Everything Your Trees Need

Our tree trimming and pruning services focus on health, safety, and aesthetics. Proper cuts promote healing and prevent disease while improving the tree’s structure and appearance.

Emergency tree service responds to storm damage, fallen trees, and hazardous situations. We understand that these situations require immediate attention and can work with your insurance company when needed.

Tree removal handles everything from small ornamental trees to large mature specimens. Stump grinding eliminates trip hazards and allows you to replant or use the space for other purposes. Disease treatment and preventive care help existing trees stay healthy and strong.

How much does tree removal cost in Oyster Bay Cove?

Tree removal costs vary significantly based on size, location, and complexity. A small ornamental tree might cost $300-600, while large mature trees near structures can range from $1,500-4,000 or more. Factors include tree height, trunk diameter, proximity to buildings or power lines, and site access. Emergency removals typically cost more due to urgency and safety considerations. The best approach is getting a written estimate from a certified arborist who can assess your specific situation and provide accurate pricing.

When is the best time to trim trees?

Most trees benefit from pruning during their dormant season, typically late fall through early spring before new growth begins. However, timing depends on the tree species and your goals. Dead, diseased, or hazardous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Some trees like maples and birches bleed sap heavily if pruned in late winter, so early summer pruning works better. Fruit trees have specific timing requirements for optimal production. A certified arborist can recommend the best timing for your specific trees and situation.

Do you handle emergency tree situations?

Yes, we provide emergency tree service for storm damage, fallen trees, and hazardous situations that pose immediate safety risks. Common emergencies include trees fallen across driveways or onto homes, large branches hanging dangerously after storms, and trees leaning against power lines. Response time depends on weather conditions and demand, but safety hazards receive priority scheduling. For insurance claims, we provide documentation and photos to help with your claim process. Keep in mind that emergency services typically cost more than routine work.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work?

Yes, Green Light Tree Services maintains full licensing and comprehensive insurance coverage including general liability and workers’ compensation. Tree work involves significant risks to people and property, so proper insurance protection is essential for both our crew and your property. We can provide certificates of insurance upon request, and coverage details are available before work begins. Never hire uninsured tree services – you could be liable for injuries or property damage if something goes wrong during the job.

What happens to the wood and debris?

Complete cleanup is included in all our tree services. Wood can be cut into firewood lengths and left for your use, or hauled away entirely based on your preference. Brush and smaller debris are always removed from the property. Wood chips from grinding can be spread in your landscape beds as mulch or removed completely. Our goal is leaving your property cleaner than when we started. Some customers prefer keeping larger wood pieces for firewood or other uses, which we can often arrange at no additional cost.

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

Several signs indicate a tree may need removal: significant lean toward structures, large dead branches throughout the canopy, fungal growth at the base indicating root rot, hollow or decayed trunk, and damage to more than 50% of the tree. However, many trees that appear problematic can actually be saved with proper care. A certified arborist can assess the tree’s structural integrity, health, and risk factors to determine if removal is truly necessary or if trimming and treatment might be sufficient. Don’t make this decision alone – professional evaluation prevents unnecessary removals and identifies real hazards.
