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 Otisville 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 take every tree that has recently lost a pretty big limb examined by a tree professional that should do a risk evaluation on the tree to ascertain 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 require tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals perform free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a home is a total “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade that trees provide reduces cooling expenditures in the summer time and provides a buffer from the winter wind. Meanwhile the reduction in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance expenditures to increase (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees close to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to penetrate 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 tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a lot of money having somebody trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then afterwards had to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In situations where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can cause damaged shingles or siding.

Sometimes whenever a tree is too close to a property we will be able to just trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if several limbs need to be taken off it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be better to take out the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or simply pick and choose a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots will 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 advised to carry out some research or hire 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 next owner to have to pay a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their size trees can overshadow small plants. Property owners should choose bushes or shrubs that will tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they will have to live with a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that isn’t performing well under a tree can be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only prosper in full sunlight. Although it may be less costly to remove the tree| if you cherish the tree you could seek advice from a landscape expert about changing to a different kind of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the appropriate location may increase a property’s worth the inappropriate tree can damage a home’s value. Oftentimes we can enhance the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is merely clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Unfortunately sometimes to enhance the curb appeal we will have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times two things can not inhabit the very same spot. Such is the instance of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Generally in these cases tree removal is the sole option and if you are feeling down about clearing away your beloved tree you can always plant another one. Even though it may not mature in our lifespan our children or somebody else’s kids can take joy in it.

Liability issues: are not legal representatives however here is insights on how falling trees are commonly interpreted according to the law. In the event 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 responsible with respect to tree removal and repair works to his premises. You are only responsible for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or diseased the neighbor could file suit and a few insurance policies have a stipulation pointing out that they are exempt for deceased or diseased trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damage 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 protect yourself is to notify them in writing and let them find out 99 % of professional tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notice to place the expense of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know of many homeowners who like to clean gutters. We actually could start a gutter maintenance business with the amount of calls we get trying to find a good low-cost gutter cleaning service. Almost everyone wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the cheap ones I know typically aren’t insured and for this reason I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are more frustrating than not having gutters whatsoever. Obstructed 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 specialist.

Peace of Mind: We often times 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 house. Unfortunately the sole way to guarantee a tree does not fall on the home is to take down all big trees within striking distance. It can possibly be downright costly to remove a number of trees near your Otisville NY house and often this gets rid of the fear but leaves some regret. Commonly fears could be calmed by having a tree service company assess the trees to ensure none of these have any flaws that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree requires to be cleared away you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Just plant a brand new native tree at a better location on your estate and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you don’t have room 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 dollar donated and you can also specify the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a couple seeded in a non harvest area within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
