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 Middletown 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 still a good practice to take every tree that has recently lost a large limb checked by a tree professional who can possibly do a risk assessment on the tree to ascertain more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service for free. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate 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 provide reduces cooling bills in the summertime and provides a barrier from the winter wind. On the other hand the drop in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance expenditures to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees close to houses can also allow unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to gain access to the attic. A homeowner of ours had us remove some trees touching on his house owing to a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and trampled 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| then afterwards had to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In scenarios where limbs are effectively touching the house the continuous swaying of the trees can lead to damaged shingles or siding.

Sometimes if a tree is too near to a property we may simply trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if several limbs need to be removed it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be more suitable to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or basically choose on a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots may clog up your septic system| or they might crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or foundation. Since there is no other to stop this other than tree removal it is always advised to do some research or consult a landscape company when choosing on a location for trees around a house or driveway. Often people fail to anticipate the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they might plan to sell the property before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to require to locate a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: A result of their overall size trees can dominate smaller plants. Home-owners should certainly select bushes or shrubs which will tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they have to cope with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well under a tree can be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only prosper in full sunlight. Although it may be less expensive to remove the tree| if you really like the tree you may seek advice from a landscape company about switching to a different type of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the most appropriate location can increase a homes worth the wrong tree can damage property’s value. In many cases we can enhance the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your property from the road. However at times to boost the curb appeal we will have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees often 2 things can not inhabit the same area. This is the scenario of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Often in these circumstances 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 though it may not mature in our lifetime our kids or somebody else’s children may take joy in it.

Liability issues: Our people are not legal representatives but here is the way in which falling trees are usually translated based upon the law. Assuming that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be neglectful or liable for the tree falling. You remove the part of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is responsible with regard to tree removal and repair works to his property. You are only responsible for your residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the neighbor could file suit and a few insurance policies have a stipulation pointing out that they are not responsible for dead or diseased trees. If this were to happen you can 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 safeguard yourself is to advise them in writing and let them know 99 % of competent tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your residence you can use the written notification to position the fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many individuals that like to clean out gutters. We actually could start a gutter maintenance company with the amount of phone calls we get searching for a good cheap gutter cleaning service. Every one wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-cost ones I know aren’t insured and for this reason I refuse to refer them. Nevertheless clogged gutters are worse than not having gutters at all. Blocked downspouts cause the water to overflow into 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. Alternatively clean them yearly right after all the leaves have fallen and if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal expert.

Peace of Mind: We oftentimes remove trees simply because some people lay awake on blustery 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 guarantee a tree does not fall on the home is to remove all large trees within striking distance. It may be downright costly to remove a number of trees near your Middletown NY house and often this alleviates the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Often fears can be soothed by having a tree service professional inspect the trees to make certain none of these have any flaws that would make them a more than normal threat. If a tree has to be cleared away you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Simply plant a new native tree at a more desirable 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 wish to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for each dollar donated and you can also specify the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a few sown in a non harvest place within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
