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 Johnson 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 each and every tree that has recently lost a large limb surveyed by a tree professional that may do a risk assessment on the tree to ensure that more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service free of charge. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals perform free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a home is a total “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade that trees offer reduces cooling costs in the summer 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 costs to increase (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees near to houses can also help unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to penetrate the attic. A customer of ours had us take down some trees touching on his house due to the fact that a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having someone else trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then had to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In cases where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can result in damaged roof shingles or home siding.

Often if a tree is too near to a property we may simply trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if a lot of limbs need to be cleared away it might 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 just simply make a decision on 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 property. Since there is no other to stop this other than tree removal it is always best to conduct some research or consult a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a home or driveway. Often people fail to understand the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they just plan to sell the property before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to have to hire a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: As a result of their overall size trees can overshadow much smaller plants. Home owners should certainly go for bushes or shrubs that are able to tolerate the competition for direct sunlight and water or they need to cope with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that is not performing well underneath a tree can be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only prosper in full direct sunlight. Although it may be less costly to remove the tree| if you really like the tree you might just speak with a landscape expert about changing to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the proper location may increase a homes market value the wrong tree can impact 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 basically getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Unfortunately at times to enhance the curb appeal we will have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically two things can not inhabit the same spot. This is the scenario of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Often in these circumstances tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are feeling down about clearing away your beloved tree you can always plant another one. Albeit it doesn’t mature in our life-time our children or someone else’s kids may well appreciate it.

Liability issues: are certainly not lawyers but here is the way fallen trees are often interpreted based upon the law. Assuming that the tree was not clearly dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be negligent 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 responsible 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 several insurance policies have a clause stating that these companies are not responsible for deceased or diseased trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s property and your insurance will not pay if they have a clause concerning dead or diseased trees. On the flip side if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the best way to protect yourself is to notify 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 cost of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many individuals that like to clean gutters. We literally could start a gutter cleaning business with the quantity of telephone calls we get seeking out a good low-cost gutter cleaner. Everybody wants to have a cheap gutter cleaner but all the cheap kind I know aren’t insured and for this reason I refuse to refer them. Nevertheless clogged gutters are worse compared to not possessing gutters whatsoever. Clogged downspouts trigger the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water trapped behind the gutters causes these 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 often times remove trees simply because some people lay awake on stormy night-times as a result of a particular tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their property. The fact is the sole way to make sure a tree doesn’t fall on the home is to clear away all big trees inside of striking distance. It could be pricey to remove a bunch of trees near your Johnson NY residential property and often this alleviates the fear but leaves behind some regret. Typically fears could be soothed by having a tree service pro assess the trees to make sure none of these have any flaws that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree requires to be cleared away you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree destroyer. Just simply plant a brand new native tree at a more desirable location on your property and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you don’t have space on your property but still wish to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They grow a tree for every dollar donated and you can also specify the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a couple planted in a non harvest place within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
