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 idea to have any tree that has likely lost a sizable limb surveyed by a tree professional that can do a risk assessment on the tree to check more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service totally free. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always require tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals provide free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a home is a total “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade which trees render decreases cooling costs in the summertime and provides a barrier against the winter wind. However the reduction in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenditures to grow (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees alongside houses can also enable unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A homeowner of ours had us remove some trees touching on his house because a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a lot of money having somebody trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| 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.

In some cases when a tree is too near to a property we will be able to just trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if lots of limbs need to be taken off it could 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 just simply settle on a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots will clog up your septic system| or they can crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or home. Since there is no way to prevent 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 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 home before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to require to locate a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: A result of their scale trees can dominate much smaller plants. Home-owners ought to pick bushes or shrubs which will tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they will have to live with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that is not performing well under a tree could be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only prosper in full sunshine. Although it may be more affordable to take out the tree| if you cherish the tree you might just seek advice from a landscape expert about changing to a different sort of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the right tree in the right location can certainly boost a homes market value the wrong tree can hurt a home’s value. Oftentimes we can improve the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Having said that at times to enhance the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically two things can not really inhabit the very same site. Such is the scenario of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Often in these cases tree removal is the only option and if you are really feeling down about clearing away your favorite tree you can always plant a different one. Even though it does not mature in our life time our children or someone else’s children may well take joy in it.

Liability issues: We are certainly not attorneys however here is the way fallen trees are normally interpreted based upon the law. On the assumption that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be neglectful or liable for the tree dropping down. You dispose of the portion of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is obligated when it comes to tree removal and repairs to his premises. You are actually only liable for your residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the next-door neighbor could sue and some insurance policies have a stipulation saying that they are not responsible for dead 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 stipulation about dead or diseased trees. On the other side if you have a 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 residence you can use the written notification to place the fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know many people that like to clean out gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning company with the amount of calls we get seeking out a good cheap gutter cleaner. Everyone would like a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the low-priced ones I know typically aren’t insured and that is why I refuse to refer them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are worse than not possessing gutters at all. Obstructed 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 put in a gutter cap like http://www.leafguard.com or http://www.gutterguardian.com. Alternatively clean them yearly 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 oftentimes remove trees because some people lay awake on stormy nights because of a certain tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their property. Unfortunately the sole way to guarantee a tree will never fall on the house is to take down all big trees within striking distance. It may be costly to remove a number of trees near your Montgomery NY home and often this eases the fear but leaves some remorse. Often fears could be appeased by having a tree service company assess the trees to make certain none of these have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree requires to be removed you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree destroyer. Just 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 wish to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for every single dollar donated and you can even specify the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a few planted in a non harvest area within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
