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 Walden 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 have any tree that has lost a pretty big limb surveyed 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 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 perform free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a residence is a total “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade which trees render decreases cooling bills in the summer time and provides a barrier against the winter wind. On the other hand the reduction in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance expenses to grow (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees next to houses can also help unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to penetrate the attic. A client of ours had us take down some trees touching on his house owing to a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having someone trap and take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then needed to re-insulate and rewire the attic. In situations where limbs are actually in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can lead to damaged shingles or home siding.

Often if a tree is very close to a property we will be able to just trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if several limbs need to be removed it could cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more effective 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 can sometimes clog up your septic system| or they might crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or building. Since there is no alternative way to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advised to conduct some research or refer to a landscape company when choosing on a location for trees around a home or driveway. Often people fail to anticipate the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they might plan to sell the property before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to have to pay a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their overall size trees can dominate small plants. Property owners should certainly choose bushes or shrubs that have the ability to tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they have to cope with a landscape not performing at it’s maximum potential. Grass that is not performing well under a tree could be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only flourish in full sunlight. While it may be less expensive to take out the tree| if you enjoy the tree you might speak with a landscape company about changing to a different kind of grass to save the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the right tree in the correct location may improve a homes resale value the inappropriate tree can damage a home’s value. Often we can boost the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is just simply removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Having said that in some cases to improve the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees often two things can not really occupy the same area. This is the case of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| front yard| etc. Normally in these circumstances tree removal is the only option and if you are feeling depressed about extracting your beloved tree you can always plant a different one. Even if it may not mature in our life time our children or someone else’s kids may well take joy in it.

Liability issues: We are certainly not attorneys but this is the way in which falling trees are often 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 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 with regard to tree removal and repair works to his premises. You are only responsible for your residential property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or diseased the neighbor could sue and a few insurance policies have a clause saying that these companies are exempt for perished or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you can be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a clause concerning dead or diseased trees. On the flip side 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 know 99 % of professional tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your home you can use the written notification to place the expense of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know of many people who like to clean out gutters. We actually could start a gutter maintenance operation with the amount of calls we get searching for a good inexpensive gutter cleaning service. Everyone wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-cost kind I know typically aren’t insured and that is why I refuse to refer them. Having said that clogged gutters are worse than not possessing gutters at all. Obstructed downspouts trigger the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water caught 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 remove trees simply because some people lay awake on windy nights due to a particular tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the only way to insure a tree does not fall on the home is to take down all large trees within striking distance. It may be expensive to remove a number of trees near your Walden NY house and often this eliminates the fear but leaves some regret. Typically fears can be appeased by having a tree service company assess the trees to make certain none of these have any defects that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree has to be removed you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Just plant a brand new native tree at a far better location on your estate and you are doing your part to restore the growth cycle. If you don’t have room on your property but still wish to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for every single dollar donated and you can also specify the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a few cultivated in a non harvest area within New York or even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
