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: Occasionally storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is a good idea to have every tree that has lost a good sized limb evaluated by a tree professional who may do a risk assessment on the tree to make sure more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide 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 carry out free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a total “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade that trees render decreases cooling expenditures in the summer time and provides a barrier from the winter wind. On the other hand the decrease in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance costs to grow (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees close to houses can also make it possible for unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to get into the attic. A homeowner of ours had us take down some trees touching his house due to the fact that a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a bunch of money having somebody trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then had to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In situations where limbs are actually touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or home siding.

Occasionally when a tree is very close to a property we will be able to just trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if lots of limbs need to be taken off it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be far better to take out the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or basically pick out 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 property. Since there is no alternative way to stop this other than tree removal it is always advised to carry out some research or refer to a landscape professional 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 may plan to sell the building before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to require to hire a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Thanks to their proportions trees can overshadow small plants. Homeowners ought to go with bushes or shrubs that can tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they need to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t performing well beneath a tree could be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only do well in full sun light. While it may be less expensive to take out the tree| if you cherish the tree you might just 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 easily increase a homes market value the wrong tree can damage property’s value. Often we can boost the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of the house from the road. However in some cases to boost the curb appeal we will have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees often 2 things can not inhabit the very same spot. This is the scenario of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Often in these cases tree removal is the only choice and if you are really feeling down about taking out your best-loved tree you can always plant a different one. Albeit it will not mature in our lifetime our children or somebody else’s kids may take joy in it.

Liability issues: We are certainly not lawyer or attorneys however here is how falling trees are typically interpreted according to the law. In the case that the tree was not clearly dead or diseased you are not considered to be negligent or liable for the tree dropping down. You clear away the section of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is liable with regard to tree removal and repairs to his property. You are actually only liable for your residential property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the next-door neighbor could sue and some insurance policies have a provision saying that these companies are exempt 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 clause about dead or diseased trees. On the other hand if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the best way to protect yourself is to notify them in writing and let them find out 99 % of competent tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your residence you can use the written notice to position the expense of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know of many homeowners that like to clean out gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning operation with the number of telephone calls we get trying to find a good affordable gutter cleaner. Everyone would like a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the low-cost ones I know typically aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to refer them. Having said that clogged gutters are more frustrating compared to not having gutters whatsoever. Obstructed downspouts cause 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. 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 frequently remove trees because some people lay awake on stormy night-times due to a particular tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their residence. Unfortunately the only way to make certain a tree does not fall on the home is to take out all big trees within striking distance. It can possibly be costly to remove a bunch of trees near your Chester NY residence and sometimes this gets rid of the fear but leaves behind some regret. Commonly fears can be appeased by having a tree service pro assess the trees to ensure none of them have any defects that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree needs 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 don’t have space on your property but still wish to make a contribution you can provide 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. Cut a tree in your yard and have a few seeded in a non harvest site within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
