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 Arden 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 practice to have every tree that has likely lost a large limb examined by a tree professional who may do a risk evaluation on the tree to verify more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide 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 property is a real “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade that trees offer lowers cooling bills in the summer months and provides a buffer from the winter wind. However the decrease in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance costs to increase (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees close to houses can also make it possible for unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to get into the attic. A customer of ours had us take down some trees touching his house owing to a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a lot of money having somebody trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then afterwards needed to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In cases where limbs are effectively touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or home siding.

Occasionally when a tree is too near to a property we will be able to simply trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if lots of limbs need to be taken off it may cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be better to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or just simply decide on a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots may clog up your septic system| or they can crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or foundation. Since there is no other to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advisable to carry out some research or refer to a landscape company when deciding on a location for trees around a building or driveway. Often people fail to envisage the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they may plan to sell the home before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to have to pay a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Thanks to their overall size trees can dominate much smaller plants. Homeowners ought to go for bushes or shrubs that will tolerate the competition for direct sunlight and water or they will have to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that is not performing well beneath a tree can be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only prosper in full direct sunlight. While it may be cheaper to take out the tree| if you love the tree you could speak with a landscape professional about changing to a different sort of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the most appropriate location can certainly improve a property’s resale value the wrong tree can hurt property’s value. Often times we can greatly improve the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. Having said that sometimes to improve the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically two things can not really inhabit the very same site. This is the instance of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Oftentimes in these scenarios tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are really feeling down about removing your beloved tree you can always plant another one. Even if it may not mature in our life-time our children or someone else’s kids can take joy in it.

Liability issues: are certainly not legal representatives but here is the way in which falling trees are generally interpreted based upon the law. If the tree was not obviously dead or diseased you are not deemed to be neglectful or to blame for the tree dropping down. You dispose of 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 responsible for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or unhealthy the neighbor could file suit and a few insurance policies have a clause pointing out that they are exempt 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 concerning dead or diseased trees. On the other hand 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 competent tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notification to place the fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know of many homeowners who like to clean gutters. We literally could start a gutter maintenance operation with the amount of telephone calls we get looking for a good cheap gutter cleaning service. Everybody wants a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the cheap ones I know aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are more frustrating compared to not possessing gutters whatsoever. Blocked downspouts trigger the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water trapped behind the gutters causes these to rot. So that requires you to install a gutter cap like http://www.leafguard.com or http://www.gutterguardian.com. Or else clean them yearly shortly after all the leaves have fallen and if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal expert.

Peace of Mind: We often times remove trees because some people lay awake on stormy nights due to a certain tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their residence. Unfortunately the sole way to make certain a tree will never fall on the home is to take down all big trees within striking distance. It could be costly to remove a bunch of trees near your Arden NY residential property and often this alleviates the fear but leaves some remorse. Commonly fears could be soothed by having a tree service company examine the trees to make certain none of these have any defects that would make them a more 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 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 don’t have space on your property but still would like to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for each dollar donated and you can also specify the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a couple cultivated in a non harvest location within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
