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: Occasionally storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is still a good practice to have any tree that has lost a pretty big limb surveyed by a tree professional who can 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 most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals carry out free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a total “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade that trees render decreases cooling expenditures in the hot months and provides a barrier from the winter wind. On the other hand the reduction in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenses to increase (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees close to houses can also allow unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A homeowner of ours had us remove some trees touching on his house thanks 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| and then needed to re-insulate and rewire the attic. In cases where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can lead to damaged shingles or home siding.

In some cases when a tree is very close to a house we will be able to simply trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if many limbs need to be removed it may cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more suitable to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or just decide on a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots can sometimes clog up your septic system| or they could crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or foundation. Since there is no way to stop this other than tree removal it is always advisable to do some research or refer to a landscape company when deciding on a location for trees around a property 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 next owner to require to find a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: As a result of their size trees can overshadow small plants. Property owners ought to pick bushes or shrubs that are able to tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they need to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that is not performing well underneath a tree can be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only flourish in full sunlight. Whilst it may be less costly to remove the tree| if you love the tree you could seek advice from a landscape professional about switching to a different sort of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the appropriate location can certainly boost a property’s worth the wrong tree can hurt property’s value. Often times we can improve the curb appeal of a building 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. Having said that at times to improve the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times two things can not inhabit the same location. This is the instance of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Generally in these situations tree removal is the only choice and if you are feeling down about clearing away your best-loved tree you can always plant another one. Even though it will not mature in our life time our children or somebody else’s kids may well appreciate it.

Liability issues: Our people are not attorneys but here is the way fallen trees are normally interpreted based upon the law. If the tree was not clearly dead or diseased you are not deemed to be negligent or liable for the tree dropping down. You remove the part of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is obligated with respect to 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 stipulation pointing out that these companies are exempt for lifeless or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you can 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 other side if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to protect yourself is to notify them in writing and let them know 99 % of competent tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notification to place the fee of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many homeowners that like to clean out gutters. We really could start a gutter maintenance business with the quantity of telephone calls we get searching for a good low-cost gutter cleaning service. Every one would like a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the low-cost ones I know typically aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to refer them. Nevertheless clogged gutters are worse compared to not having gutters whatsoever. Clogged downspouts cause the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water trapped 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. 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 remove trees because some people lay awake on blustery night-times due to a specific tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over the house. Unfortunately the only way to insure a tree does not fall on the home is to take down all big trees inside of close quarters. It may be downright costly to remove a bunch of trees near your Cornwall NY residential property and sometimes this eases the fear but leaves behind some regret. Often fears could be relieved by having a tree service company examine the trees to ensure none of these have any flaws that would make them a more than normal threat. If a tree has to be taken down you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree destroyer. Just simply plant a new native tree at a more desirable 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 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 sown in a non harvest area within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
