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 Mountainville 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 a good practice to have each and every tree that has definitely lost a significant limb evaluated by a tree professional that 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 totally free. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always require 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 real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade which trees provide lowers cooling bills in the summertime and provides a buffer from the winter wind. On the other hand the decrease in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance costs to increase (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees next to houses can also make it possible for unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to gain access to the attic. A homeowner of ours had us take down some trees touching his house owing 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 take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then had 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 cause damaged roof shingles or siding.

In some cases whenever a tree is too close to a house we can simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from your home but if many limbs need to be cleared away it may cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be more suitable to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or basically consider 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 foundation. Since there is no way to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advisable to conduct some research or consult a landscape company when choosing on a location for trees around a house or driveway. Often people fail to understand 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 new owner to have to locate a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their proportions trees can overshadow small plants. Property owners should certainly go with bushes or shrubs which will tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they will have to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that isn’t performing well under a tree can be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only do well 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 professional about changing to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the right tree in the most appropriate location can easily increase a property’s market value the inappropriate tree can impact a home’s value. Oftentimes we can enhance the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is just simply removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. Unfortunately in certain cases to enhance the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes two things can not occupy the very same area. This is the scenario of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Oftentimes in these instances tree removal is the only option and if you are really feeling depressed about removing your treasured tree you can always plant a different one. Even though it does not mature in our lifetime our children or someone else’s kids may enjoy it.

Liability issues: We are not lawyers but here is insights on how fallen trees are often interpreted according to the law. On the assumption that the tree was not clearly dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be negligent or at fault for the tree dropping down. You remove the section of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is obligated for 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 neighbor could sue and a few insurance policies have a provision stating that they are exempt for deceased or diseased trees. If this were to happen you can be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a stipulation 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 notify them in writing and let them know 99 % of competent tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notification to place the fee of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know many homeowners who like to clean out gutters. We actually could start a gutter maintenance company with the quantity of telephone calls we receive seeking out a good low-cost gutter cleaner. Everybody 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. Having said that clogged gutters are more frustrating compared to not possessing gutters at all. Blocked downspouts trigger 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 right 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 often times remove trees because some people lay awake on stormy night-times due to a specific tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their property. The fact is the sole way to make sure a tree doesn’t fall on the home is to take out all large trees within close quarters. It can possibly be costly to remove a number of trees near your Mountainville NY house and often this gets rid of the fear but leaves behind some regret. Often fears can be calmed by having a tree service pro inspect the trees to make certain 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 killer. Just plant a new native tree at a more desirable 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 wish to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They grow a tree for each dollar donated and you can even specify the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a couple planted in a non harvest location within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
