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: Once in a while 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 good sized limb surveyed 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 totally free. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always require tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals offer 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 offer reduces cooling bills in the summer time and provides a buffer against the winter wind. However the drop in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance bills to grow (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees next to houses can also allow unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to penetrate the attic. A customer of ours had us take down some trees touching on his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having someone else trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then needed to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In scenarios where limbs are effectively touching the house the continuous swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or siding.

In some cases if a tree is too close to a house we can simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from your home but if lots of limbs need to be removed it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more effective to take out the tree and plant another 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 could crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or foundation. Since there is no other to stop this other than tree removal it is always advisable to do some research or consult a landscape company when deciding on a location for trees around a home or driveway. Often people fail to anticipate the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they just plan to sell the building before it reaches maturity leaving the subsequent owner to require to hire a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their scale trees can overshadow much smaller plants. Home owners should certainly choose bushes or shrubs that will tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they need to cope with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t performing well underneath a tree could be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only prosper in full sunshine. While it may be cheaper to remove the tree| if you love the tree you might just seek advice from a landscape expert about switching to a different type of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the appropriate location can boost a homes value the inappropriate tree can hurt property’s value. In many cases we can boost the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is merely clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of the house from the road. Having said that in some cases to boost the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times two things can not really inhabit the same site. Such is the scenario of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Normally in these situations tree removal is the only solution and if you are feeling down about extracting your best-loved tree you can always plant another one. Albeit it doesn’t mature in our lifetime our children or someone else’s children may appreciate it.

Liability issues: are certainly not lawyer or attorneys however this is the way in which fallen trees are generally translated according to the law. On the assumption that the tree was not clearly dead or diseased you are not considered to be negligent or at fault for the tree falling. You clear away the part of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is responsible with regard to tree removal and repairs to his property. You are actually only liable for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the next-door neighbor could sue and a few insurance policies have a stipulation stating that they are not responsible for lifeless or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you might be held accountable for damage 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 protect yourself is to advise 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 residence you can use the written notice to position the fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know many homeowners who like to clean out gutters. We literally could start a gutter maintenance company with the amount of phone calls we get seeking out a good affordable gutter cleaning service. Everybody would like a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-priced ones I know aren’t insured and for that reason I refuse to recommend them. However clogged gutters are worse than not having gutters at all. Blocked downspouts cause the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water trapped 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 if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal specialist.

Peace of Mind: We often times remove trees simply because some people lay awake on windy night-times as a result of a certain tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over the house. Unfortunately the only way to make certain a tree doesn’t fall on the house is to take down all large trees inside of striking distance. It can possibly be downright costly to remove a lot of trees near your Walden NY residential property and often this eliminates the fear but leaves some remorse. Often fears can be relieved by having a tree service company assess the trees to make sure none of them have any defects that would make them a higher than normal threat. If a tree requires to be cleared away you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Just simply plant a fresh native tree at a far better location on your property and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you do not have space 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 dollar donated and you can also specify the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a couple cultivated in a non harvest area within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
