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: Sometimes storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is still a good idea to have each and every tree that has likely lost a pretty big limb inspected by a tree professional that should do a risk evaluation on the tree to make sure 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 necessitate 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 which trees render decreases cooling costs in the hot months and provides a buffer against the winter wind. On the other hand the reduction in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance bills to increase (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees close to houses can also help unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to gain access to the attic. A customer of ours had us remove some trees touching his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had penetrated his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a bunch of money having somebody trap and remove 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 touching the house the continuous swaying of the trees can lead to damaged roof shingles or siding.

Sometimes whenever a tree is very near to a house 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 that case it may be more effective to take out the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or just go with 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 property. Since there is no other to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advised to carry out some research or consult with a landscape company when deciding on a location for trees around a property or driveway. Often people fail to comprehend the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they just plan to sell the house before it reaches maturity leaving the subsequent owner to have to pay a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their size trees can dominate smaller plants. Home owners should decide on 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 underneath a tree could be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only flourish in full direct sunlight. Although it may be more affordable to take out the tree| if you really love the tree you could consult a landscape company about switching to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the appropriate location can boost a homes resale value the inappropriate tree can damage a home’s value. Often times we can improve the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is merely getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Unfortunately sometimes to improve the curb appeal we will have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically two things can not really inhabit the same location. This is the instance of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Usually in these instances tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are really feeling depressed about getting rid of your beloved tree you can always plant another one. Even if it does not mature in our lifespan our children or someone else’s children can appreciate it.

Liability issues: We are not legal professionals but here is how fallen trees are generally interpreted according to the law. In the case that the tree was not clearly dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be negligent or at fault for the tree falling. You remove the section of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is liable when it comes to tree removal and repairs to his premises. 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 a few insurance policies have a clause stating that they are exempt for perished or diseased trees. If this were to happen you can be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s 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 very 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 residence you can use the written notice to position the fee of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know of many homeowners who like to clean out gutters. We actually could start a gutter cleaning business with the amount of telephone calls we receive searching for a good affordable gutter cleaner. Almost everyone wants a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the inexpensive kind I know typically aren’t insured and as a result I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are much worse than not having gutters at all. Blocked downspouts trigger the water to overflow onto 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. Or else 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 specialist.

Peace of Mind: We frequently remove trees because some people lay awake on windy nights due to a particular tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their residence. Unfortunately the only way to guarantee a tree doesn’t fall on the house is to clear away all large trees within striking distance. It could be expensive to remove a bunch of trees near your Johnson NY home and sometimes this eliminates the fear but leaves some regret. Commonly fears could be calmed by having a tree service professional assess the trees to make sure none of these have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree needs to be cleared away you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree destroyer. Just plant a brand-new native tree at a far better location on your estate and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you do not have space on your property but still want to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for every single dollar donated and you can also specify the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a few planted in a non harvest site within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
