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 Howells 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 practice to take every tree that has recently lost a significant limb checked by a tree professional that may do a risk evaluation on the tree to check more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service totally free. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always require tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals provide free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a real “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade that trees offer decreases cooling bills in the hot months and provides a buffer against the winter wind. On the other hand the decrease in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance bills to increase (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees alongside houses can also allow unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to get into the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching his house because a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a bunch of money having someone trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and afterwards had to re-insulate and rewire the attic. In cases where limbs are actually touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can cause damaged shingles or home siding.

At times whenever a tree is very near to a house we can simply trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if a lot of limbs need to be removed it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be better to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or simply think about a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots can sometimes clog up your septic system| or they might crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or building. Since there is no way 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 comprehend the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they may plan to sell the house before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to require to locate a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their proportions trees can dominate much smaller plants. Property owners should certainly decide on bushes or shrubs which can tolerate the competition for direct sunlight and water or they will have to cope with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that is not performing well beneath a tree could be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only do well in full sun light. Even though it may be less expensive to take out the tree| if you really like the tree you may speak with 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 correct location can easily increase a homes resale value the wrong tree can hurt property’s value. Often times 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 home from the road. Having said that in some cases to improve the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times 2 things can not really inhabit the same location. Such is the scenario of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Usually in these cases tree removal is the sole solution and if you are feeling down about getting rid of your treasured tree you can always plant another one. Even if it does not mature in our life time our kids or someone else’s kids can appreciate it.

Liability issues: are not attorneys however this is how falling trees are often translated 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 clear away the section of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is obligated when it comes to tree removal and repairs to his property. You are only liable for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the neighbor could sue and some insurance policies have a stipulation pointing out that they are exempt for deceased or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you could 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 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 residence you can use the written notification to position the cost of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know many individuals that like to clean out gutters. We actually could start a gutter maintenance business with the amount of telephone calls we get looking for a good affordable gutter cleaning service. Everyone would like a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the low-cost kind I know typically aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to recommend them. However clogged gutters are much worse compared to not having gutters whatsoever. Clogged up downspouts trigger the water to overflow onto 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 right after all the leaves have fallen and in the event that you get fed up with that we are a tree removal specialist.

Peace of Mind: We frequently remove trees simply because some people lay awake on stormy night-times due to a specific tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the only way to make certain a tree will never fall on the home is to take out all big trees within striking distance. It can be pricey to remove a bunch of trees near your Howells NY residence and sometimes this gets rid of the fear but leaves behind some regret. Commonly fears could be calmed by having a tree service company inspect the trees to make sure none of these have any defects that would make them a more than normal threat. If a tree has to be removed you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Just simply plant a new native tree at a more desirable location on your estate and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you do not have space 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 choose the location by US State or country. Cut a tree in your yard and have a couple sown in a non harvest place within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
