We Know Long Island Trees

Long Island Best Tree Service has been handling tree problems in Great River and throughout Suffolk County for years. We’re not the guys who show up with a chainsaw and hope for the best.

Our certified arborists understand how coastal weather affects different tree species. We know which trees typically fail during nor’easters and which ones need specific care to thrive in our climate. We’re fully licensed and insured because this work requires real expertise and proper coverage.

When your neighbor recommends us, it’s because we showed up when we said we would, did the work right, and cleaned up completely. That’s how local businesses stay in business around here.

Here's How We Handle Your Trees

First, we come out and assess what you’re dealing with. Our arborist looks at tree health, identifies potential hazards, and explains what needs to happen and why. You get a clear estimate with no surprises.

When we do the work, we bring the right equipment and follow proper safety protocols. We’re not cutting corners or taking risks with your property. Trees come down in controlled sections, branches are cut properly to promote healthy growth, and hazardous situations are handled safely.

After the work is done, we clean up completely. Debris gets removed, your property gets left clean, and you get documentation for insurance purposes if needed. If there’s an emergency situation, we respond quickly because we understand that storm-damaged trees don’t wait for convenient timing.

Complete Tree Care Great River

Everything Your Trees Actually Need

We handle the full range of tree care because trees don’t have just one type of problem. Emergency removal when storms bring trees down on houses or power lines. Regular trimming to keep growth healthy and prevent future issues. Complete removal when trees are diseased, dead, or positioned where they’ll cause problems.

Our arborists diagnose tree health issues before they become expensive emergencies. We understand local soil conditions, common diseases that affect Long Island trees, and how to maintain different species properly. Whether you need routine maintenance or emergency response, we bring the same level of professional expertise.

The work includes complete cleanup because leaving debris scattered around your property isn’t professional service. You get documentation for insurance purposes when needed, and we coordinate with utility companies when power lines are involved.

How quickly can you respond to emergency tree situations?

We prioritize emergency calls, especially when trees threaten homes, power lines, or create immediate safety hazards. During major storms, we typically respond within 24 hours, but we understand that some situations need faster attention. If you have a tree on your house or blocking access to your property, call us immediately. We’ll let you know exactly when we can get there and what to do in the meantime to stay safe. Our emergency response includes proper equipment to handle dangerous situations safely, not just quick fixes that create more problems later.
Trimming usually means cutting branches back for appearance or clearance, while proper pruning focuses on tree health and structure. Our certified arborists prune trees to remove diseased or damaged wood, improve air circulation, and encourage healthy growth patterns. We make cuts at the right locations to help trees heal properly and avoid creating entry points for disease. Improper cutting can actually harm trees and make them more susceptible to storm damage. When we prune your trees, we’re thinking about their long-term health, not just how they look afterward.
Yes, but we coordinate with utility companies when necessary and follow strict safety protocols. Trees near power lines require specialized training and equipment that many tree services don’t have. Our crew is trained to work around electrical hazards and knows when to call PSEG Long Island before starting work. We never take risks with electrical safety because the consequences can be fatal. If your tree is touching or very close to power lines, we’ll assess the situation and determine the safest approach, which might include having the utility company temporarily shut off power during the work.
Our arborists look for several key factors: structural integrity, disease progression, root damage, and location relative to structures. Trees with significant trunk damage, extensive root rot, or diseases that can’t be treated often need removal to prevent them from falling unexpectedly. We also consider whether a tree’s location makes it inherently dangerous, like large trees too close to houses with shallow root systems. Before recommending removal, we explain exactly what we’re seeing and why other treatments won’t work. Sometimes trees can be saved with proper care, but when removal is necessary, we explain the reasoning clearly.
Complete cleanup is included in our service, but you have options for the wood. We can remove everything from your property, or if you want firewood, we can cut logs to size and stack them where you specify. Wood chips from branches can be left for your use as mulch or removed entirely. Large trunk sections can be cut into manageable pieces for removal or left if you have plans for the wood. We don’t just cut trees down and leave you with a mess to deal with. The job isn’t finished until your property is clean and you’re satisfied with how everything looks.
Yes, we maintain all required licenses for tree service work in New York State and carry comprehensive liability insurance plus workers’ compensation coverage. This protects you if something goes wrong during the work and ensures we’re operating legally. Many homeowners don’t realize that hiring uninsured tree services can leave them liable for injuries or property damage. We provide proof of insurance before starting work and can add you as an additional insured party if your insurance company requires it. Our licensing means we stay current with safety regulations and industry standards that protect both our crew and your property.
