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 Cornwall 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 still a good idea to have each and every tree that has likely lost a large limb inspected by a tree professional that can possibly do a risk evaluation on the tree to ensure that more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service free of cost. Injured trees are more 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 property is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade which trees offer reduces cooling expenditures in the summer time and provides a buffer against the winter wind. On the other hand the reduction in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance bills to increase (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees beside houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to get into the attic. A homeowner of ours had us take down some trees touching on his house because a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having someone else trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and afterwards had to re-insulate and rewire the loft. In scenarios where limbs are actually touching the house the continuous swaying of the trees can cause damaged shingles or home siding.

Often whenever a tree is too near to a house we may just trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if lots of limbs need to be taken off it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more effective to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or simply make a decision 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 property. Since there is no way to stop this other than tree removal it is always prudent to carry out some research or refer to a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a house or driveway. Often people fail to comprehend the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they might plan to sell the house before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to have to hire a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: As a result of their scale trees can dominate small plants. Property owners should certainly go with bushes or shrubs that have the ability to tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they need to cope with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that is not performing well under a tree could be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only prosper in full sunlight. Whilst it may be more affordable to take out the tree| if you love the tree you may seek advice from a landscape expert about switching to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the appropriate location can boost a property’s market value the inappropriate tree can damage property’s value. Often we can greatly improve the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is just simply clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. However in certain cases 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 area. Such is the instance of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Generally in these cases tree removal is the sole solution and if you are really feeling down about removing your favorite tree you can always plant a different one. Even if it does not mature in our lifetime our children or somebody else’s kids may well enjoy it.

Liability issues: We are not attorneys but here is insights on how fallen trees are normally interpreted 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 falling. You remove the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is responsible for tree removal and repair works to his property. You are only liable for your residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the neighbor could sue and several insurance policies have a provision pointing out that they are exempt for lifeless 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 concerning dead or diseased trees. On the flip side if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the best way to protect yourself is to notify them in writing and let them know 99 % of professional tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notification to position the cost of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many individuals who like to clean gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning company with the number of telephone calls we get seeking out a good inexpensive gutter cleaner. Everyone wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the inexpensive kind I know typically aren’t insured and for this reason I refuse to recommend them. At the same time clogged gutters are worse compared to not possessing gutters whatsoever. Blocked downspouts trigger the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water caught behind the gutters causes them to rot. So that requires you to install a gutter cap like http://www.leafguard.com or http://www.gutterguardian.com. Otherwise 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 simply because some people lay awake on windy night-times because of a specific tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the only way to make sure a tree does not fall on the house is to clear away all big trees within close quarters. It can be downright costly to remove a bunch of trees near your Cornwall NY home and sometimes this gets rid of the fear but leaves some regret. Typically fears could be soothed by having a tree service pro inspect the trees to make sure none of them have any defects that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree requires to be removed you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Just plant a brand-new native tree at a much 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 would like to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for every single dollar donated and you can also specify the location by US State or country. Cut a tree in your yard and have a couple planted in a non harvest location within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
