How much does tree removal cost in Kensington?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. Small trees under 30 feet typically cost $300-800, while large trees over 60 feet can range from $1,200-3,000. Trees near power lines, buildings, or in tight spaces cost more due to the specialized equipment and extra care required. Every estimate includes the complete removal, stump grinding, and cleanup so you know exactly what you’re paying for upfront.

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

Kensington has specific regulations about tree removal, especially for larger trees or those in certain areas. Generally, you can remove trees under 6 inches in diameter without a permit, but larger trees may require approval. Trees near property lines, in conservation areas, or designated as heritage trees have additional restrictions. Green Light Tree Services can help determine if permits are needed and assist with the application process to ensure your tree removal is compliant with local regulations.

How long does tree removal take?

Most residential tree removals take 2-6 hours depending on the tree’s size and location. Small trees in open areas can be removed in under two hours, while large trees near structures or in tight spaces may take a full day. Emergency removals for storm damage are prioritized and often completed within 24 hours of your call. The timeline includes complete removal, stump grinding, and cleanup so your property is ready to use when we finish.

What happens to the wood and debris after removal?

All debris is hauled away as part of the service unless you request otherwise. Large logs can be cut into firewood lengths and left on your property if you want them. Smaller branches and leaves are chipped and removed completely. The stump is ground below ground level and the wood chips can be left as mulch for your landscaping or hauled away with the other debris. You choose what works best for your property and needs.

Can you remove trees in winter or bad weather?

Tree removal can be done year-round in most conditions, though extreme weather may require delays for safety reasons. Winter removal is often easier because there are no leaves to deal with and frozen ground protects your lawn from equipment damage. However, ice storms or high winds may postpone non-emergency work. Emergency tree removal for storm damage or hazardous situations takes priority regardless of weather conditions, with our crews responding as soon as it’s safe to work.

Will tree removal damage my lawn or landscaping?

Professional tree removal minimizes damage to your property through careful planning and proper equipment. We use plywood or mats to protect your lawn from heavy equipment and plan the tree’s fall to avoid landscaping and structures. Some minor lawn damage is possible with large tree removals, but the area is restored as much as possible before we leave. Most lawns recover quickly, especially when removal is done during the growing season when grass can repair itself naturally.
