Tree Service Process Cold Spring Harbor

Here's Exactly What Happens When You Call

First, we come out to look at what you’re dealing with. We’ll assess the trees, identify any safety concerns, and give you a clear explanation of what needs to be done and why. No surprises, no upselling on work you don’t need.

Once you approve the work, we show up with the right equipment and get started. We use proper climbing techniques and professional-grade tools to remove branches or entire trees safely. If we’re working near your house, power lines, or other structures, we take extra precautions to protect your property.

When the cutting’s done, we clean up completely. That means hauling away all the debris, raking up the smaller pieces, and leaving your property cleaner than we found it. You shouldn’t have to spend your weekend cleaning up after tree work.

How much does tree removal cost in Cold Spring Harbor?

Tree removal costs depend on the size of the tree, its location, and how complex the job is. A small tree in an open area might cost a few hundred dollars, while a large tree near power lines or structures can cost several thousand. We provide free estimates so you know exactly what you’re paying before we start. The price includes complete removal of the tree, cutting it into manageable pieces, and hauling away all debris. Most homeowners find that professional removal is worth the cost compared to the risk and hassle of trying to do it themselves.

Do you provide emergency tree service after storms?

Yes, we respond to emergency calls when storms damage trees in Cold Spring Harbor. We understand that fallen trees and hanging branches create immediate safety hazards that can’t wait until Monday morning. We prioritize calls where trees are blocking driveways, threatening structures, or creating dangerous conditions. Emergency work focuses on making the situation safe first – we’ll remove the immediate hazard and can return later to complete cleanup and any additional work needed. Keep in mind that emergency rates apply for after-hours and weekend calls.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work?

Absolutely. We carry full liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage, and our arborists are properly licensed for tree care work. This protects you if something goes wrong during the job – whether that’s property damage or worker injury. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any work, and many homeowners ask their insurance companies about coverage for tree work. Never hire tree services that can’t show you current insurance certificates. The savings isn’t worth the risk if something goes wrong on your property.

How do I know if a tree needs to be removed?

Dead trees obviously need to come down, but there are other warning signs to watch for. Large dead branches, cracks in the trunk, fungus growing at the base, or trees leaning significantly after storms are all red flags. If branches are hanging over your house, power lines, or areas where people walk, they pose a safety risk even if the tree is healthy. Sometimes healthy trees need removal if they’re too close to structures or interfering with power lines. Our arborists can assess your trees and explain which ones are hazardous and which ones just need trimming or treatment.

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

Most people use these terms interchangeably, but there are some differences. Pruning typically refers to selective removal of branches to improve tree health, structure, or appearance. Trimming often means cutting back overgrown branches for safety or clearance reasons. Both require understanding how trees respond to cuts and which branches to remove without damaging the tree. Poor cutting techniques can actually harm trees and make them more susceptible to disease or storm damage. That’s why it’s important to work with arborists who understand proper cutting methods, not just anyone with a chainsaw.

Do you clean up all the debris after tree work?

Yes, complete cleanup is included in our tree services. We haul away all branches, logs, and debris from the job site. We also rake up smaller pieces and sawdust so your property looks clean when we’re finished. The only thing we typically leave behind is sawdust and small wood chips, which actually make good mulch for your other plants. If you want the wood for firewood, we can cut it to length and stack it for you instead of hauling it away. Just let us know what you prefer when we’re planning the work.
