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: Sometimes storm damage may just be a broken limb that doesn’t compromise the tree but it is a good idea to have any specific tree that has definitely lost a good sized limb looked at by a tree professional who 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 charge. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals offer free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a property is a total “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade which trees render reduces cooling expenditures in the summer and provides a buffer from the winter wind. Meanwhile the drop in sunlight can contribute to mold and rotten wood causing maintenance expenditures to grow (this is addressed in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees near to houses can also permit unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to get into the attic. A customer of ours had us remove 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 bunch of money having someone else trap and clear away the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| and then needed to re-insulate and rewire the loft. In cases where limbs are effectively touching the house the constant swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or home siding.

Sometimes when a tree is too close to a property we will be able to just trim or prune the tree limbs away from the house but if several limbs need to be cleared away it can cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In that case it may be more suitable to remove the tree and plant another more compact growing tree or simply select a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots will clog up your septic system| or they can crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or building. Since there is no way to prevent this other than tree removal it is always prudent to do 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 home before it reaches maturity leaving the subsequent owner to have to hire a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: Because of their size trees can dominate much smaller plants. Homeowners ought to choose bushes or shrubs that have the ability to tolerate the competition for sunshine and water or they will have to deal with a landscape not performing at it’s full potential. Grass that is not performing well under a tree could be helped by increasing water and fertilizer but some lawns only flourish in full direct sunlight. While it may be more affordable to remove the tree| if you really like the tree you could consult a landscape company about switching to a different type of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the right location can easily boost a homes worth the wrong tree can impact a home’s value. In many cases we can improve the curb appeal of a building in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically removing the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your property from the road. Unfortunately in some cases to enhance the curb appeal we will have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees often 2 things can not occupy the same site. This is the case of a tree and your brand-new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Oftentimes in these scenarios tree removal is the sole option and if you are feeling down about clearing away your beloved tree you can always plant a different one. Even if it may not mature in our life-time our children or somebody else’s children may well appreciate it.

Liability issues: Our people are certainly not lawyer or attorneys however here is insights on how fallen trees are ordinarily interpreted according to the law. Assuming that the tree was not obviously dead or diseased you are not considered to be negligent or to blame for the tree dropping down. You dispose of the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your next-door neighbor is obligated with regard to tree removal and repairs to his premises. You are actually only liable for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or unhealthy the neighbor could sue and several insurance policies have a provision stating that these companies are exempt for perished or diseased trees. If this were to happen you can be held accountable for damage to the neighbor’s residential property and your insurance will not pay if they have a clause about dead or diseased trees. On the flip side if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to safeguard yourself is to advise them in writing and let them know 99 % of professional tree services will give a free assessment. Then if the tree falls on your house you can use the written notification to position the fee of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know of many property owners who like to clean gutters. We literally could start a gutter cleaning company with the quantity of phone calls we get searching for a good cheap gutter cleaning service. Everybody wants a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-cost ones I know typically aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to refer them. Nevertheless clogged gutters are worse than not having gutters at all. Clogged downspouts trigger the water to overflow onto 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. Alternatively clean them yearly right after all the leaves have fallen and in the event that you get fed up with that we are a tree removal specialist.

Peace of Mind: We oftentimes remove trees simply because some people lay awake on windy night-times because of a specific tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their residence. Unfortunately the only way to insure a tree does not fall on the house is to remove all big trees within striking distance. It can possibly be pricey to remove a load of trees near your West Point NY property and often this gets rid of the fear but leaves behind some remorse. Often fears could be soothed by having a tree service expert examine the trees to make sure none of them have any defects that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree requires to be removed you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. 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 do not have space on your property but still want 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 choose the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a few cultivated in a non harvest area within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
