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: Once in a while 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 substantial limb looked at by a tree professional that should do a risk evaluation on the tree to make sure 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 necessitate tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals make available 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 that trees provide decreases cooling expenditures in the summer months and provides a barrier against the winter wind. Meanwhile the decrease in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance bills to increase (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees beside houses can also make it possible for unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter 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 clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then afterwards needed to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In cases where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the continuous swaying of the trees can lead to damaged roof shingles or siding.

At times when a tree is too near to a property we will be able to simply trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if a lot of limbs need to be taken off it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more effective to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or 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 can crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or foundation. Since there is no other to prevent this other than tree removal it is always prudent to carry out some research or refer to a landscape company when deciding on a location for trees around a property or driveway. Often people fail to envisage 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 find a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Thanks to their overall size trees can overshadow smaller plants. Home-owners should certainly choose bushes or shrubs which will tolerate the competition for direct sunlight and water or they have to cope with 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 flourish in full sunshine. Even though it may be less costly to remove the tree| if you cherish the tree you might seek advice from a landscape company about changing to a different sort of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the most appropriate location can improve a homes market value the wrong tree can impact a home’s value. Often we can enhance the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your property from the road. Unfortunately in some cases to boost the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes two things can not really occupy the same spot. Such is the scenario of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Usually in these cases tree removal is the sole solution and if you are feeling depressed about removing your beloved tree you can always plant a different one. Albeit it will not mature in our life-time our children or someone else’s kids can take joy in it.

Liability issues: are not legal representatives however this is the way falling trees are usually translated based upon the law. In the event that the tree was not obviously dead or diseased you are not deemed to be neglectful or at fault for the tree falling. You remove the part of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is responsible for tree removal and repairs to his premises. You are actually only liable for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the neighbor could file suit and several insurance policies have a provision pointing out that they are exempt for deceased 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 stipulation about dead or diseased trees. On the other hand if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the best way to protect 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 place the expense of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know of many homeowners who like to clean out gutters. We really could start a gutter maintenance company with the quantity of phone calls we get searching for a good cheap gutter cleaner. Everyone wants a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the low-priced ones I know aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to recommend them. However clogged gutters are worse compared to not having gutters at all. Congested downspouts trigger the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water trapped 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. 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 remove trees simply because some people lay awake on blustery night-times because of a specific tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their property. The fact is the sole way to insure a tree will never fall on the house is to take down all big trees within striking distance. It could be expensive to remove a number of trees near your Slate Hill NY house and sometimes this alleviates the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Commonly fears can be calmed by having a tree service expert 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 has to be cleared away you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree destroyer. Just simply plant a new native tree at a more desirable location on your property and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you don’t have room on your property but still would like to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They grow a tree for every dollar donated and you can even choose the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a few sown in a non harvest place within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
