How quickly can you respond to emergency tree situations?

Emergency response depends on the severity of the situation and current weather conditions. For trees blocking driveways, threatening power lines, or creating immediate safety hazards, we prioritize these calls and typically respond the same day when conditions allow safe work. During major storm events, we work through a queue of emergency calls, handling the most dangerous situations first. Non-emergency situations like routine trimming or dead tree removal are usually scheduled within a few days to a week depending on the season.

What's the difference between tree trimming and tree pruning?

Tree trimming typically refers to cutting back overgrown branches for aesthetic purposes or to clear power lines and structures. Tree pruning is more precise—it involves selective removal of specific branches to improve tree health, remove dead or diseased wood, and promote proper growth patterns. Certified arborists use pruning techniques that consider the tree’s natural growth habits and long-term health. Proper pruning cuts heal correctly and don’t leave the tree vulnerable to disease or pest problems like improper trimming can.

Do you handle stump removal after cutting down trees?

Yes, we provide complete stump grinding and removal services. After tree removal, stumps are ground down below ground level, typically 6-8 inches deep, which allows for new grass to be planted over the area. The wood chips from grinding can be left for you to use as mulch or hauled away—your choice. Stump grinding eliminates tripping hazards, prevents pest problems, and opens up usable yard space. The process is much less invasive than stump pulling, which can damage surrounding landscaping and underground utilities.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work in Nassau County?

We carry full licensing and comprehensive insurance coverage for all tree care operations in Nassau County and Bellmore. This includes general liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage, which protects both our crew and your property during tree work. Tree service is inherently risky work involving heavy equipment, climbing, and large falling objects—proper insurance coverage is essential, not optional. We can provide proof of insurance before any work begins, and all crew members are trained in safety protocols for tree care operations.

What time of year is best for tree trimming and maintenance?

Late fall through early spring is generally the best time for most tree trimming in the Long Island area, when trees are dormant and won’t be stressed by pruning cuts. However, dead, diseased, or hazardous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Some trees have specific timing requirements—for example, oak trees are best pruned in winter to avoid oak wilt disease. Emergency situations like storm damage obviously can’t wait for ideal timing. A certified arborist can evaluate your specific trees and recommend the best timing for maintenance based on species, health, and your goals for the work.

How do you determine if a tree needs to be removed versus trimmed?

Several factors determine whether a tree should be removed or can be saved through proper trimming. Dead or dying trees with extensive decay, trees with major structural damage, or trees planted in inappropriate locations often need removal. Trees with limited dead wood, overgrowth issues, or minor structural problems can usually be saved through proper pruning and care. The tree’s species, age, overall health, proximity to structures, and your long-term goals all factor into the decision. A certified arborist evaluates the tree’s condition and explains your options, including the costs and benefits of removal versus maintenance over time.
