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 have any tree that has lost a large limb assessed by a tree professional that can possibly do a risk evaluation on the tree to verify 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 warrant tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals perform free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a total “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade which trees render lowers cooling costs in the summer months and provides a barrier from the winter wind. On the other hand the decrease in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenses to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees beside houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter the attic. A client 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 bunch of money having somebody trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then had to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In situations where limbs are actually in contact with the house the continuous swaying of the trees can cause damaged roof shingles or siding.

At times whenever a tree is too near to a house we can just trim or cut back the tree limbs away from your home but if several 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 remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or just decide on 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 way to stop this other than tree removal it is always advised to carry out some research or hire a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a house or driveway. Often people fail to comprehend the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they might plan to sell the home before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to have to find a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their proportions trees can dominate much smaller plants. Home-owners should decide on bushes or shrubs which will tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they need to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well under a tree could be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only do well in full sunshine. Although it may be less expensive to take out the tree| if you enjoy the tree you might just speak with a landscape expert about switching to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the proper location can certainly improve a property’s worth the inappropriate tree can damage property’s value. Often times we can enhance the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is just simply getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of the house from the road. However sometimes to boost the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times two things can not occupy the same area. Such is the instance of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Often in these scenarios tree removal is the sole choice and if you are feeling depressed about removing your beloved tree you can always plant a different one. Albeit it may not mature in our lifespan our kids or someone else’s kids may appreciate it.

Liability issues: are certainly not lawyers but here is insights on how falling trees are basically interpreted according to the law. Assuming that the tree was not clearly dead or diseased you are not considered to be neglectful or to blame for the tree dropping down. You dispose of the portion 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 actually only liable for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the next-door neighbor could sue and several insurance policies have a stipulation stating that they are not responsible for deceased or diseased trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a clause concerning dead or diseased trees. On the other hand if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the best way to safeguard yourself is to notify them in writing and let them find out 99 % of professional tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notification to place the expense of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many property owners that like to clean out gutters. We literally could start a gutter maintenance company with the number of calls we get seeking out a good inexpensive gutter cleaning service. Everybody wants to have a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the inexpensive kind I know typically aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to refer them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are worse than not having gutters whatsoever. Clogged up downspouts trigger the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water trapped behind the gutters causes them 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 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 blustery nights because of a particular tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their house. The fact is the only way to make certain a tree does not fall on the home is to clear away all large trees within striking distance. It can be expensive to remove a bunch of trees near your Middletown NY residence and often this eliminates the fear but leaves behind some regret. Often fears can be calmed by having a tree service expert 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 really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Just plant a brand-new native tree at a better location on your estate and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you do not have space on your property but still wish to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for each dollar donated and you can even choose the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a couple seeded in a non harvest site within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
