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 have any tree that has lost a good sized limb surveyed by a tree professional who should do a risk assessment on the tree to make sure more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service totally free. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals carry out 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 which trees provide lowers cooling costs in the summer time and provides a barrier from the winter wind. On the other hand the reduction in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance costs to increase (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees alongside houses can also help unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to penetrate the attic. A customer of ours had us remove some trees touching on his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a bunch of money having somebody trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then needed 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 cause damaged shingles or siding.

Often when a tree is too close to a property we will be able to just trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if several limbs need to be taken off it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be better to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or just simply pick out 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 other to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advised to do some research or hire a landscape professional when choosing on a location for trees around a building 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 locate a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Thanks to their size trees can overshadow small plants. Property owners should choose bushes or shrubs that can tolerate the competition for direct sunlight and water or they will have to cope with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well underneath a tree could be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only flourish in full direct sunlight. Although it may be cheaper to remove the tree| if you really like the tree you might seek advice from a landscape company about changing to a different kind of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the most appropriate location can boost a homes worth the inappropriate tree can hurt a home’s value. Oftentimes we can enhance the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. Unfortunately in certain cases to boost the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times 2 things can not occupy the very same location. Such is the instance of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Generally in these situations tree removal is the sole option and if you are feeling down about extracting your best-loved tree you can always plant another one. Albeit it doesn’t mature in our lifespan our children or someone else’s kids can appreciate it.

Liability issues: Our people are not legal representatives but this is insights on how falling trees are normally translated based upon the law. In the case that the tree was not obviously dead or diseased you are not considered to be neglectful or to blame for the tree dropping down. You clear away the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is liable with respect to tree removal and repair works to his property. You are actually only responsible for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or diseased the next-door neighbor could file suit and a few insurance policies have a clause stating that they are exempt for deceased or diseased trees. If this were to happen you might be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s property and your insurance will not pay if they have a clause concerning dead or diseased trees. On the flip 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 assessment. Then if the tree falls on your residence you can use the written notification to position the cost of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know of many property owners who like to clean out gutters. We really could start a gutter maintenance operation with the amount of telephone calls we get looking for a good low-cost gutter cleaning service. Every one wants to have a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the inexpensive kind I know aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are much worse than not possessing gutters at all. Congested downspouts trigger 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. Or else 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 expert.

Peace of Mind: We oftentimes remove trees because some people lay awake on blustery nights due to a particular tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their property. The fact is the only way to insure a tree does not fall on the home is to clear away all big trees inside of striking distance. It can possibly be costly to remove a load of trees near your Montgomery NY home and sometimes this alleviates the fear but leaves behind some regret. Often fears could be calmed by having a tree service professional evaluate the trees to make certain none of them have any flaws that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree has to be removed you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree executioner. Simply plant a fresh 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 would like 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. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a few cultivated in a non harvest location within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
