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 Slate Hill 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: Usually storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is still a good practice to take every tree that has lost a good sized limb examined by a tree professional that can do a risk evaluation on the tree to ensure that more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service for free. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals offer 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 lowers cooling expenditures in the summer and provides a barrier against the winter wind. Meanwhile the drop in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenditures to increase (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees close to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to get into the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching his house due to the fact that 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 remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then needed to re-insulate and rewire the attic. In cases where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can lead to damaged shingles or home siding.

At times whenever a tree is very close to a home we may just trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if lots of limbs need to be cleared away it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more suitable to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or just decide on 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 building. Since there is no way to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advisable to carry out some research or refer to a landscape company when choosing on a location for trees around a property or driveway. Often people fail to anticipate 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 require to pay a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: As a result of their scale trees can dominate smaller plants. House owners ought to decide on bushes or shrubs that are able to tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they will have to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that isn’t performing well beneath a tree can be assisted by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only do well in full sunshine. Although it may be less costly to remove the tree| if you really love the tree you might just speak with a landscape professional about changing to a different sort of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the right location can certainly boost a homes value the inappropriate tree can impact property’s value. Often we can boost the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. Unfortunately in certain cases to boost the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically 2 things can not really occupy the very same site. Such is the scenario of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Normally in these scenarios tree removal is the sole choice and if you are really feeling depressed about taking out your favorite tree you can always plant another one. Even if it may not mature in our life time our children or somebody else’s kids may take joy in it.

Liability issues: Our people are not lawyer or attorneys but here is insights on how fallen trees are often translated based upon the law. In the event that the tree was not clearly dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be negligent or at fault for the tree dropping down. You remove the portion of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is obligated for tree removal and repairs to his property. You are actually only responsible for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the next-door neighbor could sue and some insurance policies have a stipulation saying that these companies are not responsible for perished or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s property and your insurance will not pay if they have a stipulation concerning dead or diseased trees. On the other hand if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to protect yourself is to notify them in writing and let them know 99 % of competent tree services will give a free evaluation. 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 do not know of many individuals that like to clean out gutters. We actually could start a gutter cleaning business with the quantity of calls we receive searching for a good cheap gutter cleaner. Everyone wants to have a cheap gutter cleaner but all the inexpensive kind I know aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are worse than not having gutters at all. Congested downspouts cause the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water trapped behind the gutters causes these 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 if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal expert.

Peace of Mind: We often times remove trees because some people lay awake on windy nights because of a particular tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the sole way to make sure a tree does not fall on the house is to take down all large trees inside of close quarters. It can be costly to remove a number of trees near your Slate Hill NY house and often this alleviates the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Commonly fears could be appeased by having a tree service expert evaluate the trees to ensure none of them have any defects that would make them a more than normal threat. If a tree needs to be taken down you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree destroyer. Just simply plant a fresh native tree at a far better location on your estate and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you do not have space 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 every single dollar donated and you can even choose the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a couple planted in a non harvest area within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
