How much does tree removal cost in Saltaire?

Tree removal costs in Saltaire typically range from $500 to $3,000 depending on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. A 30-foot oak near your house requires different equipment and techniques than a smaller tree in an open area. We provide free estimates that break down exactly what you’re paying for, including removal, cleanup, and debris hauling. Emergency removals may cost more due to the urgent nature and potential after-hours work, but we’ll always give you the price upfront before starting any work.
Yes, we provide emergency tree removal throughout Fire Island including Saltaire. Storm damage doesn’t wait for business hours, and neither do we when trees threaten your property or block access roads. We prioritize dangerous situations where trees have fallen on structures or are hanging precariously after storms. Our emergency response includes temporary stabilization if needed and complete removal as soon as conditions allow. Keep our number handy during storm season – we understand that Fire Island’s isolated location makes quick professional response even more critical than on the mainland.
Most tree removals in Saltaire take between 2-6 hours depending on the tree’s size and location. A straightforward removal in an open area moves quickly, while trees near structures or in tight spaces require more careful sectional removal. Fire Island’s access limitations can add time for equipment transport, which we factor into our scheduling. We complete the entire job in one day whenever possible, including cleanup and debris removal. Weather conditions on the island can sometimes delay work for safety reasons, but we’ll communicate any changes to the timeline as soon as we know about them.
Saltaire has specific regulations about tree removal, and permits are often required depending on the tree’s size and species. We handle permit applications as part of our service because we know the local requirements and have working relationships with village officials. The permit process typically takes a few days to a week, which we factor into scheduling non-emergency removals. Emergency situations involving immediate safety hazards usually allow for removal first and permit documentation after. We make sure all work complies with local regulations so you don’t face any issues down the road.
Professional tree removal should not damage your existing landscaping or property when done correctly. We use rigging techniques and specialized equipment to control exactly where tree sections fall and how they’re lowered to the ground. Before starting work, we assess the area and discuss any concerns you have about protecting specific plants, structures, or lawn areas. Our crew takes care to minimize ground disturbance and uses protective materials when necessary. The goal is to remove only what you want removed while preserving everything else. Any unavoidable minor lawn damage from equipment is typically minimal and recovers quickly.
All debris removal and disposal is included in our tree removal service. We cut larger wood into manageable pieces and haul everything off your property the same day. If you want to keep some of the wood for firewood or other uses, just let us know before we start and we’ll stack it wherever you’d like on your property. Otherwise, we handle all disposal through proper channels. Branches, leaves, and smaller debris get chipped or disposed of appropriately. You don’t need to worry about finding a way to get rid of a massive pile of tree debris – that’s all part of what you’re paying us to handle completely.
