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 still a good practice to have any specific tree that has definitely lost a sizable limb checked out by a tree professional that may do a risk assessment on the tree to verify 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 necessitate tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals perform free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a home is a total “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade which trees render decreases cooling bills in the summer and provides a barrier against the winter wind. Meanwhile the decrease in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance costs to increase (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees near to houses can also help unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to gain access to 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 tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a bunch of money having somebody trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and afterwards needed to re-insulate and rewire the loft. In situations where limbs are actually touching the house the continuous swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or home siding.

Sometimes whenever a tree is too near to a home we may simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from your home but if lots of limbs need to be taken off it may cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be more effective to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or basically decide on 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 foundation. Since there is no way to stop this other than tree removal it is always prudent to carry out some research or refer to a landscape professional when deciding on a location for trees around a property 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 house before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to have 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. Homeowners should certainly go for bushes or shrubs which can tolerate the competition for sunlight and water or they need to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t performing well under a tree can be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only do well in full direct sunlight. Although it may be cheaper to take out the tree| if you really love the tree you might seek advice from a landscape company about switching to a different kind of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the proper location can easily increase a property’s market value the wrong tree can hurt a home’s value. Oftentimes we can enhance the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is merely clearing away the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. However at times to enhance the curb appeal we have to turn to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes 2 things can not really occupy the very same spot. This is the scenario of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Generally in these scenarios tree removal is the sole option and if you are really feeling down about getting rid of your favorite tree you can always plant another one. Even if it may not mature in our lifespan our children or someone else’s kids can appreciate it.

Liability issues: are not lawyers however here is the way in which falling trees are usually interpreted based upon the law. If the tree was not clearly dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be neglectful or at fault for the tree falling. You dispose of the portion 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 property. You are only liable for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the next-door neighbor could file suit and several insurance policies have a provision pointing out that these companies are not responsible for dead or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damage 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 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 home you can use the written notice to position the expense of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know of many individuals who like to clean gutters. We literally could start a gutter maintenance business with the number of telephone calls we receive trying to find a good low-cost gutter cleaner. Everyone wants a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the inexpensive ones I know aren’t insured and for that reason I refuse to recommend them. Having said that clogged gutters are worse than not possessing gutters whatsoever. Congested downspouts trigger the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water caught behind the gutters causes these 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 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 frequently remove trees because some people lay awake on blustery nights due to a certain tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over the house. Unfortunately the only way to make certain a tree will never fall on the home is to clear away all big trees inside of striking distance. It can possibly be downright costly to remove a bunch of trees near your Vails Gate NY residential property and sometimes this gets rid of the fear but leaves some remorse. Often fears can be calmed by having a tree service expert inspect the trees to make sure none of these have any defects 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 executioner. Just simply 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 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 sow a tree for each 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 seeded in a non harvest area within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
