When is the best time to trim trees in Port Washington North?

Late fall through early spring is typically ideal for most tree species in our area, when trees are dormant and won’t be stressed by pruning. However, dead or hazardous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Some trees like maples and birches are best pruned in late summer to avoid excessive sap bleeding. We assess each situation individually because timing can vary based on tree species, health, and specific circumstances. Emergency situations obviously can’t wait for perfect timing, and we’re equipped to handle urgent tree trimming safely year-round.
Tree trimming costs depend on tree size, complexity of the job, accessibility, and how much work is needed. Smaller ornamental trees might run a few hundred dollars, while large mature trees requiring extensive work can cost significantly more. We provide free estimates so you know exactly what you’re paying before any work begins. The investment is usually much less than dealing with property damage from falling branches or having to remove a tree that wasn’t properly maintained. We price fairly based on the actual work required, not inflated estimates designed to pad our profits.
Absolutely. Complete cleanup and debris removal is included in our tree trimming service. We haul away all cut branches, twigs, and leaves, leaving your property cleaner than when we arrived. We don’t just pile everything at the curb for you to deal with later. Our crew brings the equipment needed to chip branches on-site when appropriate, or we load everything onto our trucks for proper disposal. You shouldn’t have to spend your weekend cleaning up after tree work, and you won’t have to with our service.
Yes, we carry full licensing and comprehensive insurance coverage for all tree service work in Nassau County and throughout Long Island. This includes liability insurance and workers’ compensation, which protects both you and our crew. Tree work involves significant risks, and proper insurance isn’t optional – it’s essential. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any job. Many homeowners don’t realize that if an uninsured tree service gets hurt on their property, the homeowner can be held liable. Don’t take that risk with cut-rate operators who skip proper coverage.
We can handle trees near power lines, but the approach depends on the specific situation and local utility company requirements. For trees touching or very close to main power lines, we coordinate with PSEG Long Island to ensure safe procedures. Our crew is trained in electrical hazard awareness and uses proper techniques and equipment when working around power lines. However, some situations require utility company involvement or temporary power shutoffs. We assess each case individually and never take unnecessary risks that could cause outages or endanger our crew or your property.
Proper tree trimming actually improves tree health and promotes stronger growth when done correctly by trained arborists. We follow industry standards for pruning cuts, timing, and the amount of canopy that can be safely removed. Poor trimming techniques like topping or over-pruning can severely damage trees, which is why professional expertise matters. Our approach focuses on removing problematic branches while maintaining the tree’s natural structure and health. Well-trimmed trees are more resistant to storm damage, disease, and pest problems. We explain our approach before starting work so you understand how each cut benefits your tree’s long-term health.
