Tree Trimming Process

How We Handle Your Tree Trimming

First, we assess your trees to identify what needs trimming and why. Not every branch that looks problematic actually needs cutting, and we’re not here to oversell you on unnecessary work.

Next, we plan the trimming approach based on tree species, season, and your specific goals. Different trees require different techniques, and timing matters more than most homeowners realize.

Then we execute the trimming using professional equipment and proper safety protocols. We’re talking about certified arborists with the right tools, not weekend warriors with chainsaws. Finally, we handle complete cleanup so you’re left with healthier trees and zero mess to deal with.

When is the best time to trim trees in North Bellmore?

Late fall through early spring works best for most Long Island trees, typically November through March when trees are dormant. This timing reduces stress on the tree and minimizes the risk of disease transmission. However, dead or hazardous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Oak trees specifically should avoid trimming during April through June to prevent oak wilt disease. Each species has slightly different optimal timing, which is why professional assessment matters more than following general rules.
Tree trimming costs depend on tree size, species, accessibility, and complexity of the work needed. Small trees under 25 feet typically run $200-500, medium trees 25-50 feet range $500-1200, and large trees over 50 feet can cost $1200-3000 or more. Emergency work and difficult access situations increase costs. We provide free estimates because every job is different, and phone quotes without seeing the actual trees are usually meaningless. Factors like proximity to power lines, property structures, and tree health all affect final pricing.
Small branches under 2 inches diameter at ground level might be manageable for homeowners with proper tools and knowledge. Anything larger, higher than you can reach from the ground, or near power lines requires professional equipment and expertise. Tree trimming involves understanding tree biology, proper cutting techniques, and serious safety considerations. Improper cuts can damage or kill trees, and accidents happen frequently with DIY tree work. The cost of fixing botched trimming jobs or dealing with injuries usually exceeds professional service costs.
Proper tree trimming significantly reduces storm damage risk by removing dead wood, weak branches, and problematic growth patterns before they become projectiles. However, trimming isn’t a guarantee against all storm damage since severe weather can affect even healthy, well-maintained trees. The key is regular maintenance that keeps trees structurally sound and removes obvious hazards. Over-trimming actually weakens trees and makes them more susceptible to wind damage, which is why professional assessment and proper techniques matter more than aggressive cutting.
Complete cleanup is included in our tree trimming service because leaving debris scattered across your property isn’t professional work. We chip smaller branches, cut larger wood into manageable pieces if you want to keep it for firewood, and haul away everything else. We also clean up any bark, leaves, and sawdust that result from the trimming work. The only exception is if you specifically request to keep certain wood pieces, but we’ll still stack them neatly in your preferred location rather than leaving a mess.
Most mature trees in North Bellmore benefit from professional assessment every 2-3 years, with actual trimming needed every 3-5 years depending on species and growth rate. Fast-growing trees like maples may need more frequent attention, while slower-growing oaks can go longer between services. Young trees require more frequent trimming to establish proper structure. Dead wood removal and hazard assessment should happen annually, especially before storm season. The key is regular professional evaluation rather than waiting until problems become obvious, since prevention costs less than emergency response.
