Tree Removal Process

Simple Process, Professional Results

First, our arborist evaluates your tree and property to plan the safest removal approach. We identify potential hazards, measure clearances, and determine the best cutting sequence to avoid damage to structures, utilities, or other trees.

The removal happens in controlled sections using professional rigging equipment. Large trees get cut from the top down in manageable pieces rather than trying to drop the whole trunk. This protects your property and gives precise control over where each piece lands.

Cleanup is part of our service, not an extra charge. All wood, branches, and debris get hauled away. If you want the wood for firewood, that can be arranged. Stump grinding removes what’s left below ground so you can replant or restore the area completely.

The work area gets raked and cleared so your property looks clean and professional when we leave. You get documentation for insurance purposes if needed, and any permits required by local ordinances get handled properly.

How much does tree removal cost in Huntington Station?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. A small tree in an open yard might cost a few hundred dollars, while a large oak near power lines or between houses costs significantly more due to the specialized equipment and extra time required. Most tree removal in Huntington Station ranges from $500 to $2,500 per tree. Emergency removal after storms typically costs more due to the urgent response and potentially hazardous conditions. The best approach is getting an on-site estimate so you know exactly what the job involves and what it will cost.

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

Huntington Station tree removal permits depend on the tree’s size, species, and location on your property. Generally, you can remove trees under a certain diameter without permits, but larger trees or those in protected areas may require town approval. Some homeowner associations also have their own tree removal rules. Dead, diseased, or dangerous trees usually get expedited permit approval since they pose safety risks. We know local ordinances and can help determine if permits are needed for your specific situation. It’s worth checking before starting work to avoid potential fines or complications.

How long does tree removal take to complete?

Most single tree removals in Huntington Station take between 2-6 hours depending on the tree’s size and location. A straightforward removal in an open area goes much faster than a tree wedged between houses or near power lines. Large trees requiring piece-by-piece removal take longer because each cut must be carefully planned and executed. Multiple trees or complex jobs might take a full day or require scheduling across multiple days. Stump grinding adds another hour or two to the timeline. Weather conditions can also affect scheduling since tree removal requires safe working conditions for our crew and your property.

What happens to the wood and debris after removal?

All wood and debris gets hauled away as part of our tree removal service unless you specifically want to keep some for firewood or other uses. Branches and smaller pieces go through a chipper and get recycled as mulch or biomass. Larger trunk sections might go to lumber mills or get processed for firewood depending on the wood species and quality. You shouldn’t have to worry about disposal or cleanup – that’s included in professional tree removal. If you want to keep some of the wood, let us know beforehand so we can cut it to the lengths you need and stack it where you want it.

Can you remove trees near power lines safely?

Trees near power lines require special training, equipment, and often coordination with the utility company. We have insulated equipment and follow strict safety protocols when working around electrical lines. However, if branches are actually touching power lines, the utility company usually needs to shut off power temporarily during removal. This isn’t a DIY job under any circumstances – contact between trees and power lines causes electrocution, fires, and power outages. We’ll assess the situation and coordinate with PSEG or other utilities if needed to ensure the work gets done safely without risking injury or neighborhood power disruption.

Do you provide emergency tree removal after storms?

Yes, we provide emergency tree service when storms damage trees in Huntington Station. Priority goes to situations where fallen trees block access roads, threaten structures, or create immediate safety hazards. Response time depends on the severity of the storm and how many emergency calls we receive, but dangerous situations get addressed as quickly as possible. Emergency removal costs more than scheduled work due to the urgent response and potentially hazardous working conditions. If a tree falls on your house or blocks your driveway, document the damage for insurance purposes and call for emergency service rather than trying to clear it yourself with potentially unstable tree sections.
