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 Chester 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 a good idea to have any specific tree that has likely lost a significant limb surveyed by a tree professional who can do a risk assessment on the tree to ensure that more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service free of charge. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals make available free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a residence is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade which trees offer lowers cooling expenditures in the summer season and provides a buffer from the winter wind. However the reduction in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance costs to grow (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees next to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to get into the attic. A homeowner of ours had us remove some trees touching on his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had penetrated his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a bunch of money having somebody trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then afterwards had to re-insulate and rewire the loft. In situations where limbs are effectively touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can cause damaged roof shingles or siding.

Sometimes when a tree is too close to a house we will be able to just trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if a lot of limbs need to be removed it might cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be far better to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or basically make a decision on 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 home. Since there is no way to prevent this other than tree removal it is always prudent to do some research or hire a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a house 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 building before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to require to locate a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: As a result of their overall size trees can overshadow smaller plants. Homeowners should choose bushes or shrubs which are able to tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they have to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well underneath a tree can be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only prosper in full direct sunlight. Even though it may be less expensive to remove the tree| if you love the tree you might seek advice from a landscape company about switching to a different sort of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the right tree in the right location can improve a homes resale value the inappropriate tree can impact a home’s value. In many cases we can enhance the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. Having said that at times to improve the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times 2 things can not really inhabit the 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 alternative and if you are feeling depressed about removing your favorite tree you can always plant another one. Albeit it doesn’t mature in our lifespan our kids or somebody else’s kids can appreciate it.

Liability issues: We are certainly not legal representatives but this is the way falling trees are often translated according to the law. On the assumption that the tree was not clearly dead or diseased you are not considered to be neglectful or liable for the tree dropping down. You dispose of the part of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is obligated for 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 file suit and a few insurance policies have a stipulation pointing out that these companies are exempt for dead or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you can be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s 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 neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to safeguard yourself is to notify them in writing and let them know 99 % of professional tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notice to position the expense of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know of many individuals that like to clean out gutters. We actually could start a gutter maintenance operation with the amount of calls we get seeking out a good affordable gutter cleaning service. Every one wants to have a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-cost ones I know typically aren’t insured and for that reason I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are worse compared to not possessing gutters whatsoever. Congested downspouts cause the water to overflow into 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 soon after all the leaves have fallen and in the event that 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 blustery nights as a result of a specific tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their house. The fact is the sole way to insure a tree will never fall on the house is to remove all big trees inside of close quarters. It could be costly to remove a load of trees near your Chester NY residential property and sometimes this eases the fear but leaves some regret. Often fears can be relieved by having a tree service expert assess the trees to make certain none of them have any defects that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree needs to be removed you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Simply plant a fresh native tree at a far better location on your property and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you do not have room on your property but still want 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 even choose the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a few cultivated in a non harvest location within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
