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 idea to take every tree that has recently lost a sizable limb checked 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 offer this service free of cost. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always require tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals provide free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a total “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade which trees offer lowers cooling costs in the hot months and provides a buffer from the winter wind. On the other hand the decrease in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance expenses to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees alongside houses can also make it possible for unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A customer 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 bunch of money having someone else trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then afterwards needed to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In scenarios where limbs are actually in contact with the house the continuous swaying of the trees can cause damaged shingles or home siding.

Often if a tree is very close to a home we may just trim or cut back the tree limbs away from your home but if many limbs need to be removed it may 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 make a decision on 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 foundation. Since there is no alternative way to prevent this other than tree removal it is always best to carry out some research or refer to a landscape company when choosing on a location for trees around a building or driveway. Often people fail to anticipate 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 subsequent owner to require to locate a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: As a result of their overall size trees can dominate smaller plants. Property owners should decide on bushes or shrubs which can tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they need to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well beneath a tree could be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only prosper in full sunlight. Whilst it may be cheaper to take out the tree| if you really like the tree you might just seek advice from a landscape professional about changing to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the most appropriate location can improve a property’s market value the inappropriate tree can damage a home’s value. In many cases we can boost 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 your home from the road. However in certain cases to boost the curb appeal we will have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically 2 things can not really inhabit the very same site. Such is the scenario of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Oftentimes in these situations tree removal is the sole option and if you are really feeling down about taking out your beloved tree you can always plant another one. Albeit it doesn’t mature in our lifetime our children or somebody else’s kids can appreciate it.

Liability issues: Our people are certainly not legal representatives but here is the way in which falling trees are typically interpreted based upon the law. Assuming that the tree was not clearly dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be neglectful or liable for the tree dropping down. You remove the section of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is responsible when it comes to tree removal and repairs to his premises. You are only liable for your residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or unhealthy the neighbor could sue and several insurance policies have a provision saying that these companies are exempt for lifeless or diseased trees. If this were to happen you may be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s property and your insurance will not pay if they have a clause concerning dead or diseased trees. On the flip 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 know 99 % of competent tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your residence you can use the written notification to position the fee of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many individuals that like to clean out gutters. We literally could start a gutter maintenance operation with the amount of phone calls we receive looking for a good cheap gutter cleaner. Almost everyone would like a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the cheap ones I know typically aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to recommend them. Having said that clogged gutters are more frustrating than not possessing gutters whatsoever. Clogged up downspouts cause the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water trapped 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. Otherwise 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 frequently remove trees because some people lay awake on windy nights due to a particular tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the only way to insure a tree does not fall on the house is to clear away all large trees inside of close quarters. It can possibly be costly to remove a great deal of trees near your Slate Hill NY property and sometimes this alleviates the fear but leaves some remorse. Typically fears could be appeased by having a tree service expert examine the trees to make sure none of them have any defects that would make them a higher than normal threat. If a tree requires to be removed you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree executioner. Simply plant a new native tree at a far better location on your estate and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you don’t 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 even specify the location by US State or country. Cut a tree in your yard and have a few planted in a non harvest site within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
