What Proper Tree Care Gets You

You get trees that enhance your property instead of threatening it. When storms hit Long Island, you’re not lying awake wondering if that oak is going to come through your roof.

Your landscape looks intentional and well-maintained. Trees grow healthier and live longer when they’re properly pruned and maintained by people who understand how they actually work.

You avoid those emergency calls that cost three times what preventive care would have. Most tree problems give you warning signs if you know what to look for – and we do.

Hewlett Harbor Tree Service Experts

We Know Long Island Trees

Long Island Best Tree Service has been working with Nassau County properties for years. We understand how salt air affects your trees differently than inland areas, and we know which species thrive here and which ones struggle.

Our crew is licensed, insured, and equipped to handle everything from routine maintenance to storm cleanup. We’re not the guys who show up at your door after a hurricane – we’re the ones you call before the storm season starts.

You’ll work with certified arborists who can tell the difference between a tree that needs removal and one that just needs proper care.

Here's How We Handle Your Trees

We start with an honest assessment of what you’re dealing with. Not every tree problem requires removal, and we’ll tell you when pruning or treatment makes more sense than cutting it down.

Our crew shows up on time with professional equipment. We handle the work safely, clean up completely, and leave your property in better shape than we found it. You’re not dealing with branches in your driveway or wood chips scattered across your lawn.

Everything Your Trees Actually Need

You get comprehensive tree care that covers pruning, removal, emergency response, and ongoing maintenance. We handle hazardous trees that pose real risks to your property, not just the ones that look scary.

Our arborists understand the specific challenges trees face in Hewlett Harbor – from coastal weather to the soil conditions that affect root health. This isn’t generic tree service; it’s care designed for Long Island properties.

Emergency response means we’re available when storms hit and trees come down. But we’d rather help you identify and address problems before they become emergencies that cost you thousands in property damage.

How do I know if a tree actually needs to be removed?

Look for obvious signs like large dead branches, hollow sections in the trunk, or trees leaning toward your house or power lines. But honestly, most homeowners can’t assess structural integrity from the ground. We check for root damage, internal decay, and other issues that aren’t visible to untrained eyes. Many trees that look dangerous just need proper pruning, while some that look fine are actually compromised. A professional assessment costs much less than the property damage from a tree that fails when you’re not expecting it.

What's the difference between tree trimming and pruning?

Trimming is basically cutting branches to make a tree look neat. Pruning is strategic removal of specific branches to improve the tree’s health, structure, and safety. Real pruning considers how the tree will respond to each cut – where new growth will emerge, how weight distribution changes, and what the tree will look like in five years. Most landscape crews trim. Certified arborists prune. The difference shows up in how long your trees live and how well they handle storms and stress.

How much does professional tree service typically cost?

Tree work pricing depends on size, location, complexity, and what equipment is needed. Simple pruning might run a few hundred dollars, while removing a large tree near your house could cost several thousand. Emergency work always costs more than scheduled maintenance. The real cost comparison isn’t between different tree companies – it’s between preventive care and emergency repairs after a tree damages your property. Most homeowner’s insurance covers storm damage, but it doesn’t cover removal of trees that were obviously hazardous before they fell.

When is the best time to prune trees?

Most trees benefit from pruning during dormant season – late fall through early spring before buds break. But timing depends on the species and what you’re trying to accomplish. Oak trees shouldn’t be pruned during growing season because of disease risk. Flowering trees have different timing if you want to preserve blooms. Emergency pruning happens when it needs to happen, regardless of season. Dead, damaged, or hazardous branches should be removed immediately. The worst time to prune is when you finally notice the tree needs attention – plan ahead.

Do you handle emergency tree situations after storms?

Yes, we respond to storm damage and emergency tree situations. When trees come down on houses, block driveways, or create immediate safety hazards, we prioritize those calls. But understand that emergency response costs more than scheduled work, and everyone needs help at the same time after major storms. The smart approach is identifying and addressing potential problems before storm season. We can spot trees that are likely to fail and either remove them or reduce their risk through proper pruning and cabling when necessary.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work?

Absolutely. We carry full liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. Tree work is inherently dangerous – for the workers and for your property. Uninsured contractors put you at serious financial risk if someone gets hurt or if we damage your house, cars, or neighbor’s property. Always verify insurance before letting anyone work on your trees. We provide proof of coverage upfront because we understand you need that protection. Licensed, insured tree companies cost more than guys with chainsaws, but we cost much less than the lawsuits and property damage that happen when unqualified people attempt tree work.
