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 practice to take each and every tree that has likely lost a pretty big limb assessed by a tree professional who can do a risk assessment on the tree to make sure more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service free of charge. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals make available free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a total “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade that trees provide lowers cooling bills in the hot months and provides a buffer against the winter wind. On the other hand the reduction in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance bills to increase (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees close to houses can also enable unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to get into the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a bunch of money having someone else trap and clear away 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 effectively touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or siding.

Occasionally whenever a tree is very close to a home we may just trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if lots of limbs need to be taken off it might cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more suitable to take out the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or just simply pick 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 property. Since there is no way to stop this other than tree removal it is always advisable to carry out some research or consult with 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 just plan to sell the property before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to have to hire a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: As a result of their overall size trees can overshadow smaller plants. Home owners should choose bushes or shrubs that can tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they have to live with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that is not performing well under a tree can be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only flourish in full sunshine. Whilst it may be less costly to take out the tree| if you really love the tree you may seek advice from a landscape expert about switching to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the proper location can easily increase a property’s resale value the wrong tree can damage a home’s value. Often times we can improve the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is just simply getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of the house from the road. Having said that in certain cases to boost the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times two things can not really occupy the same spot. Such is the scenario of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Usually in these situations tree removal is the sole solution and if you are feeling down about clearing away your best-loved tree you can always plant a different one. Even though it doesn’t mature in our life-time our children or someone else’s children may well appreciate it.

Liability issues: Our people are certainly not lawyer or attorneys however here is the way in which falling trees are normally interpreted according to the law. If the tree was not clearly dead or diseased you are not considered to be negligent or liable for the tree falling. You remove the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is responsible when it comes to tree removal and repair works to his property. You are only responsible for your residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or unhealthy the neighbor could sue and some insurance policies have a provision saying that they are not responsible for deceased or diseased 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 stipulation concerning dead or diseased trees. On the other side if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to safeguard yourself is to advise 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 position the fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know many homeowners who like to clean out gutters. We literally could start a gutter maintenance operation with the amount of phone calls we get looking for a good affordable gutter cleaner. Every one would like a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-cost kind I know typically aren’t insured and for this reason I refuse to refer them. Nevertheless clogged gutters are more frustrating than not having gutters whatsoever. Blocked downspouts cause the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water trapped 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 if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal expert.

Peace of Mind: We frequently remove trees because some people lay awake on windy nights as a result of a specific tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their residence. Unfortunately the only way to insure a tree doesn’t fall on the home is to take down all large trees within striking distance. It can be costly to remove a number of trees near your Pine Island NY house and sometimes this gets rid of the fear but leaves some remorse. Commonly fears can be soothed by having a tree service professional inspect the trees to make sure none of these have any defects that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree has to be cleared away you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Just simply plant a brand-new native tree at a much better location on your property and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you don’t have space on your property but still wish to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for every single dollar donated and you can also choose the location by US State or country. Cut a tree in your yard and have a couple sown in a non harvest location within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
