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 Thompson Ridge 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 assessment on the tree to check more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service totally free. Injured trees are more 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 home is a total “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade that trees offer decreases cooling expenditures in the summer season and provides a buffer from the winter wind. Meanwhile the decrease in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance bills to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees next to houses can also allow unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter the attic. A customer of ours had us take down some trees touching on his house due to the fact that a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a lot of money having someone else trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then needed to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In cases where limbs are effectively touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can cause damaged roof shingles or home siding.

Often if a tree is too close to a property we will be able to just trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if several limbs need to be taken off it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more suitable to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or basically find 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 property. Since there is no other 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 house 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 property before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to require to hire a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their overall size trees can overshadow much smaller plants. Property owners should certainly go with bushes or shrubs which are able to tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they will have to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that isn’t really performing well under a tree can be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only prosper in full sunlight. Even though it may be more affordable to remove the tree| if you love the tree you might just speak with a landscape professional about switching to a different type of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the proper location can increase a homes value the inappropriate tree can damage property’s value. Often times we can greatly improve the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is just simply clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your property from the road. However in certain cases to boost the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically two things can not occupy the very same site. Such is the case of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Normally in these situations tree removal is the only option and if you are feeling depressed about getting rid of your favorite tree you can always plant another one. Even though it may not mature in our lifespan our kids or someone else’s kids may take joy in it.

Liability issues: We are certainly not attorneys but this is the way in which falling trees are commonly interpreted based upon the law. In the event that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be negligent or liable for the tree dropping down. You dispose of the portion of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is liable with regard to tree removal and repair works to his property. You are only liable for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the neighbor could sue and a few insurance policies have a stipulation stating that these companies are exempt for deceased or diseased trees. If this were to happen you can 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 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 notice to place the fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know many people that like to clean gutters. We literally could start a gutter cleaning business with the quantity of calls we receive looking for a good inexpensive gutter cleaning service. Everyone would like a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the low-priced ones I know aren’t insured and for that reason I refuse to recommend them. At the same time clogged gutters are worse than not having gutters whatsoever. Congested downspouts trigger the water to overflow onto 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. 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 oftentimes remove trees simply because some people lay awake on windy night-times as a result of a particular tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the sole way to make certain a tree will never fall on the home is to remove all large trees within striking distance. It may be pricey to remove a great deal of trees near your Thompson Ridge NY residence and often this gets rid of the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Commonly fears can be relieved by having a tree service company inspect the trees to make certain none of these have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree has to be removed you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree destroyer. 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 don’t have room on your property but still would like to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for every 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 cultivated in a non harvest place within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
