Your Property Safe, Clean, and Worry-Free

When that tree comes down, you want your property looking better than before we arrived. No broken fences, no damaged driveways, no piles of debris sitting in your yard for weeks.

You get complete removal from top to bottom. The tree, the stump, the branches, the cleanup—everything handled by professionals who know how to work around your landscaping, your neighbor’s fence, and that car you can’t move out of the driveway.

Your biggest concern should be what you’ll plant in that spot next spring. Not whether we’ll show up, not whether something gets damaged, and definitely not whether you’ll be stuck with a mess when we’re done.

On removal day, we show up with the right equipment and a plan. We section the tree down carefully, protecting everything around it. Each piece gets cut, lowered, and removed without damaging your property or your neighbor’s yard.

When the tree’s down, we handle the stump grinding if you want it gone completely. Then comes the cleanup—every branch, every piece of debris, every wood chip gets removed. We rake, we sweep, and we make sure your property looks like we were never there, except for that problem tree being gone.

How much does tree removal cost in Selden, NY?

Tree removal costs in Selden typically range from $500 to $2,500 depending on the tree’s size, location, and complexity. A small tree in an open area costs less than a large oak hanging over your house and power lines. We provide free estimates that break down all costs upfront—removal, cleanup, stump grinding if you want it, and any permit fees. The estimate includes everything so you know exactly what you’re paying before we start. Most homeowners find our pricing fair and transparent compared to companies that add surprise fees after the work begins.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Selden?

Selden requires permits for removing certain trees, especially those over specific sizes or in protected areas. The rules can be confusing, and the penalties for removing trees without proper permits can be expensive. We handle all permit applications and approvals as part of our service. We know which trees require permits, how to submit the applications, and how long the approval process takes. This saves you time dealing with town offices and ensures everything is done legally. We won’t start any work until all required permits are approved and in hand.

How long does tree removal take from start to finish?

Most tree removals take 2-6 hours depending on the tree’s size and location. A straightforward removal in an open yard goes faster than a complex job requiring careful sectioning around buildings and power lines. Emergency removals for storm damage can often be scheduled within 24 hours. The timeline includes setup, removal, stump grinding if requested, and complete cleanup. We work efficiently but never rush safety procedures. You’ll get a time estimate with your quote, and we’ll let you know if weather or unforeseen complications might affect the schedule.

What happens to the wood and debris after removal?

Complete cleanup and debris removal is included in every job. We haul away all wood, branches, leaves, and debris unless you specifically want to keep firewood or wood chips for your property. Many homeowners want the wood chips for landscaping mulch, which we’re happy to leave in a neat pile wherever you want it. Everything else gets loaded and removed the same day. We don’t leave brush piles or debris for you to deal with later. Your property gets raked clean and left looking like the tree was never there, except for the problem being solved.

Are you insured if something gets damaged during removal?

We carry full liability insurance and workers compensation coverage for every job. This protects you if equipment damages your property or if someone gets injured during the removal. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any work. Our insurance covers property damage to your home, vehicles, landscaping, or neighboring properties. Most tree removal accidents happen when homeowners try DIY removal or hire uninsured contractors. Professional insurance coverage is one of the main reasons to hire licensed tree services instead of trying to handle dangerous tree removal yourself.

Can you remove trees close to power lines or buildings?

We specialize in complex removals around power lines, buildings, and tight spaces common in Selden neighborhoods. We use sectioning techniques to carefully lower each piece without damaging surrounding structures. For trees touching power lines, we coordinate with utility companies to ensure safe removal procedures. Our crew has experience with Long Island’s close-set homes and limited access situations. We bring specialized equipment that can reach difficult areas without damaging your landscaping or driveway. Every complex removal gets a detailed plan before we start, so you know exactly how we’ll protect your property throughout the process.
