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: Once in a while storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is still a good idea to take any specific tree that has definitely lost a pretty big limb examined by a tree professional that may do a risk assessment on the tree to check more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service totally 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 make available free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a total “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade that trees render lowers cooling expenditures in the summertime and provides a barrier from the winter wind. On the other hand the reduction in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance bills to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees beside 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 thanks to a family of squirrels which had penetrated his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having someone else trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then had to re-insulate and rewire the loft. In cases where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the continuous swaying of the trees can cause damaged shingles or siding.

Often whenever a tree is very close to a house we can just trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if many limbs need to be taken off it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be better to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or just simply choose a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots will clog up your septic system| or they might crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or building. Since there is no other to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advisable to conduct some research or consult a landscape company when choosing on a location for trees around a house or driveway. Often people fail to comprehend the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they might plan to sell the home before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to have to find a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their overall size trees can dominate much smaller plants. House owners should certainly go for bushes or shrubs that are able to tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they need to cope with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that is not performing well underneath a tree can be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only do well in full sunshine. Even though it may be cheaper to remove the tree| if you love the tree you could speak with a landscape company about changing to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the appropriate location can easily increase a homes resale value the inappropriate tree can hurt property’s value. Oftentimes we can boost 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 property from the road. Having said that in some cases to boost the curb appeal we will have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees often two things can not inhabit the same area. Such is the case of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Often in these situations tree removal is the sole choice and if you are really feeling down about extracting your favorite tree you can always plant a different one. Even if it doesn’t mature in our life time our kids or somebody else’s children may appreciate it.

Liability issues: Our people are not legal representatives however here is how falling trees are often translated according to the law. On the assumption that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be negligent or to blame for the tree dropping down. You clear away the portion of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is liable 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 next-door neighbor could sue and several insurance policies have a clause stating that they are exempt for lifeless or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you can 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 other side if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the best way to safeguard yourself is to advise them in writing and let them find out 99 % of professional tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your residence you can use the written notice to place the cost of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many individuals that like to clean gutters. We actually could start a gutter maintenance business with the quantity of phone calls we receive searching for a good inexpensive gutter cleaning service. Everybody wants to have a cheap gutter cleaner but all the cheap kind I know aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to recommend them. Having said that clogged gutters are worse compared to not possessing gutters at all. Blocked downspouts cause the water to overflow onto 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 after all the leaves have fallen and if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal specialist.

Peace of Mind: We often remove trees simply because some people lay awake on blustery 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 will never fall on the home is to take out all big trees within striking distance. It could be downright costly to remove a bunch of trees near your Thompson Ridge NY property and often this alleviates the fear but leaves some regret. Commonly fears could be relieved by having a tree service company inspect the trees to ensure none of them have any defects that would make them a more 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. Just plant a brand-new native tree at a better location on your property and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you do not have room on your property but still would like to make a contribution you can provide 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. Fell a tree in your yard and have a couple sown in a non harvest area within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
