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 still a good idea to have any specific tree that has definitely lost a substantial limb assessed by a tree professional that can do a risk assessment on the tree to ascertain 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 property is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade which trees render reduces cooling bills in the summer season and provides a barrier against the winter wind. Meanwhile the reduction in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance costs to increase (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees beside houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A client of ours had us remove some trees touching on his house due to the fact that a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a lot of money having someone trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then needed to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In cases where limbs are actually in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can result in damaged roof shingles or siding.

In some cases when a tree is very near to a house we will be able to just trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if lots of limbs need to be removed it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more effective to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or simply make a decision on a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots can sometimes clog up your septic system| or they could crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or building. Since there is no alternative way to stop this other than tree removal it is always best to do some research or consult with a landscape professional when choosing on a location for trees around a building or driveway. Often people fail to comprehend the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they may plan to sell the home 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 scale trees can dominate much smaller plants. Property owners ought to decide on bushes or shrubs which can tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they have to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well under a tree can be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only flourish in full sunlight. Although it may be cheaper to take out the tree| if you love the tree you might just consult a landscape professional about changing to a different type of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the most appropriate location can increase a property’s market value the wrong tree can hurt a home’s value. Often we can enhance the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Having said that in certain cases to boost the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes 2 things can not really inhabit the same location. Such is the scenario of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Usually in these scenarios tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are feeling depressed about clearing away your best-loved tree you can always plant a different one. Albeit it will not mature in our lifetime our kids or someone else’s children may appreciate it.

Liability issues: We are not lawyer or attorneys but this is how fallen trees are usually translated according to the law. Assuming that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be neglectful or liable for the tree dropping down. You remove the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is obligated with regard to tree removal and repair works to his premises. You are only liable for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the next-door neighbor could file suit and some insurance policies have a clause pointing out that these companies are exempt for lifeless or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s 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 neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to protect 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 residence you can use the written notification to place the expense of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many people who like to clean gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning company with the quantity of calls we get searching for a good low-cost gutter cleaner. Almost everyone wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-priced kind I know aren’t insured and for this reason I refuse to refer them. However clogged gutters are more frustrating than not possessing gutters whatsoever. Obstructed downspouts cause the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water trapped 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 right 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 often times remove trees simply because some people lay awake on windy night-times as a result of a certain tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their house. The fact is the only way to insure a tree does not fall on the home is to remove all large trees inside of striking distance. It may be expensive to remove a load of trees near your Montgomery NY house and sometimes this gets rid of the fear but leaves some remorse. Commonly fears can be relieved by having a tree service pro examine the trees to make sure none of these have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree needs to be cleared away you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Simply plant a new native tree at a more desirable 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 would like to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for every single dollar donated and you can also choose the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a couple cultivated in a non harvest site within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
