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: 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 take any tree that has definitely lost a large limb assessed by a tree professional that may do a risk evaluation on the tree to make sure 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 warrant tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals provide free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade that trees provide decreases cooling costs in the summer and provides a buffer from the winter wind. Meanwhile the decrease in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance costs to increase (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees near to houses can also help unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching on his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had penetrated his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a bunch of money having someone trap and take out 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 in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can result in damaged roof shingles or siding.

Sometimes if a tree is very close to a property we will be able to just trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if lots of limbs need to be taken off it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be far better to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or simply look for 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 foundation. Since there is no other to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advised to conduct some research or hire a landscape professional when choosing on a location for trees around a house or driveway. Often people fail to envisage the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they may plan to sell the house before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to have to hire a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Thanks to their overall size trees can overshadow small plants. Property owners should pick bushes or shrubs that can 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 is not performing well underneath a tree can be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only flourish in full sunshine. Whilst it may be more affordable to remove the tree| if you love the tree you might seek advice from a landscape professional about changing to a different kind of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the correct location can certainly increase a property’s resale value the wrong tree can impact property’s value. Often we can greatly improve the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Having said that sometimes to enhance the curb appeal we will have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes 2 things can not occupy the very same spot. This is the case of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Normally in these instances tree removal is the only alternative and if you are really feeling depressed about taking out your beloved tree you can always plant a different one. Even though it will not mature in our life-time our children or somebody else’s kids can take joy in it.

Liability issues: We are certainly not attorneys but this is the way in which fallen trees are typically interpreted based upon the law. Assuming that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be neglectful or to blame for the tree dropping down. You clear away the portion of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is responsible for tree removal and repair works to his premises. You are only responsible for your residential property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or diseased the next-door neighbor could sue and some insurance policies have a provision saying that they are exempt for dead or unhealthy 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 clause concerning 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 know 99 % of professional tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notification to position the fee of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many property owners who like to clean gutters. We literally could start a gutter cleaning business with the number of telephone calls we get looking for a good inexpensive gutter cleaner. Everyone wants a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the cheap kind I know typically aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to recommend them. Nevertheless clogged gutters are much worse than not possessing gutters whatsoever. Clogged up downspouts cause 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. 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 expert.

Peace of Mind: We oftentimes 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 the house. The fact is the sole way to insure a tree doesn’t fall on the home is to take down all big trees inside of striking distance. It can possibly be downright costly to remove a load of trees near your Pine Island NY property and often this eliminates the fear but leaves behind some regret. Often fears could be soothed by having a tree service company assess the trees to make sure none of these have any defects that would make them a more than normal threat. If a tree has to be removed you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Just simply plant a brand-new native tree at a more desirable location on your estate and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you do not have room 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 also specify the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a couple planted in a non harvest place within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
