What You Get With Expert Care

Your property stays safe. That overhanging branch isn’t keeping you up at night anymore, and you’re not wondering if the next storm will bring a tree through your roof.

Your trees actually look better and live longer. Proper pruning isn’t just about cutting branches—it’s about understanding how trees grow and what they need to thrive in Long Island’s unique climate.

You save time and avoid the headache of trying to figure this out yourself. No more weekend trips to rent equipment you don’t know how to use, no more guessing about what’s safe to cut and what isn’t.

Tree trimming and pruning to maintain health, improve appearance, and prevent problems before they start. Our certified arborists understand proper pruning techniques that promote growth rather than damage your trees.

How much does tree removal cost in Merrick?

Tree removal costs vary based on the size, location, and complexity of the job. A small tree in an open area might cost a few hundred dollars, while a large tree near power lines or buildings can cost several thousand. We provide free estimates so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins. The price includes safe removal, stump grinding if requested, and complete cleanup of all debris.

Do I need a permit to remove trees on my property?

Merrick and Nassau County have specific regulations about tree removal, especially for larger trees or those in certain locations. Generally, you don’t need a permit for trees under a certain size or for dead/hazardous trees, but protected species or trees in conservation areas may require approval. We’re familiar with local regulations and can help you determine if permits are needed for your specific situation.

When is the best time to trim trees?

The best time for tree trimming depends on the species, but late fall through early spring is generally ideal for most Long Island trees. This dormant season timing reduces stress on the tree and minimizes the risk of disease transmission. However, dead or hazardous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Emergency pruning after storms can’t wait for optimal timing either.

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

Signs that indicate tree removal include significant dead or dying branches, trunk damage, root problems, or lean toward structures. If more than 50% of the tree is damaged, removal is usually the safest option. Trees growing too close to power lines, foundations, or septic systems may also need removal. We can assess your trees and recommend whether removal or treatment is the better choice.

Are you insured for tree work?

Yes, we carry full liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. Tree work involves significant risks to property and people, so proper insurance is essential. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any work. This protects you from liability if someone gets injured or if property damage occurs during the job. Never hire an uninsured tree service company.

Do you provide emergency tree service?

We offer 24/7 emergency tree service for situations that pose immediate danger to people or property. This includes trees that have fallen across roads or driveways, branches on roofs or power lines, or trees threatening to fall. We prioritize emergency calls and typically respond within hours. Emergency service rates may be higher than regular scheduled work, but safety situations can’t wait for normal business hours.
