Emergency Tree Removal Service

Complete Tree Removal Solutions

Every tree removal includes safe sectioning, complete debris removal, and site cleanup. You don’t have to worry about disposing of massive branches or wood chips. We bring the equipment needed to handle trees of any size safely.

Emergency tree service is available when storms hit Levittown. Fallen trees blocking driveways, damaged trees threatening structures, or trees on power lines get priority response. We understand that some tree situations can’t wait.

Stump grinding services remove what’s left after tree removal. Most homeowners want the stump gone so they can replant, expand their lawn, or simply eliminate the tripping hazard. Our grinding process removes the stump below ground level and leaves you with wood chips you can use for mulch or have removed.

How much does tree removal cost in Levittown?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. A small tree in an open area might cost $300-600, while large trees near structures or power lines can run $1,000-3,000 or more. The height, diameter, species, and accessibility all affect pricing. Trees that require careful sectioning to avoid property damage cost more than trees that can be felled in one piece. Most companies provide free estimates, so you’ll know the exact cost before committing to the work.

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

Levittown and Nassau County have specific regulations about tree removal, especially for larger trees or those in protected areas. Generally, you can remove dead, diseased, or dangerous trees without permits, but healthy trees over certain sizes may require approval. Some neighborhoods have additional restrictions through homeowners associations. The safest approach is checking with the Town of Hempstead building department before removing large, healthy trees. Most tree service companies are familiar with local regulations and can guide you through the process.

How quickly can you remove a dangerous tree?

Emergency tree removal typically happens within 24-48 hours, depending on the situation and weather conditions. Trees that have fallen on homes, are blocking roads, or pose immediate safety threats get priority scheduling. For non-emergency removals, most jobs are scheduled within a week or two. During storm season, response times may be longer as crews handle multiple emergency calls. The key is calling as soon as you notice a tree becoming dangerous rather than waiting for it to become an emergency.

What happens to the wood after tree removal?

Most tree removal services include hauling away all debris, including logs, branches, and wood chips. Some companies offer to leave firewood if you want it, but you need to request this beforehand. Large logs from valuable species like oak or maple sometimes get sold to lumber mills or woodworkers. Branches and smaller pieces typically go to recycling facilities where they’re turned into mulch or compost. If you want wood chips for your landscaping, most crews can leave them in a designated area of your property.

Can you remove a tree without damaging my lawn or landscaping?

Professional tree removal crews use techniques to minimize lawn and landscaping damage, but some impact is usually unavoidable. We use plywood or mats to protect grass from heavy equipment, plan the tree’s fall direction carefully, and section trees in tight spaces to avoid crushing plants. However, large trees require heavy equipment, and some lawn repair may be needed afterward. We discuss potential damage upfront and take reasonable precautions to protect your property. The alternative – letting a dangerous tree fall naturally – typically causes much more damage.

Should I remove a tree myself to save money?

DIY tree removal is extremely dangerous and usually costs more than hiring professionals when you factor in equipment rental, disposal fees, and potential property damage. Tree removal requires specialized equipment, safety training, and insurance coverage. One mistake can result in serious injury, property damage, or even death. Large trees store enormous amounts of energy and can behave unpredictably when cut. Professional tree services have the experience, equipment, and insurance to handle removals safely. The money you think you’re saving isn’t worth the risk to your safety or property.
