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 Montgomery 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: Sometimes storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is a good practice to take every tree that has likely lost a large limb checked out by a tree professional who 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 charge. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals perform free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a real “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade which trees provide lowers cooling expenditures in the hot months and provides a barrier against the winter wind. However the reduction 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 section below). Trees close to houses can also enable unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter 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 inside his attic and tramped down 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| and then had to re-insulate and rewire the attic. In situations where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the continuous swaying of the trees can cause damaged shingles or siding.

At times when a tree is very near to a property we may just trim or prune 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 far better to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or simply consider 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 prevent this other than tree removal it is always advised to carry out some research or consult a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a property or driveway. Often people fail to envisage the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they may plan to sell the house before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to have to hire a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: As a result of their proportions trees can dominate small plants. Home-owners should certainly pick bushes or shrubs that can tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they will have to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that is not performing well underneath a tree can be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only flourish in full sun light. Although it may be more affordable to remove the tree| if you really like the tree you might seek advice from a landscape expert about changing to a different type of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the correct location can easily increase a property’s value the wrong tree can hurt a home’s value. Often we can boost the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is just simply getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your property from the road. Having said that at times 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 inhabit the same site. This is the case of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Usually in these cases tree removal is the only option and if you are feeling depressed about clearing away your best-loved tree you can always plant another one. Albeit it doesn’t mature in our lifetime our kids or someone else’s children may well take joy in it.

Liability issues: are not lawyer or attorneys however this is the way in which falling trees are often interpreted based upon the law. In the event that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be neglectful or liable for the tree dropping down. You dispose of the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is responsible when it comes to tree removal and repairs to his premises. You are 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 some insurance policies have a provision saying that they are exempt for lifeless or unhealthy 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 best way to protect yourself is to advise them in writing and let them know 99 % of competent tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notice to place the fee of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know many property owners that like to clean out gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning operation with the quantity of telephone calls we receive seeking out a good inexpensive gutter cleaning service. Everybody would like a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-cost kind I know typically aren’t insured and that is why I refuse to recommend them. Having said that clogged gutters are more frustrating compared to not possessing gutters whatsoever. Congested downspouts trigger the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water trapped 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. Otherwise clean them yearly shortly 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 remove trees simply because some people lay awake on blustery nights as a result of a specific tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their residence. Unfortunately the sole way to make sure a tree will never fall on the home is to take down all large trees within striking distance. It can possibly be expensive to remove a load of trees near your Montgomery NY house and sometimes this alleviates the fear but leaves some remorse. Commonly fears could be soothed by having a tree service professional inspect the trees to make sure none of them have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. If a tree needs to be taken down you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree executioner. Just simply plant a brand-new native tree at a better location on your estate and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you do not have space on your property but still want to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for every 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 seeded in a non harvest area within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
