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: Occasionally storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is still a good practice to have each and every tree that has recently lost a substantial limb looked at by a tree professional who can possibly do a risk assessment on the tree to verify more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service free of charge. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals carry out free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a total “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade that trees provide decreases cooling expenditures in the summer season and provides a buffer from the winter wind. However the reduction in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance expenditures to increase (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees next 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 penetrated his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a lot of money having someone else trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then afterwards had 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 shingles or siding.

Sometimes if a tree is very close to a house we can simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if many limbs need to be removed it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be more suitable to take out the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or just think about a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots can sometimes clog up your septic system| or they can crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or home. Since there is no alternative way to stop this other than tree removal it is always advised to conduct some research or consult with a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a house or driveway. Often people fail to envisage 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 next owner to have to find a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their proportions trees can overshadow much smaller plants. House owners ought to go with bushes or shrubs that have the ability to tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they have to cope with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that is not performing well under a tree could be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only prosper in full sunshine. While it may be cheaper to take out the tree| if you really like the tree you may seek advice from a landscape professional about changing to a different sort of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the proper location can certainly increase a homes market value the wrong tree can hurt a home’s value. Often we can improve the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is merely clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. However in certain cases to boost the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes two things can not inhabit the very same location. This is the case of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Generally in these situations tree removal is the sole solution and if you are really feeling depressed about clearing away your treasured tree you can always plant a different one. Even if it will not mature in our life-time our children or someone else’s kids may enjoy it.

Liability issues: are certainly not lawyers but here is the way in which falling trees are normally translated according to the law. In the case that the tree was not clearly dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be neglectful or to blame for the tree falling. You remove the portion of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is responsible with regard to tree removal and repairs to his property. You are actually only liable for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the next-door neighbor could file suit and several insurance policies have a provision saying that they are exempt for lifeless or diseased trees. If this were to happen you might 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 side if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to safeguard yourself is to advise 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 fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know of many individuals who like to clean out gutters. We literally could start a gutter maintenance business with the amount of calls we get looking for a good affordable gutter cleaning service. Every one wants to have a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the cheap ones I know aren’t insured and as a result I refuse to refer them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are more frustrating than not having gutters whatsoever. Blocked downspouts cause the water to overflow onto 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 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 simply because some people lay awake on windy nights as a result of a certain tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over the house. The fact is the only way to guarantee a tree will never fall on the home is to take out all large trees inside of close quarters. It can possibly be costly to remove a bunch of trees near your Monroe NY property and sometimes this eliminates the fear but leaves some remorse. Typically fears can be appeased by having a tree service professional inspect the trees to make sure none of these have any defects that would make them a higher than normal threat. If a tree requires to be taken down you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. 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 provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They grow a tree for every dollar donated and you can even choose the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a few planted in a non harvest place within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
