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 Monroe 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: Usually storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is still a good practice to have any specific tree that has definitely lost a pretty big limb looked at by a tree professional that can possibly do a risk assessment on the tree to make sure more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service free of cost. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate 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 expenditures in the summer months and provides a buffer against the winter wind. Meanwhile the reduction in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance expenditures to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees alongside houses can also help unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching his house owing to a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot 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 loft. In scenarios where limbs are actually touching the house the continuous swaying of the trees can lead to damaged shingles or siding.

Often if a tree is too near to a house we can simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if a lot of limbs need to be cleared away it may cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more effective to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or simply pick a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots may 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 best to conduct some research or refer to a landscape company when deciding on a location for trees around a property or driveway. Often people fail to anticipate 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 next owner to require to hire a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their overall size trees can overshadow much smaller plants. Homeowners should pick bushes or shrubs that have the ability to tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they need to live with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that isn’t really 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 expensive to take out the tree| if you really love the tree you might seek advice from a landscape professional about switching to a different sort of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the appropriate location can certainly increase a property’s worth the inappropriate tree can impact a home’s value. In many cases we can enhance the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically 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 resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times 2 things can not really occupy the same site. Such is the case of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Oftentimes in these circumstances tree removal is the only alternative and if you are really feeling down about clearing away your best-loved tree you can always plant a different one. Even if it doesn’t mature in our life time our children or someone else’s kids may well appreciate it.

Liability issues: We are not legal professionals but this is how fallen trees are generally translated based upon the law. Assuming that the tree was not obviously dead or diseased you are not considered to be negligent or liable for the tree falling. You remove the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is liable when it comes to tree removal and repair works to his premises. You are actually only liable for your residential property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is perished or unhealthy the neighbor could sue and a few insurance policies have a stipulation pointing out that they are exempt for lifeless or diseased 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 stipulation about dead or diseased trees. On the other hand if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the best way to safeguard yourself is to notify them in writing and let them know 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 of many people who like to clean gutters. We really could start a gutter maintenance company with the quantity of phone calls we get searching for a good inexpensive gutter cleaning service. Everybody would like a cheap gutter cleaner but all the cheap ones I know typically aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to recommend them. Having said that clogged gutters are worse than not possessing gutters whatsoever. Congested downspouts cause 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. Otherwise clean them yearly after all the leaves have fallen and if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal specialist.

Peace of Mind: We oftentimes remove trees simply because some people lay awake on windy night-times due to a specific tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their property. Unfortunately the only way to insure a tree doesn’t fall on the home is to take down all large trees within striking distance. It may be downright costly to remove a number of trees near your Monroe NY property and often this eases the fear but leaves behind some regret. Commonly fears can be relieved by having a tree service expert inspect the trees to make certain none of them have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. If a tree has to be taken down you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree executioner. Just simply plant a brand 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 wish to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for each dollar donated and you can also choose the location by US State or country. Cut a tree in your yard and have a few cultivated in a non harvest area within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
