Tree Removal Process

Simple Process, Professional Results

First, a certified arborist comes to your property for a free assessment. We’ll evaluate the tree’s condition, identify potential hazards, and explain exactly what needs to happen.

You get a written estimate that covers everything – removal, cleanup, and any additional services like stump grinding. No surprises or hidden fees after the work starts.

On removal day, our crew arrives with all necessary equipment and safety gear. We section the tree carefully to avoid damage to your property, then handle all debris removal and site cleanup. You’re left with a clean, safe space ready for whatever comes next.

How much does tree removal cost in Greenvale?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. Most residential removals in Greenvale range from $500 to $2,500. Small trees under 30 feet typically cost $500-$1,000, while large trees over 60 feet or those near structures can cost $1,500-$3,000 or more. The location matters too – trees close to houses, power lines, or in tight spaces require more careful work and specialized equipment. Every situation is different, which is why we provide free, detailed estimates that break down all costs upfront.

Do I need a permit for tree removal in Greenvale?

Greenvale follows Nassau County regulations for tree removal. You typically need a permit for removing healthy trees over 6 inches in diameter, but dead, diseased, or hazardous trees can usually be removed without permits. The rules can be complex and change based on your property’s specific zoning and the tree species. We handle permit applications when needed and can tell you right away if your situation requires one. It’s always better to check first rather than face potential fines or having to replant trees later.

How long does tree removal take?

Most single tree removals take 2-6 hours depending on the tree’s size and location. Small trees in open areas might be done in an hour, while large trees near structures can take a full day. Complex removals requiring cranes or extensive rigging take longer. Weather conditions also affect timing – we won’t work in high winds or storms for safety reasons. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during the estimate and keep you updated if anything changes. The cleanup is included in that time, so when we leave, the job is completely finished.

Will tree removal damage my lawn or landscaping?

Professional tree removal minimizes damage to your property, but some impact is usually unavoidable. Heavy equipment can leave ruts in soft ground, and falling branches can damage nearby plants. However, experienced crews know how to protect your landscaping using plywood, tarps, and careful rigging techniques. We’ll discuss potential impacts during the estimate and take steps to minimize them. Any significant damage to lawns or gardens is typically repairable and much less costly than the damage a falling tree could cause. Most customers find the minor lawn repair needed is a fair trade for removing a dangerous tree safely.

Can you remove a tree close to my house?

Yes, removing trees close to structures is one of our specialties. Greenvale has many mature properties where trees have grown close to homes over the decades. We use specialized rigging techniques and sometimes cranes to remove trees in sections without damaging your house, roof, or siding. Each piece is carefully controlled as it comes down. The process takes longer than removing trees in open areas, but it’s completely manageable with the right equipment and experience. We’ve successfully removed trees just feet from homes, power lines, and other structures throughout Nassau County.

What happens to the wood after tree removal?

The branches and smaller wood get chipped and removed as part of the service. For larger logs, you have options – we can cut them into firewood lengths and stack them for you, or remove everything completely. Some customers like to keep the wood for their fireplace or fire pit, while others prefer total removal. If you want the wood removed, we handle disposal at licensed facilities. We’ll discuss your preference during the estimate so there are no surprises. The goal is to leave your property exactly how you want it when the job is finished.
