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 Westtown 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 a good practice to take each and every tree that has recently lost a significant limb surveyed by a tree professional who may 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 charge. Injured trees are more likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant tree removal. We and most true tree service professionals provide free inspections.

Tree outgrows it’s area: Trees close to a home is a total “catch 22” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade which trees offer reduces cooling expenditures in the summer season and provides a buffer against the winter wind. On the other hand the reduction in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing maintenance bills to increase (this is dealt with in more detail in the maintenance part below). Trees near to houses can also make it possible for unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to gain access to the attic. A customer of ours had us remove some trees touching his house because a family of squirrels which had gotten in his attic and tramped down his insulation and chewed electrical wires. He spent a lot of money having someone trap and remove the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then had to re-insulate and rewire the loft. In cases where limbs are effectively in contact with the house the continuous swaying of the trees can result in damaged shingles or siding.

Sometimes when a tree is too near to a house we will be able to simply trim or prune the tree limbs away from your home but if many limbs need to be cleared away 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 consider a more suitable location.

Tree roots cause a problem: Unfortunately tree roots may clog up your septic system| or they might crack your driveway| sidewalk| pool or property. Since there is no alternative way to prevent this other than tree removal it is always advised to do some research or hire a landscape company when deciding on a location for trees around a house or driveway. Often people fail to understand 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 locate a professional tree service to remove the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: As a result of their overall size trees can dominate small plants. Home-owners should choose bushes or shrubs which are able to tolerate the competition for sun light and water or they will have to live with a landscape not performing at it’s best potential. Grass that isn’t performing well beneath a tree can be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some lawns only do well in full sunshine. Although it may be less expensive to remove the tree| if you cherish the tree you could consult a landscape expert about changing to a different type of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the perfect tree in the right location can easily increase a homes value the inappropriate tree can impact property’s value. In many cases we can enhance the curb appeal of a house in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is merely getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your home from the road. However in certain cases to enhance the curb appeal we have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees sometimes 2 things can not really inhabit the same location. This is the scenario of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| driveway| etc. Oftentimes in these situations tree removal is the only option and if you are really feeling depressed about clearing away your favorite tree you can always plant a different one. Even though it may not mature in our lifetime our children or somebody else’s kids may well appreciate it.

Liability issues: are not legal representatives however this is the way falling trees are usually translated based upon the law. Assuming that the tree was not obviously dead or unhealthy you are not deemed to be neglectful or to blame for the tree falling. You remove the chunk of the tree that falls on your property and your neighbor is obligated when it comes to tree removal and repairs to his property. You are actually only liable for your residential property in this instance. If the tree that falls is perished or diseased the neighbor could sue and some insurance policies have a stipulation saying that they 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 stipulation concerning dead or diseased trees. On the flip side if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the very best way to protect yourself is to notify them in writing and let them know 99 % of competent tree services will give a free evaluation. Then if the tree falls on your residence you can use the written notice to position the expense of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I do not know many individuals who like to clean gutters. We really could start a gutter cleaning business with the number of calls we receive searching for a good low-cost gutter cleaner. Everybody would like a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-priced ones I know aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to recommend them. However clogged gutters are more frustrating compared to not having gutters whatsoever. Congested downspouts cause 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. Otherwise clean them yearly shortly after all the leaves have fallen and in the event that you get fed up with that we are a tree removal expert.

Peace of Mind: We frequently remove trees simply because some people lay awake on stormy night-times because of a particular tree or trees that rock in the wind and looms over their house. Unfortunately the only way to guarantee a tree does not fall on the home is to remove all large trees within close quarters. It could be costly to remove a great deal of trees near your Westtown NY residential property and often this eliminates the fear but leaves some regret. Commonly fears could be relieved by having a tree service company assess the trees to ensure none of them have any defects that would make them a more than normal threat. In the event that a tree has to be removed you really don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree monster. Just plant a brand new native tree at a much better location on your estate and you are doing your part to renew the growth cycle. If you don’t have room on your property but still want to make a contribution you can make a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They sow a tree for each dollar donated and you can also choose the location by US State or country. Cut a tree in your yard and have a couple planted in a non harvest area within New York or even opt to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
