Professional Tree Care Services

Healthier Trees, Safer Property, Better Views

When your trees are properly trimmed, you get more than just a cleaner look. You get peace of mind knowing dead or weak branches won’t fall on your roof, car, or family during the next storm.

Professional tree trimming also means your trees stay healthier longer. We remove diseased branches before they spread problems to the rest of the tree. We thin crowns to let more light reach your lawn and garden underneath.

You’ll notice the difference immediately – better views from your windows, more natural light in your yard, and trees that look full and balanced instead of wild and overgrown. Your property value stays protected, and your outdoor spaces become more enjoyable to use.

Tree Maintenance and Care

Complete Tree Trimming Services for Every Need

Our tree trimming service covers everything from routine maintenance to emergency storm cleanup. We handle crown thinning to improve light penetration, deadwood removal for safety, and structural pruning to strengthen your trees against future storms.

For Centerport properties, we pay special attention to trees near power lines, structures, and coastal exposure areas. Salt air and strong winds create unique challenges that require experienced judgment about how much to trim and when.

We also provide emergency tree trimming services when storms damage your trees or create immediate safety hazards. Our crew responds quickly to secure your property and remove dangerous branches before they cause more damage.

When is the best time to trim trees in Centerport?

Late fall through early spring is typically the best time for most tree trimming in our area. Trees are dormant, so they handle the stress better and heal faster. You can also see the tree’s structure more clearly without leaves in the way. However, dead or dangerous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Emergency situations don’t wait for the perfect timing, and safety always comes first.
Tree trimming costs depend on the size of your trees, how much work they need, and accessibility around your property. Small trees might cost a few hundred dollars, while large mature trees requiring extensive work can cost significantly more. We provide detailed written estimates that break down exactly what work we’re doing and why. This way you understand what you’re paying for and can make informed decisions about your tree care.
Proper professional trimming actually promotes healthier, more controlled growth. When we remove dead, diseased, or crossing branches, the tree can put its energy into developing stronger, better-positioned branches. However, improper trimming like “topping” can cause weak, rapid regrowth that’s more dangerous than the original branches. That’s why working with certified arborists matters – we know how to trim trees in ways that improve their long-term health and structure.
Yes, complete cleanup is included in our tree trimming service. We remove all cut branches, twigs, and leaves from your property. Larger wood can be cut into firewood lengths and left for you if you want it, or we’ll haul everything away. We also rake up smaller debris and leave your yard cleaner than we found it. The only sign we were there should be your nicely trimmed trees.
Absolutely. We at Long Island Best Tree Service carry full liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. We’re licensed to perform tree work in New York State, and our arborists maintain current certifications. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any work on your property. This protects you from liability if someone gets hurt or if property gets damaged during the job. Never hire tree services that can’t prove they’re properly licensed and insured.
We can safely trim trees near power lines, but the approach depends on the specific situation. For trees touching or very close to active power lines, we coordinate with PSEG Long Island to ensure safe procedures. Our crew is trained in electrical hazard awareness and uses proper techniques when working around power infrastructure. In some cases, the utility company may need to temporarily shut off power or handle the work themselves. We’ll assess your situation and recommend the safest approach for your specific trees and power line configuration.
