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 practice to take any specific tree that has likely lost a large limb looked over by a tree professional that should do a risk evaluation on the tree to make sure 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 provide free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a residence is a real “catch 22” scenario. On the one hand the shade that trees render reduces cooling bills in the summer time and provides a barrier against the winter wind. On the other hand the drop in sunlight can add to mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance expenses to grow (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance section below). Trees next to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A client of ours had us remove some trees touching his house thanks to a family of squirrels which had gotten inside his attic and trampled his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a bunch of money having someone trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then afterwards needed to re-insulate and re-wire the attic. In situations where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the continuous swaying of the trees can lead to damaged shingles or siding.

Often when a tree is too near to a house we can just trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if many limbs need to be removed it may cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be more suitable to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or just simply choose a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots may clog up your septic system| or they can crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or home. Since there is no other to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advisable to carry out some research or hire a landscape professional when choosing on a location for trees around a house or driveway. Often people fail to anticipate the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they may plan to sell the house before it reaches maturity leaving the next owner to have to hire a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Due to their overall size trees can overshadow small plants. Homeowners ought to go with bushes or shrubs which will tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they have to tolerate a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t performing well under a tree can be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some grasses only flourish in full sunshine. Even though it may be cheaper to remove the tree| if you cherish the tree you might seek advice from a landscape expert about changing to a different kind of grass to keep the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the most ideal tree in the proper location can certainly boost a property’s worth the inappropriate tree can damage property’s value. Often we can greatly improve the curb appeal of a building 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. However at times to improve the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees at times two things can not really inhabit the same spot. This is the instance of a tree and your new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Usually in these circumstances tree removal is the sole solution and if you are really feeling depressed about clearing away your best-loved tree you can always plant a different one. Albeit it does not mature in our life time our children or somebody else’s children can take joy in it.

Liability issues: Our people are certainly not attorneys but this is how fallen trees are ordinarily interpreted according to the law. In the event that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be neglectful or at fault for the tree dropping down. You clear away the section of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is obligated 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 perished or unhealthy the next-door neighbor could file suit and several insurance policies have a provision stating that they are not responsible for perished or unhealthy trees. If this were to happen you may be held accountable for damages to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a stipulation about dead or diseased trees. On the other side if you have a next-door neighbor with a dead tree the best way to protect yourself is to advise them in writing and let them find out 99 % of professional tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your residence you can use the written notification to place the cost of removal on your neighbor.

Maintenance: I don’t know many individuals who like to clean gutters. We really could start a gutter maintenance company with the amount of telephone calls we receive searching for a good cheap gutter cleaning service. Every one wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-priced ones I know typically aren’t insured and for that reason I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are worse than not having gutters whatsoever. Obstructed downspouts cause the water to overflow into 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. Otherwise 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 because some people lay awake on stormy night-times due to a particular tree or trees that move in the wind and looms over their residence. Unfortunately the sole way to guarantee a tree will never fall on the house is to take down all big trees inside of close quarters. It could be downright costly to remove a number of trees near your West Point NY residential property and sometimes this eliminates the fear but leaves some regret. Commonly fears could be soothed by having a tree service professional assess the trees to make sure none of them have any defects 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 monster. 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 do not have space 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 each dollar donated and you can even specify the location by US State or country. Cut a tree in your yard and have a few seeded in a non harvest location within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
