Tree Trimming Process

Here's How We Handle Your Trees

First, a certified arborist evaluates your trees. We identify which branches need removal, check for disease or pest issues, and explain what work will benefit your specific trees most.

Our crew arrives with professional equipment and safety gear. We trim according to proper arborist standards, not just cutting wherever looks convenient. Each cut is made to promote healthy growth and prevent disease entry.

Cleanup happens the same day. All branches, leaves, and debris get removed from your property. You’re left with healthier trees and a cleaner yard, not a mess to deal with.

Complete Tree Maintenance

What's Included in Tree Trimming

You get a thorough assessment of each tree’s health and structure. Our arborist identifies problems you might not notice, like early disease signs or structural weaknesses that could become dangerous.

All trimming follows industry standards for cuts, timing, and technique. This isn’t random branch removal – it’s strategic pruning that improves tree health and appearance while reducing future problems.

Complete cleanup is part of every job. Branches get cut into manageable pieces, debris gets hauled away, and your property looks better than when our crew arrived. No hidden fees for cleanup or disposal.

When is the best time to trim trees in Fort Salonga?

Late fall through early spring works best for most trees in the Fort Salonga area. Trees are dormant during these months, so trimming causes less stress and reduces disease risk. However, dead or dangerous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Some species have specific timing requirements – for example, oak trees should never be trimmed during spring and early summer to prevent oak wilt disease. A certified arborist can determine the optimal timing for your specific trees.

How much does professional tree trimming cost?

Tree trimming costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the work. Small trees typically cost $200-400, medium trees $400-800, and large trees $800-1500 or more. Trees near power lines, buildings, or other obstacles cost more due to increased difficulty and safety requirements. Emergency work and weekend service carry premium pricing. Green Light Tree Services provides free written estimates that break down all costs upfront, so you know exactly what you’re paying before work begins.

Can I trim my own trees to save money?

Small branches under 2 inches diameter are generally safe for homeowners to handle with proper tools. However, anything larger, higher than you can reach from the ground, or near power lines requires professional expertise. Improper cuts can permanently damage trees, create safety hazards, or cause expensive property damage. Tree work also involves significant injury risk – falls, equipment accidents, and falling branches cause thousands of injuries annually. Professional arborists have the training, insurance, and equipment to handle complex tree work safely.

Will tree trimming damage my trees?

Proper tree trimming actually improves tree health when done correctly. Certified arborists make precise cuts that heal quickly and don’t invite disease or pests. We remove only what’s necessary and never “top” trees or remove more than 25% of the canopy in one season. Poor trimming techniques like flush cuts, stub cuts, or excessive removal can seriously harm trees. That’s why choosing a certified arborist matters – we understand tree biology and follow proven techniques that promote long-term tree health.

Do you clean up all the branches and debris?

Yes, complete cleanup is included in every tree trimming service. Our crew cuts branches into manageable pieces, rakes up all debris, and hauls everything away from your property. You won’t be left with piles of branches or wood chips to deal with. If you want to keep some wood for firewood or mulch, just let our crew know before we start cleanup. The goal is to leave your property cleaner and more attractive than when the work began.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work?

Green Light Tree Services carries full liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage for all crew members. We are properly licensed for tree care services in New York State. Insurance certificates are available upon request before work begins. This protects you from liability if accidents occur during tree work on your property. Never hire uninsured tree services – you could be held responsible for injuries or property damage. Always verify insurance coverage and licensing before allowing any tree work on your property.
