Tree Maintenance Services

What's Included in Our Service

You get complete tree care from certified arborists who understand Long Island’s growing conditions. Tree removal, trimming, pruning, stump grinding, and emergency storm response are all part of what we do.

We handle the permits when they’re required. We work with your insurance company when storm damage is involved. All debris gets removed and disposed of properly – you won’t find us dumping wood chips in your neighbor’s yard or leaving branches stacked by your curb.

Emergency calls get priority response because we know a tree on your roof or blocking your driveway can’t wait until next week. Our equipment can handle the big jobs safely, and our experience means we can spot potential problems before they become expensive disasters.

How much does tree removal cost in Greenlawn?

Tree removal costs depend on the size, location, and complexity of the job. A small tree in an open area might run $300-600, while a large tree near your house or power lines could be $1,000-3,000 or more. We provide free estimates so you know exactly what you’re looking at before any work begins. The price includes the removal, cleanup, and basic stump grinding. Additional services like extensive stump removal or dealing with particularly challenging access issues may cost extra, but we’ll discuss all of that upfront.

Do you provide emergency tree service during storms?

Yes, we offer 24/7 emergency response for storm damage and dangerous tree situations. If a tree falls on your house, blocks your driveway, or is hanging dangerously after a storm, we prioritize those calls. Emergency service typically costs more than scheduled work due to the urgency and after-hours nature, but we’re upfront about pricing even in emergency situations. We can often provide temporary solutions to make your property safe while scheduling the full cleanup for the next business day if that helps manage costs.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work?

Absolutely. We carry full liability insurance and workers compensation coverage, and our arborists are properly licensed for tree work in New York. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any job – many homeowners need this for their own insurance companies. This isn’t just about meeting legal requirements; it protects you if something goes wrong during the work. Unlicensed tree services might seem cheaper upfront, but they can leave you liable for injuries or property damage that proper insurance would cover.

What's the best time of year for tree trimming?

For most trees on Long Island, late fall through early spring is ideal for major trimming work. Trees are dormant, so they handle the stress better and you’re less likely to interfere with nesting birds. However, dead or dangerous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Some trees, like maples, are best trimmed in late summer to avoid excessive sap bleeding. During our estimate, we’ll recommend the optimal timing for your specific trees and explain why certain work should be done sooner rather than later.

Do you clean up all the debris after tree work?

Complete cleanup is included in our service. We remove all branches, logs, and debris from your property. Wood chips from grinding are typically left on-site unless you specifically request removal, as many homeowners use them for landscaping. If you don’t want the chips, just let us know and we’ll haul them away too. We also rake up smaller debris and leave your property clean. The only thing we don’t typically remove is the actual wood if you want to keep it for firewood, but we’ll stack it neatly wherever you prefer.

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

Dead, diseased, or structurally compromised trees should come down before they fall on their own. Warning signs include large dead branches, fungal growth at the base, significant lean toward structures, or hollow-sounding trunk when tapped. Cracks in the trunk, root damage from construction, or more than 25% of the canopy being dead are also red flags. Sometimes a tree that looks healthy to homeowners is actually dangerous – that’s why we do thorough assessments during our estimates. We’ll never recommend unnecessary removal, but we will be honest about trees that pose real risks to your property or safety.
