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 Vails Gate 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: Occasionally storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is a good practice to have any tree that has lost a sizable limb looked over by a tree professional that may do a risk evaluation on the tree to check more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service totally free. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always require tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals carry out free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a residence is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade that trees provide lowers cooling costs in the summer and provides a buffer from the winter wind. On the other hand the reduction in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenses to increase (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees next to houses can also enable unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to penetrate the attic. A homeowner of ours had us take down some trees touching his house owing to a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having somebody trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then afterwards had to re-insulate and rewire the attic. In situations where limbs are actually touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can cause damaged roof shingles or siding.

At times if a tree is very near to a home we can just trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if several limbs need to be taken off it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be more suitable to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or just simply select a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots will clog up your septic system| or they can crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or building. Since there is no alternative way to stop this other than tree removal it is always prudent to do some research or consult with a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a home or driveway. Often people fail to understand 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 new owner to require to pay a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their scale trees can dominate much smaller plants. House owners ought to go for bushes or shrubs which have the ability to tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they need to live with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t performing well beneath a tree could be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only do well in full sun light. Whilst it may be less expensive to remove the tree| if you enjoy the tree you might just speak with a landscape expert about changing to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the appropriate location can certainly increase a property’s worth the wrong tree can hurt property’s value. Often we can greatly improve the curb appeal of a property 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. Having said that at times to boost the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes 2 things can not really inhabit the very same site. Such is the case of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Generally in these circumstances tree removal is the sole option and if you are feeling depressed about taking out your beloved tree you can always plant a different one. Even though it does not mature in our life time our kids or somebody else’s kids can appreciate it.

Liability issues: are certainly not legal representatives but this is the way in which falling trees are typically translated based upon the law. On the assumption that the tree was not obviously dead or diseased you are not deemed to be neglectful or liable for the tree falling. You clear away 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 responsible for your residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the neighbor could file suit and some insurance policies have a provision saying that they are exempt for lifeless or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a clause 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 find out 99 % of competent tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notification to position the fee of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know of many homeowners who like to clean out gutters. We actually could start a gutter maintenance company with the quantity of phone calls we get seeking out a good inexpensive gutter cleaner. Every one wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the inexpensive ones I know typically aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to refer them. Nevertheless clogged gutters are much worse than not possessing gutters at all. 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. Or else 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 times remove trees because some people lay awake on windy night-times because of a specific tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their residence. Unfortunately the only way to make certain a tree does not fall on the home is to take down all large trees within striking distance. It can be expensive to remove a bunch of trees near your Vails Gate NY house and sometimes this alleviates the fear but leaves some remorse. Often fears could be appeased by having a tree service expert evaluate the trees to ensure none of these have any defects that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree needs to be taken down you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Just plant a new native tree at a much 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 want 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 even choose the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a few seeded in a non harvest place within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
