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 Walden 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 a good idea to have any tree that has definitely lost a sizable limb examined by a tree professional that should 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 most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals perform free inspections.
Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a home is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade that trees offer reduces cooling expenditures in the summer season and provides a barrier against the winter wind. However the decrease in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenditures to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees next to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to get 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 gotten in his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having somebody trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then had to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In situations where limbs are effectively touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can lead to damaged roof shingles or siding.
Sometimes whenever a tree is too close to a property we may simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if several limbs need to be removed it may cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be far better to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or basically think about a more suitable location.
Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots may clog up your septic system| or they might crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or building. Since there is no other to stop this other than tree removal it is always advised to conduct some research or consult with a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a house 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 home before it reaches maturity leaving the subsequent owner to have to locate a professional tree service to remove the tree.
Impact on surrounding landscape: A result of their overall size trees can dominate smaller plants. Property owners should select bushes or shrubs that can tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they will have to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well beneath a tree can be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only prosper in full sunshine. While it may be more affordable to take out the tree| if you cherish the tree you might just speak with a landscape company about changing to a different kind of grass to save the tree.
Impact on home value: While the best tree in the most appropriate location can certainly improve a property’s market value the wrong tree can damage property’s value. Oftentimes we can improve the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is just simply removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of the house from the road. However sometimes to improve 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 location. This is the scenario of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Usually in these situations tree removal is the sole solution and if you are really feeling depressed about getting rid of your best-loved tree you can always plant a different one. Albeit it may not mature in our life-time our kids or someone else’s children may appreciate it.
Liability issues: We are not attorneys however this is the way falling trees are generally translated according to the law. In the event that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be neglectful or at fault for the tree dropping down. You clear away the part of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is liable with respect to tree removal and repairs to his property. You are actually only liable for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the neighbor could sue and a few insurance policies have a stipulation pointing out that they are not responsible for lifeless or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s 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 very best way to safeguard yourself is to notify them in writing and let them know 99 % of competent tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notice to place the cost of removal on your neighbor.
Maintenance: I really don’t know many homeowners who like to clean gutters. We actually could start a gutter cleaning operation with the number of calls we receive looking for a good inexpensive gutter cleaning service. Every one would like a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the low-cost kind I know typically aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to refer them. Having said that clogged gutters are more frustrating compared to not having gutters whatsoever. Obstructed downspouts trigger the water to overflow into 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 soon 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 frequently remove trees because some people lay awake on windy nights due to a specific tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over the house. The fact is the sole way to make sure a tree will never fall on the house is to clear away all large trees inside of striking distance. It may be expensive to remove a lot of trees near your Walden NY property and often this alleviates the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Often fears can be appeased by having a tree service expert evaluate the trees to ensure none of them have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree has to be taken down you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Just simply plant a brand new native tree at a more desirable location on your estate and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you do not 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 choose the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a couple planted in a non harvest location within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
