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 Maybrook 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: Once in a while storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is still a good idea to take each and every tree that has recently lost a pretty big limb looked over by a tree professional who should do a risk evaluation on the tree to ascertain more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service free of cost. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals provide free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a real “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade that trees offer reduces cooling costs in the summertime and provides a barrier against the winter wind. Meanwhile the reduction in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance costs to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees next 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 tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a bunch of money having someone else trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then needed to re-insulate and rewire the attic. In cases where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the continuous swaying of the trees can lead to damaged roof shingles or siding.

Often when a tree is too close to a property we may just trim or cut back the tree limbs away from your home but if many limbs need to be cleared away it might cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be far better to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or just go with a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots will clog up your septic system| or they could crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or building. Since there is no alternative way to stop this other than tree removal it is always prudent to do some research or consult a landscape company when deciding on a location for trees around a building 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 building before it reaches maturity leaving the subsequent owner to have to hire a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their overall size trees can dominate small plants. Property owners should certainly decide on bushes or shrubs which can tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they will have to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that is not performing well under a tree can be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only do well in full direct sunlight. Even though it may be less costly to remove the tree| if you cherish the tree you may seek advice from a landscape company about switching to a different sort of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the correct location can improve a homes worth the inappropriate tree can damage property’s value. Oftentimes we can enhance the curb appeal of a house 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. Unfortunately at times to boost the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically two things can not really inhabit the very same spot. This is the scenario of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Often in these scenarios tree removal is the only choice and if you are feeling down about taking out your beloved tree you can always plant a different one. Even if it does not mature in our lifespan our children or somebody else’s children can enjoy it.

Liability issues: We are not lawyer or attorneys however this is the way fallen trees are usually translated according to the law. In the case that the tree was not clearly dead or diseased you are not deemed to be negligent or to blame for the tree dropping down. You clear away the portion of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is responsible for tree removal and repairs to his premises. You are actually only liable for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the next-door neighbor could file suit and several insurance policies have a clause saying that they are exempt for lifeless or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s residential 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 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 assessment. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notification to place the fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know of many individuals who like to clean gutters. We actually could start a gutter cleaning business with the quantity of phone calls we receive trying to find a good inexpensive gutter cleaner. Every one wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the inexpensive kind I know aren’t insured and for that reason I refuse to refer them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are much worse than not possessing gutters at all. Blocked downspouts trigger the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water trapped 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 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 often times remove trees because some people lay awake on stormy nights as a result of a certain tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the sole way to make certain a tree will never fall on the house is to take down all big trees within close quarters. It may be expensive to remove a number of trees near your Maybrook NY residence and often this eliminates the fear but leaves some remorse. Often fears can be soothed by having a tree service company evaluate the trees to make sure none of them have any flaws 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 executioner. Just plant a new native tree at a much better location on your property and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you do not have room 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 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 location within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
