How much does tree removal cost in Locust Valley?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. A small tree in an open area might cost $300-800, while large trees near structures or power lines can range from $1,500-4,000 or more. The best approach is getting an on-site evaluation where our certified arborist can assess your specific situation and provide accurate pricing. Factors like emergency service, stump grinding, and debris removal affect the final cost, but you’ll know everything upfront before work begins.

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

Nassau County and local Locust Valley regulations vary depending on tree size, species, and location on your property. Many areas require permits for trees over a certain diameter or for trees in protected areas. Some homeowner associations also have specific requirements about tree removal. As a licensed tree service, we can help you understand what permits are needed and often assist with the application process. It’s always better to check first rather than face fines or complications later.

How quickly can you respond to emergency tree situations?

Emergency tree situations get priority response, typically within hours during business hours and as quickly as possible during storms or after-hours emergencies. When trees fall on homes, block driveways, or create immediate safety hazards, our focus is on securing the area and preventing further damage. Keep in mind that during major storms affecting Long Island, response times may be longer due to high demand, but dangerous situations always get prioritized over routine removals.

Will tree removal damage my lawn or surrounding plants?

Professional tree removal minimizes damage to your surrounding landscape through careful planning and proper equipment. Our crews use protective mats for heavy equipment, plan debris routes to avoid sensitive areas, and section trees strategically to control where materials fall. Some minor lawn disturbance is normal, especially for large trees, but our experienced crews work to minimize impact. Any unavoidable damage to lawns typically recovers quickly with basic care, and we’ll discuss potential impacts before starting work.

Should I remove a tree that looks healthy but is close to my house?

Trees close to structures need professional evaluation even when they appear healthy. Our certified arborist can assess the tree’s condition, root system, and potential risks based on species, age, and proximity to your home. Some healthy trees pose minimal risk, while others may have hidden issues like root problems or structural weaknesses. The decision should consider factors like the tree’s growth pattern, local weather patterns, and your comfort level with potential risks. Our arborist consultation gives you the information needed to make the right choice.

What happens to the wood and debris after tree removal?

All debris removal is included in our professional tree removal service. Branches and smaller material get chipped and hauled away, while larger trunk sections are typically removed unless you specifically want to keep firewood. We recycle the material through local facilities rather than sending it to landfills. If you want to keep some wood for firewood or other uses, just let our crew know before we start – we can cut sections to your specifications and leave them neatly stacked where you want them.
