How much does tree removal cost in Lake Success?

Tree removal costs vary significantly based on size, location, and complexity. A small tree might cost $300-800, while large mature trees common in Lake Success can range from $1,500-4,000 or more. Trees near power lines, close to structures, or requiring crane access cost more due to the specialized equipment and expertise required. We provide detailed written estimates after assessing your specific situation, so you know exactly what the work will cost before we start.

Do you provide emergency tree service in Lake Success?

Yes, we offer emergency tree services for storm damage, fallen trees, and hazardous situations. We prioritize safety-critical calls and can often respond the same day for emergencies. If a tree has fallen on your house, is blocking your driveway, or poses an immediate safety risk, call us right away. We have the equipment and experience to handle emergency situations safely and efficiently, including working around power lines and damaged structures.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work?

Absolutely. We carry full liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage, and we’re properly licensed for tree care services in New York. Our arborists hold ISA certifications, which means they’ve demonstrated knowledge of proper tree care practices. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any work. This protection is crucial when working with large trees and specialized equipment near your valuable property.

What's the best time of year for tree trimming?

For most trees in the Lake Success area, late fall through early spring is ideal for major pruning work. Trees are dormant, which reduces stress and allows you to see the structure clearly. However, dead or hazardous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Some species have specific timing requirements – for example, oaks should avoid pruning during certain months to prevent disease. Our certified arborists assess each situation and recommend the optimal timing for your specific trees.

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

Several signs indicate a tree may need removal: significant dead or dying branches, trunk damage or decay, root problems, or structural issues that can’t be corrected with pruning. Trees leaning significantly, showing large cavities, or with extensive storm damage often require removal for safety. Sometimes healthy trees need removal due to location – too close to structures, interfering with utilities, or causing foundation issues. Our certified arborists can assess your trees and explain whether removal is necessary or if other treatments might address the problem.

Do you clean up and remove all the debris?

Yes, complete cleanup and debris removal are included in our services. We remove all branches, logs, and wood chips from your property unless you specifically request to keep firewood or mulch. We also rake and clean the work area, protecting your lawn and landscaping during the process. Our crews use tarps and proper techniques to minimize impact on your property. When we’re finished, your landscape should look clean and well-maintained, not like a construction zone.
