Tree Removal Process

Straightforward Process From Assessment to Cleanup

First, our arborist evaluates the tree and surrounding area. You’ll know exactly what needs to happen, how long it’ll take, and what it costs before any cutting begins.

The removal itself starts with securing the area and protecting your property. Strategic cuts bring the tree down in sections, controlling where each piece falls. No guessing, no hoping for the best.

Cleanup happens the same day. All wood, branches, and debris get loaded up and hauled away. Your yard gets raked clean and any damaged areas get restored. You’re left with just the space where the tree used to be, ready for whatever you want to do next.

Emergency Tree Cutting Service

Complete Tree Removal and Site Restoration

Every tree removal includes professional assessment, safe cutting techniques, and complete debris removal. We bring commercial-grade equipment designed for residential properties, so your landscaping doesn’t get destroyed in the process.

Emergency tree service is available for storm damage and urgent situations. Trees leaning against houses, blocking driveways, or threatening power lines get priority response. The goal is making your property safe again as quickly as possible.

Stump grinding is available to finish the job completely. Most homeowners want the stump gone too, especially if they’re planning to replant or use the space for something else. The grinding goes below ground level so you can plant grass or install new landscaping right over the area.

How much does tree removal cost in Lynbrook?

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 tree near your house or power lines could run several thousand. Most removals in Lynbrook fall between $800 and $2,500. The price includes cutting, debris removal, and basic cleanup. Factors like tree height, trunk diameter, proximity to structures, and accessibility all affect the final cost. Emergency removals typically cost more due to the urgent nature and potential after-hours work required.

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

Lynbrook has specific regulations about tree removal, especially for larger trees or those in certain areas. Generally, you need a permit for removing healthy trees over a certain diameter, but dead, diseased, or hazardous trees can often be removed without permits. The rules can be complex and change based on tree species, size, and location on your property. We handle permit applications when required and know the current local regulations. It’s always better to check first rather than face potential fines or having to replant trees later.

How long does it take to remove a tree?

Most residential tree removals take between 2-6 hours, depending on the tree’s size and complexity. A straightforward removal of a medium-sized tree in an open area might be done in a couple hours. Large trees near houses require more time for careful sectional removal, sometimes taking a full day. Emergency situations get handled as quickly as safely possible, but safety always comes first. The cleanup and debris removal usually add another hour or two to the total time. Weather conditions can also affect timing, as we won’t work in dangerous conditions.

Will tree removal damage my yard or landscaping?

Professional tree removal minimizes damage to your existing landscaping, but some impact is unavoidable when removing large trees. We use protective measures like plywood over delicate areas and plan the tree’s fall path to avoid flower beds and other plantings. Heavy equipment is necessary for large removals, which can leave some marks on the lawn. Most minor lawn damage recovers quickly, especially if the work is done during growing season. Any significant damage to landscaping gets repaired as part of the service. The goal is leaving your property in better condition than when we arrived, minus the unwanted tree.

Can you remove a tree that's close to my house?

Yes, trees close to houses are removed regularly using specialized techniques and equipment. The process involves cutting the tree in sections rather than felling it whole, with each piece carefully lowered using ropes and rigging systems. This controlled approach prevents damage to your roof, siding, windows, or foundation. Trees touching houses or growing through power lines require extra precautions and sometimes coordination with utility companies. We have experience working in tight spaces and around obstacles. These removals take longer and cost more than open-area trees, but they’re completely manageable with proper equipment and expertise.

What happens to the wood after tree removal?

All wood and debris gets hauled away as part of the standard service, unless you specifically want to keep some of it. Many homeowners like to keep firewood if the tree was healthy, which can be cut to length and stacked wherever you want it. The rest of the debris goes to recycling facilities where it gets turned into mulch or other wood products. Nothing goes to landfills unnecessarily. If you want all the wood removed, that’s included in the price. If you want some kept and some removed, that’s easily arranged. Just let us know your preferences before the work starts.
