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 On Hudson 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 take each and every tree that has definitely lost a large limb evaluated by a tree professional who can possibly do a risk evaluation on the tree to verify more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service for free. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always require tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals make available free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a home is a real “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade that trees provide decreases cooling bills in the summer and provides a barrier against the winter wind. However the drop in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance costs to increase (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees near to houses can also make it possible for unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to gain access to the attic. A customer of ours had us remove some trees touching his house because a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having someone trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then afterwards needed to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In situations where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the continuous swaying of the trees can lead to damaged shingles or home siding.

Occasionally whenever a tree is very near to a home we may simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if several limbs need to be taken off it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be better to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or simply pick and choose a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots may clog up your septic system| or they could crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or foundation. Since there is no other to stop this other than tree removal it is always advised to do some research or consult a landscape company 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 might plan to sell the building before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to require to hire a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their size trees can overshadow smaller plants. Homeowners should choose bushes or shrubs that are able to tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they have to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well beneath a tree could be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only do well in full direct sunlight. Although it may be cheaper to take out the tree| if you cherish the tree you may speak with a landscape company about changing to a different kind of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the proper location may improve a homes market value the wrong tree can hurt a home’s value. In many cases we can greatly improve the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of the house from the road. However in some cases to boost the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees often 2 things can not really inhabit the same location. This is the case of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Generally in these instances tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are feeling depressed about getting rid of your treasured tree you can always plant another one. Albeit it does not mature in our lifespan our kids or someone else’s children can take joy in it.

Liability issues: are certainly not lawyers but here is the way in which falling trees are generally interpreted based upon the law. Assuming that the tree was not clearly dead or diseased you are not deemed to be neglectful or to blame for the tree falling. You remove the section of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is obligated when it comes to tree removal and repairs to his premises. You are only liable for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the neighbor could sue and several insurance policies have a stipulation pointing out that they are exempt for dead or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you might 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 side if you have a next-door 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 notice to place the cost of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many homeowners that like to clean out gutters. We actually could start a gutter cleaning operation with the number of calls we get looking for a good cheap gutter cleaning service. Every one wants to have a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the low-priced kind I know aren’t insured and as a result I refuse to refer them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are much worse compared to not having gutters whatsoever. Clogged downspouts cause the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water caught behind the gutters causes them to rot. So that requires you to put in 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 oftentimes remove trees because some people lay awake on stormy night-times because of a specific tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the only way to guarantee a tree does not fall on the house is to clear away all big trees inside of close quarters. It could be pricey to remove a bunch of trees near your Cornwall On Hudson NY residential property and often this gets rid of the fear but leaves behind some regret. Typically fears could be calmed by having a tree service expert inspect the trees to ensure none of these have any defects that would make them a more than normal threat. If a tree requires 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 better location on your estate and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you don’t have room on your property but still want to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for each dollar donated and you can even specify the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a few sown in a non harvest area within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
