Your Property Safe, Clean, and Worry-Free

That massive oak leaning toward your house isn’t going to fix itself. Neither is the storm-damaged maple blocking your driveway or the dying pine dropping branches on your roof.

You need it gone safely, completely, and without turning your yard into a disaster zone. You need someone who shows up when they say they will, knows what they’re doing, and won’t leave you with a bigger mess than you started with.

When we’re done, you’ll have your peace of mind back. Your property will be safe, the debris will be gone, and you won’t be lying awake during the next storm wondering if tonight’s the night that tree comes down.

Complete Tree Removal Services

Everything Included, Nothing Extra to Buy

Your tree removal includes the complete job. We cut down the tree, remove all debris, grind the stump, and clean up your property. No surprise charges for cleanup or disposal.

We handle permit applications when required by Nassau County regulations. Our insurance covers your property during the work, and we’ll provide proof of coverage before we start.

Emergency tree service is available 24/7 for storm damage or dangerous situations. We know that trees don’t wait for business hours to become problems, and neither do we.

How much does tree removal cost in Massapequa?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. Most residential removals in Massapequa range from $500 to $2,000, but emergency removals or particularly large trees can cost more. We provide free estimates that include everything – cutting, cleanup, stump grinding, and debris removal. You’ll know the exact cost before we start, with no hidden fees or surprise charges after the work is done.

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

Nassau County and local Massapequa regulations require permits for removing certain trees, especially those over specific sizes or in protected areas. We handle the permit research and application process for you, so you don’t have to navigate the bureaucracy. Dead, diseased, or hazardous trees typically don’t require permits, but we’ll confirm this during your free assessment. Getting the permits right protects you from potential fines and ensures the work is completely legal.

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

Yes, protecting your property is our primary concern during every removal. We use specialized rigging equipment and techniques to control exactly where each piece of the tree falls. For trees close to houses, we remove them in sections rather than felling them whole. Our crew has experience with tight spaces and challenging removals throughout Massapequa’s established neighborhoods. We’re fully insured for property protection, and we’ll show you our coverage before starting work.

How quickly can you remove a tree in an emergency?

For genuine emergencies – trees on houses, blocking roads, or creating immediate safety hazards – we respond the same day when possible, often within hours. Storm damage gets priority, especially when trees are threatening structures or preventing access to your home. Non-emergency removals are typically scheduled within a few days to a week, depending on the season and weather conditions. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during your initial call and keep you updated if anything changes.

What happens to the wood and debris after tree removal?

All debris removal is included in our service. We chip smaller branches, cut larger wood into manageable pieces for disposal, and haul everything away unless you specifically want to keep some of the wood. Many Massapequa homeowners like to keep logs for firewood, which we’re happy to cut and stack for you. Stumps are ground down below ground level, and we’ll fill the area with the wood chips or clean soil. Your property will be left clean and ready to use.

Should I try to remove a tree myself to save money?

Tree removal is genuinely dangerous work that requires specialized equipment, training, and insurance. Chainsaws, falling branches, and unpredictable tree behavior cause serious injuries every year. Beyond safety, there’s the risk of property damage – a tree falling the wrong way can cause thousands in damage to your house, cars, or neighbor’s property. Professional removal typically costs less than you’d expect, especially when you factor in equipment rental, disposal fees, and the value of your time and safety.
