You get more than just tree removal or trimming. You get peace of mind knowing your property is safer, more valuable, and better protected against storm damage. Professional tree care means your landscape looks intentional, your trees stay healthy longer, and dangerous limbs are handled before they become expensive problems.
Your neighbors notice when trees are properly maintained. Property values reflect professional landscaping. Most importantly, you sleep better knowing that old oak isn’t going to come down on your roof during the next nor’easter.
When tree work is done right, your property tells a story of care and attention to detail that sets it apart from houses where trees are just left to chance.
We understand Selden’s unique landscape challenges. We’ve worked through countless Long Island storms, handled mature trees that have been growing for decades, and know exactly what Suffolk County regulations require for different types of tree work.
Being licensed and insured isn’t just a checkbox for us. When you’re dealing with 50-foot trees near power lines or removing storm-damaged limbs over your neighbor’s fence, you want professionals who take responsibility seriously. We carry full insurance because tree work has real consequences when it’s not done right.
Selden homeowners choose us because we show up when we say we will, work efficiently without tearing up your lawn, and leave your property cleaner than we found it. That’s how local businesses earn trust and stay in business.
We start with a free estimate where we assess your trees, identify any safety concerns, and explain exactly what needs to happen. You get a clear breakdown of costs upfront with no surprises. We’ll also let you know if permits are required under Brookhaven Town regulations.
On job day, our crew arrives with professional equipment including cranes, chippers, and stump grinders as needed. We use plywood to protect sensitive areas and plan our equipment routes carefully to minimize impact on your landscaping. Most single tree removals take 2-6 hours depending on size and complexity.
After the work is complete, we handle all cleanup and debris removal. You won’t find wood chips scattered around your property or branches left in your neighbor’s yard. We grind stumps 6-8 inches below ground level so you can plant grass or new landscaping right over the area.

Our tree services include removal, trimming, pruning, stump grinding, and emergency storm cleanup. We handle everything from small ornamental trees to massive oaks that require crane work. Tree trimming and pruning keep your trees healthy while removing branches that threaten your roof, power lines, or walkways.
Selden’s mature tree canopy requires experienced professionals who understand proper pruning techniques that promote healthy growth and reduce storm damage risk. We also provide tree health assessments to catch disease or pest problems before they become expensive removals.
For Selden homeowners, we’re particularly experienced with the types of storm damage common to Long Island. Nor’easters and hurricanes create specific patterns of tree failure, and we know how to safely handle compromised trees without creating additional hazards. Our emergency response means you’re not waiting days for dangerous trees to be addressed.
Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. Small trees under 30 feet typically cost $300-800, while large trees requiring crane work can run $1,500-3,000 or more. Trees close to houses, power lines, or in tight spaces cost more because they require specialized equipment and extra safety precautions.
We provide free estimates that break down all costs upfront so you know exactly what you’re paying for. The estimate includes removal, cleanup, and stump grinding if requested. Emergency storm damage removals may have different pricing due to urgency and safety considerations.
Selden follows Brookhaven Town regulations, which may require permits for trees over 6 inches in diameter. However, dead, diseased, or storm-damaged trees typically don’t require permits. The specific requirements can vary based on your property’s zoning and the tree’s location.
We’re familiar with local permit requirements and can help you determine if permits are needed for your specific situation. We can also assist with the permit application process if required. It’s always best to check before starting work to avoid potential fines or complications.
Most single tree removals take 2-6 hours depending on size and complexity. Small trees can be removed in an hour or two, while large trees near structures may take a full day. Multiple tree removals or extensive storm cleanup can take several days.
Weather conditions, equipment access, and cleanup requirements all affect timing. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during your estimate and keep you updated if conditions change during the work. Emergency removals get priority scheduling regardless of size.
Professional tree removal minimizes lawn and landscaping damage, but some impact is unavoidable with large trees. We use plywood to protect sensitive areas and plan our equipment routes carefully. Heavy machinery may leave ruts in soft soil, especially after rain.
Most lawn damage recovers naturally within a few weeks, and we can recommend repair steps if needed. We take extra care around flower beds, walkways, and other landscaping features. The alternative – letting a dangerous tree fall on its own – typically causes much more extensive damage to your property.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency tree services for storm damage, fallen trees, or dangerous situations that pose immediate risks to people or property. Emergency situations get priority scheduling, and we can typically respond within hours depending on weather conditions and safety considerations.
If a tree has fallen due to storm damage and affected your property, don’t investigate it yourself. Take photos from inside your house and call us immediately. We have the equipment and experience to safely handle compromised trees without creating additional hazards.
Yes, we are fully licensed and insured for all tree services in Suffolk County. We carry comprehensive liability insurance and workers’ compensation because tree work involves serious safety risks. When you’re dealing with heavy equipment near power lines and structures, proper insurance isn’t optional.
Our licensing ensures we meet all professional standards for tree care and removal. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any work. This protects both you and our crew, and it’s one of the key differences between professional tree services and unlicensed operators.
