Tree Removal Process Islip Terrace

How We Remove Trees Without Drama

First, our arborist assesses the tree and surrounding area. We identify potential hazards like power lines, structures, and other trees. This determines our removal strategy and equipment needs.

Next, we set up safety barriers and position our equipment. For large trees, we remove branches in sections starting from the top. This controlled approach prevents damage to your property and landscaping.

Finally, we cut the trunk in manageable sections and grind the stump below ground level. Our crew removes all debris, rakes the area clean, and leaves your property better than we found it. Most jobs are completed in one day.

How much does tree removal cost in Islip Terrace?

Tree removal costs depend on size, location, and complexity. Small trees under 30 feet typically cost $300-800. Medium trees 30-60 feet range from $800-1,500. Large trees over 60 feet or those near structures can cost $1,500-3,000+. We provide free estimates that include everything – cutting, stump grinding, and complete cleanup. Emergency removals may have additional charges for after-hours service, but we’re always upfront about pricing before starting work.
Islip Terrace has specific tree removal regulations, especially for larger trees or those in protected areas. Generally, you need permits for healthy trees over certain sizes, but dead or hazardous trees can often be removed without permits. We help determine if permits are required and can assist with the application process. Our experience with local regulations saves you time and ensures compliance. Don’t risk fines or having to replant – let us handle the permit research for your specific situation.
Most residential tree removals take 2-6 hours depending on size and complexity. Small trees can be removed in under two hours. Large trees near structures may take a full day for safe sectional removal. Emergency removals blocking access get priority and are typically cleared within hours of your call. Weather conditions and equipment access affect timing. We provide realistic timeframes during your estimate and keep you updated if conditions change. Our goal is completing the job safely and efficiently without rushing.
Professional tree removal minimizes landscape damage through careful planning and proper equipment. We use protective mats under heavy equipment and plan debris drop zones away from sensitive plants. Some minor lawn damage is possible with large tree removals, but we repair any ruts or compacted areas before leaving. We work around existing landscaping whenever possible. If you have prize plants or delicate areas, point them out during the estimate so we can plan accordingly. Most customers are surprised how clean the site looks after removal.
Complete debris removal is included in every tree removal. We chip branches on-site and haul away all wood and debris. If you want to keep firewood, let us know during scheduling and we’ll cut logs to your preferred length. Wood chips can be left for your use as mulch if desired. Large logs from valuable species may be sold to lumber mills, but removal and cleanup remain our responsibility. We don’t leave you with piles of brush or expect you to handle disposal – that’s part of the service you’re paying for.
Trees near power lines require special protocols and coordination with utility companies. For trees touching or very close to power lines, we work directly with PSEG Long Island to ensure safe removal. Our arborists are trained in electrical hazard awareness and use proper techniques around energized lines. We never attempt removal of trees in contact with power lines without utility company involvement. If your tree threatens power lines, call us immediately – we’ll coordinate with the utility company and handle the removal safely. Don’t attempt this yourself under any circumstances.
