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 New Milford 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: Once in a while storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is a good idea to have every tree that has likely lost a sizable limb examined by a tree professional who can do a risk assessment on the tree to ascertain more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service free of cost. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always require tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals offer free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a home is a total “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade which trees provide decreases cooling bills in the summer months and provides a buffer from the winter wind. However the drop in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenses to grow (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees near to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter the attic. A homeowner of ours had us take down 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 bunch of money having somebody trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then needed to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In situations where limbs are actually touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can cause damaged shingles or home siding.

In some cases whenever a tree is very close to a home we will be able to just trim or cut back the tree limbs away from your home 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 better to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or basically figure out 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 other 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 home 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 building before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to have to pay a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: A result of their size trees can overshadow smaller plants. Homeowners ought to go for bushes or shrubs which will tolerate the competition for direct sunlight and water or they will have to live with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well under a tree could be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only flourish in full sun light. Even though it may be less expensive to take out the tree| if you really love the tree you may speak with a landscape company about changing to a different sort of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the right location may increase a property’s worth the inappropriate tree can damage property’s value. In many cases we can improve the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. However in some cases to improve the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes 2 things can not really occupy the very same area. This is the scenario of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Normally in these instances tree removal is the sole solution and if you are feeling depressed about extracting your best-loved tree you can always plant another one. Even if it will not mature in our lifetime our children or somebody else’s children can enjoy it.

Liability issues: are not lawyers however here is insights on how fallen trees are basically translated according to the law. In the case that the tree was not clearly dead or diseased you are not deemed to be negligent or at fault for the tree falling. You clear away the section of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is obligated when it comes to tree removal and repair works to his property. You are only liable for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or diseased the neighbor could sue and a few insurance policies have a provision saying that they are not responsible for deceased or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you may be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a stipulation about dead or diseased trees. On the other hand if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the best way to safeguard yourself is to notify them in writing and let them find out 99 % of competent tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notification to place the expense of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know many homeowners who like to clean gutters. We actually could start a gutter cleaning operation with the amount of phone calls we receive searching for a good low-cost gutter cleaner. Everybody wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the inexpensive ones I know typically aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to refer them. Nevertheless clogged gutters are worse than not having gutters whatsoever. Clogged 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 put in a gutter cap like http://www.leafguard.com or http://www.gutterguardian.com. Or else clean them yearly after all the leaves have fallen and if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal expert.

Peace of Mind: We frequently remove trees simply because some people lay awake on stormy night-times due to a certain tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their house. The fact is the sole way to make certain a tree doesn’t fall on the home is to take out all big trees within striking distance. It may be costly to remove a lot of trees near your New Milford NY property and often this gets rid of the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Often fears could be calmed by having a tree service company examine the trees to make sure none of these have any flaws that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree has to be taken down you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Simply plant a brand new native tree at a far better location on your property and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you don’t have space on your property but still would like to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for each 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 area within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
