Tree Removal Process Explained

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we assess the tree and surrounding area. We identify potential hazards, plan the safest removal approach, and protect your landscaping with ground protection.

Next, we section the tree from top to bottom using proper rigging techniques. Large pieces are lowered safely using ropes and pulleys—never just dropped. Our equipment stays off your lawn whenever possible.

Finally, we grind the stump below ground level and clean up completely. All debris gets hauled away, and we rake the area clean. You shouldn’t have to touch a single branch.

Complete Tree Removal Services

Everything's Included, Nothing Extra

Your tree removal includes complete debris removal, stump grinding, and site cleanup. We bring ground protection to prevent lawn damage and use specialized rigging equipment for safe removal in tight spaces.

How much does tree removal cost in North Great River?

Tree removal costs depend on size, location, and complexity. A small tree in an open area might cost $300-600, while large trees near structures or power lines can run $1,500-3,000 or more. We provide free estimates that break down all costs upfront—no surprises when the job is done. Emergency removals may include additional fees for after-hours or weekend service, but we’ll discuss that before starting any work.

Do you handle emergency tree removal after storms?

Yes, we provide emergency tree service throughout North Great River and Suffolk County. When storms hit Long Island, we prioritize dangerous situations—trees on houses, blocking roads, or threatening power lines. We typically respond within hours during emergencies, depending on the severity of the storm and call volume. Keep our number handy during storm season, and call immediately if a tree threatens your safety or property.

Will tree removal damage my lawn or landscaping?

We use ground protection mats and specialized equipment to minimize lawn damage during tree removal. Our crews are trained to work in tight residential spaces without destroying your landscaping. However, some minor impact is unavoidable with large tree removals—we’ll discuss this during your estimate and repair any significant damage we cause. Most customers are surprised by how clean we leave their property after removal.

Do I need a permit for tree removal in North Great River?

Permit requirements vary depending on tree size, species, and location on your property. Some municipalities require permits for trees over a certain diameter, while others have restrictions on removing healthy trees. We’re familiar with local regulations and can help you determine if permits are needed. As licensed professionals, we can often handle permit applications for you, saving you time and ensuring compliance with local ordinances.

What happens to the wood after tree removal?

We typically haul away all debris and dispose of it properly unless you request otherwise. Some customers want to keep firewood from their trees—just let us know during scheduling and we’ll cut and stack it for you. Large trunk sections can be left for future projects if you have space and plans for the wood. Otherwise, everything gets removed from your property as part of our standard cleanup process.

How do I know if my tree needs to be removed?

Signs that indicate tree removal include dead or dying branches, visible decay at the base, leaning significantly after storms, or root damage from construction. Trees with large branches hanging over your house, driveway, or neighbor’s property may also need removal for safety reasons. Our certified arborists can assess questionable trees and recommend removal or treatment options. When in doubt, it’s better to have a professional evaluation than risk property damage or injury.
