There is no doubt, trees add beauty, value, shade, adventure (for tree swings and forts) and more to our properties and landscapes. Especially now as the height of summer approaches here in New Hampshire, Emerald Tree Experts knows the value of having a shade tree to cool our buildings and grounds.
But when a tree grows too close to a building, there can be problems. Because airflow is reduced in the presence of a tree, and because it is cooler and slower to dry, mold, mildew and moss can grow rampant. And this growth can shorten the life of wood and other materials, including shingles. Check out this roof below; it's practically a lawn!

Sometimes it is possible to prune a tree and "lift" its branches up and out of the way of the roof to provide adequate airflow and light. This is the kind of tree service that we specialize in. You can see how substantially we were able to lift the trees away from the house.
But sometimes the tree must be removed in full. Here is the sequence from yesterday that illustrates the process. Lots of careful cutting and lowering on a line, due to the presence of multiple wires and plants below.
