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 Greenwood Lake 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 any specific tree that has lost a substantial limb assessed by a tree professional that may do a risk evaluation on the tree to ascertain more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service free of cost. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals provide free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a real “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade that trees offer lowers cooling bills in the summer season and provides a buffer against the winter wind. However the reduction in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenses to grow (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees near to houses can also enable unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching his house due to the fact that 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 clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then needed to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In cases where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can cause damaged roof shingles or siding.

Often when a tree is too near to a property we may simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if lots of limbs need to be removed it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more suitable to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or basically pick and choose a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots can sometimes clog up your septic system| or they can crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or home. Since there is no alternative way to stop this other than tree removal it is always advisable to conduct some research or consult a landscape professional when choosing on a location for trees around a building 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 new owner to require to find a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Thanks to their size trees can dominate much smaller plants. Home owners should certainly select bushes or shrubs that can tolerate the competition for direct sunlight and water or they have to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that is not performing well beneath a tree can be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only flourish in full sun light. While it may be less costly to take out the tree| if you cherish the tree you might just consult a landscape professional about changing to a different type of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the appropriate location can certainly improve a property’s market value the inappropriate tree can damage a home’s value. Often we can greatly improve the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is merely removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. However in certain cases to boost the curb appeal we will have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes 2 things can not really inhabit the same site. Such is the scenario of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Normally in these situations tree removal is the only choice and if you are really feeling depressed about removing your best-loved tree you can always plant a different one. Even though it may not mature in our life-time our children or someone else’s children may well enjoy it.

Liability issues: Our people are certainly not lawyers but here is the way in which fallen trees are usually translated according to the law. In the event that the tree was not clearly dead or diseased you are not considered to be neglectful or to blame for the tree dropping down. You remove the portion 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 responsible for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the next-door neighbor could sue and a few insurance policies have a clause stating that these companies are not responsible for perished or diseased 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 stipulation concerning 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 advise them in writing and let them find out 99 % of professional tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notice to place the expense of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know of many people who like to clean out gutters. We really could start a gutter maintenance company with the number of calls we receive searching for a good affordable gutter cleaner. Every one would like a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the low-priced kind I know typically aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to refer them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are worse than not having gutters at all. 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 shortly 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 nights because of a specific tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their property. Unfortunately the only way to insure a tree doesn’t fall on the house is to clear away all large trees within close quarters. It could be pricey to remove a load of trees near your Greenwood Lake NY home and often this gets rid of the fear but leaves some regret. Typically fears could be soothed by having a tree service professional inspect the trees to make sure none of these have any defects that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree requires to be cleared away you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Simply plant a brand-new native tree at a much better location on your estate and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you don’t have room on your property but still wish to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for every 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 planted in a non harvest location within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
