Professional tree care means your trees live longer, look better, and cause fewer problems. You avoid the nightmare of emergency removal after storm damage, which always costs more and creates bigger headaches than planned maintenance.

How much does tree removal cost in Moriches?

Tree removal costs depend on the size, location, and complexity of the job. A small tree in an open area might cost a few hundred dollars, while a large tree near power lines or buildings can cost several thousand. We provide free written estimates that break down exactly what’s included. Most homeowners in Moriches pay between $500-$2000 for typical tree removal, but every situation is different. The estimate covers cutting, removal, cleanup, and debris hauling so you know the total cost upfront.

Do I need a permit to remove trees on my property?

In many cases, yes. Moriches and Suffolk County have regulations about tree removal, especially for larger trees or those in protected areas. The rules vary based on tree size, species, and location on your property. We handle the permit process as part of our service because we know the local requirements. It’s always better to check before cutting because fines for unpermitted tree removal can be substantial. We’ll let you know if permits are needed and take care of the paperwork.

When is the best time to trim trees?

For most trees on Long Island, late fall through early spring is ideal for major pruning work. Trees are dormant, so they handle the stress better and you can see the branch structure clearly. However, dead or dangerous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Some trees, like maples, are better pruned in summer to avoid excessive bleeding. Emergency trimming after storms happens when it needs to happen. We can advise on timing based on your specific trees and what work they need.

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

Dead trees should always come down because they’re unpredictable and dangerous. Signs include no leaves in growing season, brittle bark falling off, and visible decay or hollow sections. Trees leaning significantly toward buildings or power lines are usually removal candidates. Large cracks in the trunk, root damage from construction, or severe disease often mean removal is the safest option. If you’re unsure, have a certified arborist assess the tree. It’s better to remove a questionable tree than deal with property damage or injury later.

Can you work around power lines safely?

We can handle trees near power lines, but it requires special training and equipment. Our crew is trained in electrical hazard awareness and follows strict safety protocols. For trees actually touching power lines, we coordinate with PSEG Long Island to ensure power is shut off if necessary. We never take chances with electrical hazards because the consequences are too severe. If a tree is too close to power lines for safe removal, we’ll be honest about it and help you contact the utility company for assistance.

Do you provide emergency tree service?

Yes, we respond to emergency tree situations throughout Moriches and Long Island. Storm damage, fallen trees blocking driveways or roads, and trees threatening to fall on structures are all emergency situations we handle. We prioritize safety first, then getting your property accessible and secure. Emergency work often costs more than planned jobs because it requires immediate response and sometimes night or weekend work. We’ll stabilize the immediate danger first, then discuss options for complete cleanup and removal.
