees touching on 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 trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and afterwards needed to re-insulate and rewire the loft. In scenarios where limbs are effectively touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can result in damaged roof shingles or home siding.

In some cases if a tree is very close to a home we will be able to simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if lots of limbs need to be cleared away it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be far better to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or just pick out a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots can sometimes clog up your septic system| or they could crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or property. Since there is no alternative way to stop this other than tree removal it is always best to carry out some research or consult 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 just plan to sell the property before it reaches maturity leaving the subsequent owner to have to find a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Thanks to their overall size trees can overshadow small plants. Homeowners ought to go with bushes or shrubs that have the ability to tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they need to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well beneath a tree can be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only prosper in full sunlight. Although it may be less costly to take out the tree| if you cherish the tree you might 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 correct location can improve a homes resale value the wrong tree can hurt a home’s value. Often times we can boost the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Unfortunately in certain cases to boost the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes two things can not really occupy the same location. Such is the case of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Normally in these scenarios tree removal is the sole choice and if you are feeling down about getting rid of your treasured tree you can always plant a different one. Even if it doesn’t mature in our life time our children or someone else’s kids may well appreciate it.

Liability issues: Our people are not legal professionals but this is insights on how fallen trees are typically interpreted according to the law. Assuming that the tree was not clearly dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be negligent or liable for the tree falling. You dispose of the portion of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is liable with regard to tree removal and repair works to his premises. You are actually only responsible for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the neighbor could sue and some insurance policies have a clause saying that these companies are not responsible for deceased or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a stipulation about dead or diseased trees. On the flip side if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to safeguard yourself is to notify 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 house you can use the written notice to place the fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know many homeowners that like to clean gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning operation with the quantity of calls we receive searching for a good cheap gutter cleaner. Every one would like a cheap gutter cleaner but all the cheap kind I know aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to recommend them. However clogged gutters are more frustrating than not having gutters at all. Congested downspouts cause the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water trapped 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. Otherwise 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 specialist.

Peace of Mind: We oftentimes remove trees simply because some people lay awake on blustery night-times due to a specific tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their property. The fact is the sole way to make sure a tree doesn’t fall on the home is to take out all large trees within close quarters. It can possibly be costly to remove a number of trees near your Cornwall On Hudson NY house and sometimes this gets rid of the fear but leaves some regret. Often fears can be relieved by having a tree service pro inspect the trees to ensure none of these have any defects that would make them a more than normal threat. If a tree needs to be removed you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Just simply plant a fresh native tree at a more desirable 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 would like to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for every dollar donated and you can even specify the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a couple sown in a non harvest location within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
