Welcome to Tree Cutting & Trimming Patchogue!

Healthy trees are a great addition to your property, and the shade and wind buffering they provide annually reduces energy costs by nearly 2.1 billion dollars. However, if your tree is dead these benefits not only go away, but you could be facing several safety issues in their place. Regardless of how your tree died, getting it removed should be a major priority. If you already use tree pruning services, you may be able to get tree removal through them. If you’re not convinced of the importance of removal, here are five reasons it’s best done sooner rather than later.

Five Reasons to Seek Dead Tree Removal:

• Safety: Possibly the largest reason for dead tree removal is for safety. Dead trees can be a huge safety issue, as they are weakened and more prone to snapping or uprooting during a storm or high winds. Depending on where your tree is located, this could result in damage to your home, your neighbors home, your car, and even to family members. The danger can be made ever worse if your tree is particularly large.

• Steep Costs: While you can find inexpensive tree services, the costs resulting from tree damage won’t be so low. While homeowner’s insurance will cover most damage from trees, if the damage was caused due to negligence, (i.e. failing to remove a structurally weakened tree), you could end up footing the entire repair bill yourself. This even includes damage caused to a neighbors property.

• Pest Infestation: Furthermore, pests such as mosquitoes, wasps, beetles, and fly larvae, love making their homes in dead trees. These insects can further destabilize the wood, but also make their way into your home if you’re not vigilant. To prevent having to deal with an infestation, seek tree removal ASAP.

• Spreading Infection: If your tree died due to disease, tree removal is essential for ensuring that the disease isn’t transferred to neighboring trees. Common signs of infection include a yellowish appearance, spotty leaves, wilting, swelling, and cankers. If you notice any of these signs, have the tree removed to ensure any surrounding trees won’t end up catching the same infection.

• Appearance: While not a safety hazard, dead trees certainly aren’t great to look at and they can drive down your property value. This is especially true if you’re planning to sell your home, as you won’t have to worry about losing money or having to clean up damages should the tree fall during the process.

Be Safe, Not Sorry.

Dead trees can be unpredictable, and all it can take is a strong gust of wind to cause thousands of dollars in damage. If you have a dead tree on your property don’t wait until it’s too late, call a tree removal service today and save yourself time and money in the future.
