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 Washingtonville 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 idea to have every tree that has recently lost a large limb looked at by a tree professional that should do a risk evaluation on the tree to ensure that more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We provide this service free of cost. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always require tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals make available free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a residence is a real “catch 22” situation. On the one hand the shade which trees offer reduces cooling expenditures in the summer season and provides a barrier from the winter wind. On the other hand the decrease in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance costs to increase (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees next to houses can also allow unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to gain access to the attic. A client of ours had us remove some trees touching on his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had penetrated his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a lot of money having someone 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 in contact with the house the continuous swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or siding.

Often when a tree is too near to a house we will be able to simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if lots of limbs need to be cleared away it may 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 simply settle on 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 stop this other than tree removal it is always advised to do some research or consult a landscape professional when choosing 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 just plan to sell the home 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: A result of their overall size trees can dominate smaller plants. Property owners should certainly select bushes or shrubs that are able to tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they need to live with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t performing well underneath a tree could be helped by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only do well in full sun light. Whilst it may be less costly to take out the tree| if you really like the tree you may consult a landscape professional about switching to a different type of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the most appropriate location can easily increase a homes market value the inappropriate tree can damage property’s value. In many cases we can improve the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. However in certain 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 inhabit the very same spot. Such is the case of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Often in these cases tree removal is the only option and if you are feeling depressed about removing your beloved tree you can always plant a different one. Even if it will not mature in our life-time our children or someone else’s children may appreciate it.

Liability issues: are certainly not attorneys but this is how falling trees are generally interpreted according to the law. Assuming that the tree was not obviously dead or diseased you are not deemed to be negligent or to blame for the tree falling. You remove the section of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is responsible when it comes to tree removal and repair works to his property. You are actually only responsible for your property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or unhealthy the neighbor could file suit and several insurance policies have a provision pointing out that these companies are exempt for perished or diseased trees. If this were to happen you could be held accountable for damages 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 neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to protect yourself is to advise them in writing and let them know 99 % of competent tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your residence you can use the written notification to position the cost of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know many individuals that like to clean out gutters. We actually could start a gutter cleaning business with the number of telephone calls we receive seeking out a good low-cost gutter cleaner. Almost everyone would like a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the inexpensive ones I know typically aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to recommend them. Having said that clogged gutters are much worse than not having gutters whatsoever. Obstructed downspouts cause the water to overflow into the face(fascia) boards and water trapped 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 soon after all the leaves have fallen and if you get fed up with that we are a tree removal expert.

Peace of Mind: We often times remove trees because some people lay awake on blustery night-times because of a certain tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the sole way to insure a tree does not fall on the home is to take out all big trees inside of striking distance. It can possibly be pricey to remove a bunch of trees near your Washingtonville NY property and sometimes this gets rid of the fear but leaves behind some regret. Commonly fears can be calmed by having a tree service company examine 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 cleared away you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Simply plant a brand new native tree at a much 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 would like to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They grow a tree for every dollar donated and you can even specify the location by US State or country. Cut a tree in your yard and have a few sown in a non harvest location within New York and even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
