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 Vails Gate 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 any tree that has recently lost a pretty big limb evaluated by a tree professional that can do a risk assessment on the tree to verify more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service free of cost. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals carry out free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a real “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade which trees provide lowers cooling costs in the summertime and provides a barrier against the winter wind. Meanwhile the drop in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenditures to increase (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees beside houses can also allow unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching on his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had penetrated his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a bunch of money having someone trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then needed to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In situations where limbs are effectively touching the house the continuous swaying of the trees can cause damaged shingles or siding.

Sometimes when a tree is very near to a home we will be able to just trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if several limbs need to be taken off it may cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be more suitable to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or basically select a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots will clog up your septic system| or they might crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or foundation. Since there is no other to stop this other than tree removal it is always prudent to carry out some research or refer to a landscape professional when choosing on a location for trees around a property 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 house before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to have to hire a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their overall size trees can overshadow small plants. Property owners ought to select bushes or shrubs which have the ability to tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they will have to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that isn’t performing well under a tree can be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only prosper in full sun light. While it may be cheaper to remove the tree| if you cherish the tree you may seek advice from a landscape professional about switching to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the right location may boost a homes market value the wrong tree can damage property’s value. Often we can greatly improve the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is just simply removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your property from the road. Having said that in certain cases to boost the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically two things can not occupy the very same area. Such is the case of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Usually in these situations tree removal is the only option and if you are feeling down about clearing away your beloved tree you can always plant another one. Even though it doesn’t mature in our lifetime our children or somebody else’s kids may take joy in it.

Liability issues: We are not legal representatives but this is how falling trees are commonly interpreted according to the law. In the event that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be negligent or to blame for the tree falling. You clear away the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is obligated with respect to tree removal and repair works to his premises. You are only liable for your 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 provision saying that these companies are exempt for lifeless or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you can 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 other hand if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the 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 evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notification to position the cost of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many individuals that like to clean gutters. We literally could start a gutter maintenance operation with the amount of calls we receive seeking out a good cheap gutter cleaning service. Every one wants to have a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-priced ones I know typically aren’t insured and for this reason I refuse to refer them. However clogged gutters are much worse than not possessing gutters at all. Clogged downspouts trigger the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water caught 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. Otherwise 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 because of a certain tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their house. The fact is the only way to make certain a tree does not fall on the home is to take down all large trees inside of striking distance. It could be expensive to remove a bunch of trees near your Vails Gate NY property and often this gets rid of the fear but leaves some regret. Often fears could be appeased by having a tree service company examine the trees to make certain none of them have any defects that would make them a more than normal threat. If a tree requires to be cleared away you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Simply plant a new native tree at a much better location on your estate and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you don’t have room on your property but still want to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for each dollar donated and you can even choose the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a couple cultivated in a non harvest area within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
