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 Huguenot 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: Usually storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is a good idea to have every tree that has lost a substantial limb evaluated by a tree professional that can possibly do a risk assessment on the tree to check more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service free of charge. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals provide free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade which trees offer decreases cooling expenditures in the summertime and provides a barrier from the winter wind. Meanwhile the reduction in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance costs to grow (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees close to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to penetrate the attic. A homeowner of ours had us remove some trees touching his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had penetrated his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a lot of money having somebody trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and afterwards had to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In scenarios where limbs are actually in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can lead to damaged roof shingles or siding.

In some cases if a tree is too close to a property we can simply trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if several limbs need to be taken off it may cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be better to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or simply go for 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 property. Since there is no other to stop this other than tree removal it is always advisable to do some research or refer to a landscape company when choosing on a location for trees around a home 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 have to locate a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their size trees can overshadow much smaller plants. Homeowners ought to choose bushes or shrubs that are able to tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they will have to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well beneath a tree could be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only do well in full direct sunlight. Whilst it may be more affordable to take out the tree| if you love the tree you might consult a landscape professional about changing to a different sort of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the right tree in the proper location can certainly improve a property’s value the inappropriate tree can hurt a home’s value. Often times we can improve the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Unfortunately in certain cases to enhance the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically two things can not inhabit the very same area. Such is the instance of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Oftentimes in these cases tree removal is the only solution and if you are feeling depressed about extracting your best-loved tree you can always plant a different one. Albeit it doesn’t mature in our lifetime our kids or somebody else’s kids can appreciate it.

Liability issues: are not lawyers but here is the way falling trees are typically translated according to the law. On the assumption that the tree was not obviously dead or diseased you are not deemed to be neglectful or to blame for the tree dropping down. You dispose of the part of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is liable for tree removal and repairs to his premises. You are actually only responsible for your residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the next-door neighbor could file suit and a few insurance policies have a stipulation pointing out that they are exempt for lifeless or diseased trees. If this were to happen you can 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 neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to safeguard yourself is to notify them in writing and let them find out 99 % of competent 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 really don’t know many property owners who like to clean gutters. We really could start a gutter maintenance business with the amount of calls we receive looking for a good low-cost gutter cleaner. Everyone wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-cost ones I know aren’t insured and that is why I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are more frustrating than not having gutters whatsoever. Blocked downspouts trigger the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water caught behind the gutters causes these 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 right 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 windy night-times as a result of a certain tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their property. Unfortunately the only way to make certain a tree does not fall on the house is to remove all large trees inside of close quarters. It can be pricey to remove a great deal of trees near your Huguenot NY home and often this eases the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Typically fears can be calmed by having a tree service professional assess the trees to ensure none of them have any defects that would make them a more than normal threat. If a tree needs to be taken down you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Just plant a brand new native tree at a much better location on your estate and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you don’t have space on your property but still want to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for every dollar donated and you can even choose the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a couple planted in a non harvest area within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
