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: Once in a while storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is still a good practice to take any tree that has recently lost a large limb inspected by a tree professional that can do a risk assessment on the tree to check more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service for free. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals carry out free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a home is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade which trees provide reduces cooling costs in the summer season and provides a barrier from the winter wind. Meanwhile the decrease in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance expenses to increase (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees close to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to gain access to the attic. A homeowner of ours had us remove some trees touching his house because a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having someone else trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then had to re-insulate and rewire the loft. In situations where limbs are actually touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or siding.

Sometimes when a tree is too close to a house we may simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if many limbs need to be cleared away it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be more suitable to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or simply opt for 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 building. Since there is no other to stop this other than tree removal it is always advised to do some research or consult with 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 home before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to require to pay a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their size trees can dominate much smaller plants. Property owners ought to choose bushes or shrubs that will tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they have to live with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well under a tree could be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only do well in full sunshine. Even though it may be cheaper to remove the tree| if you really love the tree you may consult a landscape expert about switching to a different type of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the right tree in the proper location can certainly boost a homes market value the wrong tree can hurt property’s value. Often times we can greatly improve the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your property from the road. Having said that in some cases to enhance the curb appeal we will have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees often two things can not really occupy the very same area. This is the instance of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Oftentimes in these instances tree removal is the sole choice and if you are really feeling depressed about taking out your best-loved tree you can always plant another one. Even if it does not mature in our life time our kids or someone else’s kids can enjoy it.

Liability issues: Our people are certainly not legal representatives but this is how falling trees are normally translated according to the law. Assuming that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be neglectful or liable for the tree falling. You remove the section of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is liable with respect 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 neighbor could file suit and a few insurance policies have a clause pointing out that they are not responsible for perished or unhealthy 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 about dead or diseased trees. On the flip side if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the best way to safeguard yourself is to notify them in writing and let them know 99 % of professional tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notice to position the cost of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know of many property owners that like to clean out gutters. We really could start a gutter maintenance business with the quantity of telephone calls we receive searching for a good inexpensive gutter cleaning service. Every one would like a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the low-cost ones I know aren’t insured and as a result I refuse to refer them. However clogged gutters are much worse than not possessing gutters at all. Blocked downspouts cause the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water caught behind the gutters causes these 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 right 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 because some people lay awake on windy night-times as a result of a specific tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over the house. Unfortunately the sole way to make certain a tree will never fall on the house is to clear away all large trees within close quarters. It can possibly be downright costly to remove a bunch of trees near your Vails Gate NY residence and often this eases the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Commonly fears could be soothed by having a tree service professional evaluate the trees to make certain none of them have any flaws that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree needs to be cleared away you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Just 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 space on your property but still want to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They grow a tree for each dollar donated and you can even choose 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 choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
