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: 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 lost a good sized limb inspected by a tree professional that may do a risk assessment 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 most likely to fail/fall but injuries don’t always warrant 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” state of affairs. On the one hand the shade that trees render decreases cooling expenditures in the summer time and provides a buffer from the winter wind. Meanwhile the drop in sunlight can bring about mold and rotten wood causing repair and maintenance costs to grow (this is covered in more detail in the maintenance paragraph below). Trees alongside houses can also enable unwanted pests like squirrels and mice to enter into the attic. A homeowner of ours had us take down some trees touching on his house owing 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 take out the squirrels| repair the holes they chewed in the roof eaves| then needed to re-insulate and re-wire the loft. In situations where limbs are effectively touching the house the continuous swaying of the trees can lead to damaged roof shingles or siding.

Occasionally when a tree is too close to a property we may simply trim or cut back the tree limbs away from the house but if lots of limbs need to be taken off it might cause the tree to no longer be aesthetically pleasing. In which case it may be far better to remove the tree and plant a different more compact growing tree or just consider 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 home. Since there is no other to stop this other than tree removal it is always best 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 envisage the mature growth size of a tree before they plant it or they might plan to sell the building before it reaches maturity leaving the new owner to require to locate a professional tree service to take out the tree.

Impact on surrounding landscape: A result of their overall size trees can overshadow much smaller plants. Home-owners should go with bushes or shrubs which will tolerate the competition for sunshine 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 can be assisted by stepping up water and fertilizer but some grasses only prosper in full sunshine. Whilst it may be more affordable to take out the tree| if you enjoy the tree you might seek advice from a landscape company about switching to a different type of grass to spare the tree.

Impact on home value:  While the best tree in the most appropriate location can boost a homes value the inappropriate tree can damage property’s value. Oftentimes we can boost the curb appeal of a property in the woods by raising the tree canopy which is basically getting rid of the lower limbs which are blocking the view of your house from the road. Unfortunately in some cases to improve the curb appeal we will have to resort to tree removal.

Additions or Renovations: When it comes to trees typically 2 things can not inhabit the very same location. This is the case of a tree and your brand new garage| home expansion| entrance| etc. Normally in these instances tree removal is the sole choice and if you are feeling depressed about clearing away your favorite tree you can always plant a different one. Even if it does not mature in our lifespan our kids or somebody else’s children may well appreciate it.

Liability issues: Our people are not lawyers however this is insights on how fallen trees are ordinarily translated based upon the law. In the case that the tree was not obviously dead or diseased you are not deemed to be negligent or liable for the tree dropping down. 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 only liable for your property in this particular instance. If the tree that falls is dead or diseased the neighbor could sue and several insurance policies have a provision pointing out that they are not responsible for deceased 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 stipulation about dead or diseased trees. On the other hand if you have a neighbor with a dead tree the best way to safeguard yourself is to notify 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 notice to place the cost of removal on your next-door neighbor.

Maintenance: I really don’t know of many individuals that like to clean out gutters. We literally could start a gutter cleaning business with the number of telephone calls we get searching for a good cheap gutter cleaner. Almost everyone wants to have a cheap gutter cleaner but all the low-priced kind I know typically aren’t insured and therefore I refuse to recommend them. Unfortunately clogged gutters are much worse compared to not possessing gutters whatsoever. Obstructed downspouts cause the water to overflow onto the face(fascia) boards and water trapped behind the gutters causes these 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 soon 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 nights as a result of a particular tree or trees that shake in the wind and looms over their residence. Unfortunately the only way to make certain a tree does not fall on the house is to take out all large trees inside of striking distance. It can be costly to remove a bunch of trees near your Westtown NY property and often this gets rid of the fear but leaves some remorse. Often fears could be appeased by having a tree service expert evaluate the trees to make sure none of them have any flaws that would make them a higher than normal threat. In the event that a tree has to be taken down you don’t need to beat yourself up for being a tree killer. Just 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 don’t have space on your property but still wish to make a contribution you can provide a donation to http://www.plantit2020.org They grow a tree for every single dollar donated and you can even choose the location by US State or country. Fell a tree in your yard and have a couple seeded in a non harvest area within New York and even choose to replant rainforests in Africa and Latin America.
