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 West Point 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 assessed by a tree professional who should do a risk assessment on the tree to ensure that more limbs aren’t injured and waiting to fall. We offer this service for free. Injured trees are most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always necessitate tree removal. We and almost all true tree service professionals carry out free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a house is a real “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade which trees offer reduces cooling costs in the summer and provides a barrier against the winter wind. Meanwhile the drop in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance costs to grow (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees beside houses can also enable unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A customer of ours had us remove some trees touching on his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He shelled out a lot of money having somebody 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 scenarios where limbs are actually in contact with the house the constant swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or home siding.

Sometimes whenever a tree is too near to a house we can simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if many limbs need to be cleared away it may cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be better to take out the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or just make a decision on a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots may clog up your septic system| or they could crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or building. Since there is no way to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advisable to do some research or refer to a landscape professional when choosing on a location for trees around a home 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 subsequent owner to have to hire a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their proportions trees can overshadow smaller plants. House owners should certainly pick bushes or shrubs that will tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they need to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that is not performing well underneath a tree could be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only do well in full sunlight. Whilst it may be less expensive to take out the tree| if you love the tree you might speak with a landscape company about changing to a different kind of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the proper location may increase a property’s value the inappropriate tree can damage property’s value. Oftentimes we can improve the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is simply getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of the house from the road. Unfortunately at times to enhance the curb appeal we will have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees often two things can not inhabit the same site. This is the scenario of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Normally in these situations tree removal is the sole choice and if you are feeling depressed about removing your best-loved tree you can always plant another one. Even though it will not mature in our life time our children or somebody else’s children can take joy in it.

Liability issues: are certainly not lawyers however this is how fallen trees are ordinarily translated based upon the law. On the assumption that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not considered to be neglectful or at fault for the tree dropping down. You remove the section of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is responsible with respect to tree removal and repair works to his property. You are actually only liable for your residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is dead or diseased the neighbor could sue and a few insurance policies have a stipulation stating that these companies are not responsible for lifeless or unhealthy 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 side if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to safeguard yourself is to notify 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 house you can use the written notification to place the expense of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know many property owners who like to clean out gutters. We actually could start a gutter cleaning business with the amount of telephone calls we get seeking out a good affordable gutter cleaner. Every one wants to have a cheap gutter cleaning service but all the inexpensive ones I know aren’t insured and consequently I refuse to recommend them. At the same time clogged gutters are much worse compared to not having gutters at all. Clogged up 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 put in a gutter cap like http://www.leafguard.com or http://www.gutterguardian.com. Or else 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 as a result of a specific tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their residence. The fact is the only way to make sure a tree doesn’t fall on the home is to take out all large trees within striking distance. It could be costly to remove a load of trees near your West Point NY property and often this alleviates the fear but leaves behind some regret. Commonly fears could be relieved by having a tree service professional inspect the trees to ensure none of them have any flaws that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree requires to be removed you do not need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Just simply plant a brand-new native tree at a far better location on your property and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you do not have room on your property but still want to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They plant a tree for each dollar donated and you can even choose the location by US State or country. Chop down a tree in your yard and have a couple sown in a non harvest place within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
