When is the best time to trim trees in Long Island?

Late fall through early spring is typically the best time for most tree trimming in Long Island. Trees are dormant during this period, which reduces stress and allows for better healing. However, dead or hazardous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Emergency situations like storm damage obviously can’t wait for ideal timing. Our arborists can evaluate your specific trees and recommend the best timing based on species, health, and your particular concerns.
Tree trimming costs depend on the size of your trees, how much work is needed, 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 free estimates so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins. The investment is usually much less than dealing with property damage from falling branches or emergency tree removal after a storm hits.
Small branches you can reach safely from the ground are generally fine for homeowners to handle. Anything requiring a ladder, chainsaw, or near power lines should be left to certified arborists. Improper cuts can damage tree health, and working around large branches is genuinely dangerous. Professional tree trimming also ensures cuts are made correctly to promote healing rather than creating entry points for disease or pests that could kill your trees.
Proper tree trimming performed by certified arborists actually improves tree health and longevity. We follow industry standards for where and how to make cuts, ensuring trees heal properly. However, excessive trimming or incorrect techniques can definitely harm trees. That’s why professional expertise matters. We never remove more than 25% of a tree’s canopy in a single season, and we make cuts at the right locations to promote strong, healthy growth rather than weak regrowth that creates future problems.
Yes, we respond to emergency tree situations throughout South Farmingdale and surrounding Long Island areas.

Emergency tree removal and storm cleanup can’t wait for regular business hours. We have the equipment and experience to safely handle dangerous tree situations that homeowners shouldn’t attempt to address themselves.
