Emergency tree service means we respond quickly when storms damage trees or when trees pose immediate safety threats. We work with your insurance company and can provide documentation needed for claims. Our equipment includes everything needed for safe removal, including cranes for trees near structures.

How much does tree removal cost in Baxter Estates?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. Small trees under 30 feet typically range from $300-800, while large trees over 60 feet can cost $1,500-3,000 or more. Trees near power lines, buildings, or in tight spaces cost more due to the additional safety measures and equipment required. We provide free estimates that include all costs upfront – removal, cleanup, and disposal. Emergency storm damage removal may have different pricing due to urgency and after-hours work. The best way to get an accurate price is to have us assess your specific tree and situation.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Baxter Estates?

Permit requirements vary depending on the tree’s size, species, and location on your property. Generally, trees over a certain diameter or protected species may require permits from the village. Dead, diseased, or storm-damaged trees that pose safety hazards often qualify for emergency removal without permits. We’re familiar with local regulations and can help you determine if permits are needed for your specific situation. If permits are required, we can guide you through the application process. For emergency situations where trees threaten safety or property, removal can often proceed immediately with permits obtained afterward.

How long does tree removal take?

Most residential tree removals take 2-6 hours depending on the tree’s size and location. Small trees in open areas can be removed in 1-2 hours, while large trees near structures may take a full day. Complex removals requiring crane work or piece-by-piece dismantling take longer but ensure safety and property protection. Weather conditions can affect timing – we won’t work in unsafe conditions. Emergency storm damage removals are prioritized and scheduled as quickly as possible, often within 24 hours. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during our initial assessment so you can plan accordingly.

Will tree removal damage my lawn or landscaping?

Professional tree removal minimizes damage to your property through careful planning and protective measures. We use protective mats under heavy equipment, plan drop zones carefully, and remove trees in sections when necessary to avoid impact damage. Some minor lawn disruption is normal, especially for large trees or when equipment needs access, but we work to minimize this impact. We can often restore any lawn damage as part of our service. The alternative – leaving a dangerous tree that could fall naturally – typically causes much more extensive damage. Our goal is removing your problem tree while preserving everything else you value about your property.

What happens to the wood after tree removal?

We handle all debris removal as part of our standard service. Large trunk sections can be cut into firewood lengths and left for your use if you want them. Branches and smaller debris are chipped and can be left as mulch for your landscaping or completely removed from your property. Many customers appreciate getting free wood chips for their gardens. If you don’t want any of the wood or chips, we haul everything away and dispose of it properly. We never just leave debris scattered around your property – complete cleanup is included in every tree removal job.

Can you remove trees near power lines safely?

Trees near power lines require special safety protocols and coordination with utility companies. For trees touching or very close to power lines, the utility company typically needs to disconnect power temporarily during removal. We coordinate this process and work with PSEG Long Island when necessary. Our crews are trained in electrical hazard awareness and use proper techniques for working near power infrastructure. We never attempt to remove trees from power lines ourselves – that’s utility company work. However, we can safely remove trees that are close to but not touching lines using specialized techniques and equipment designed for these situations.
