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 Pine Island 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 take any tree that has recently lost a pretty big limb assessed by a tree professional that can possibly do a risk assessment on the tree to check more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service free of cost. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always require tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals offer free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a real “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade that trees offer decreases cooling costs in the summer season and provides a buffer against the winter wind. However the reduction in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance costs to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees next to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to penetrate the attic. A client of ours had us remove some trees touching his house due to the fact that a family of squirrels which had penetrated his attic and tramped down 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 had to re-insulate and rewire the attic. In scenarios where limbs are actually touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can lead to damaged roof shingles or home siding.

Sometimes when a tree is too near to a home we will be able to simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if many limbs need to be taken off it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be more effective to take out the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or just 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 property. Since there is no other to stop this other than tree removal it is always best to carry out some research or hire a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a building 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 require to locate a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: As a result of their scale trees can overshadow small plants. Home-owners should certainly go for bushes or shrubs which have the ability to tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they have to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well beneath a tree could be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only do well in full direct sunlight. Whilst it may be cheaper to remove the tree| if you love the tree you could consult a landscape expert about switching to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the right location can easily boost a homes value the wrong tree can impact a home’s value. Often times we can enhance the curb appeal of a property 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. Having said that sometimes to boost the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees often two things can not really inhabit the very same site. This is the scenario of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Usually in these circumstances tree removal is the sole alternative and if you are feeling down about extracting your beloved tree you can always plant another one. Even though it will not mature in our life-time our kids or someone else’s kids can enjoy it.

Liability issues: are not lawyer or attorneys however this is how fallen trees are usually translated according to the law. In the case that the tree was not clearly dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be negligent or to blame for the tree falling. You dispose of the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is obligated for tree removal and repair works to his premises. You are only liable for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or diseased the next-door neighbor could sue and a few insurance policies have a clause stating that these companies are exempt for lifeless or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you might 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 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 professional tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notice to position the fee of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know of many individuals that like to clean out gutters. We literally could start a gutter cleaning business with the amount of calls we receive seeking out a good inexpensive gutter cleaning service. Everyone wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the inexpensive ones I know aren’t insured and that is why I refuse to recommend them. Having said that clogged gutters are much worse compared to not having gutters at all. Obstructed 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. Otherwise 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 frequently remove trees simply because some people lay awake on stormy night-times because of a certain tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their property. The fact is the sole way to make sure a tree does not fall on the home is to take out all big trees within close quarters. It can possibly be costly to remove a load of trees near your Pine Island NY house and sometimes this eliminates the fear but leaves some remorse. Often fears can be soothed by having a tree service pro assess the trees to make sure none of them have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree needs to be removed you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Just simply plant a brand-new native tree at a more desirable location on your property and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you do not have space on your property but still want to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for each dollar donated and you can even specify the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a couple sown in a non harvest place within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
