Complete Tree Services Elwood

Full Service Tree Care

Every job includes complete debris removal and site cleanup – no piles of branches left for you to deal with. We handle stump grinding, so you don’t have an ugly reminder of where the tree used to be.

Emergency services are available for storm damage and hazardous situations. When a tree falls across your driveway or threatens your power lines, you need immediate response from people with the right equipment and experience.

Beyond removal, our certified arborists provide pruning and trimming services that actually improve your trees’ health and appearance. Proper pruning techniques promote strong growth, reduce disease risk, and enhance your property’s curb appeal. Each cut is made with an understanding of how trees heal and grow.

How much does tree removal cost in Elwood?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. A small tree in an open area might cost $300-600, while large trees near structures or power lines can range from $1,000-3,000 or more. The price includes safe removal, complete cleanup, and debris hauling. Factors that affect cost include tree height, trunk diameter, proximity to buildings, accessibility for equipment, and whether stump grinding is needed. Every situation is different, which is why we provide detailed, written estimates after evaluating your specific tree and property conditions.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree on my property?

Permit requirements vary by tree size and local regulations in Elwood and Nassau County. Generally, you may need a permit for removing healthy trees over a certain diameter, but diseased, dead, or hazardous trees can often be removed without permits. Some neighborhoods have additional restrictions through homeowners associations or local ordinances. We handle permit applications when required and can quickly determine if your tree removal needs approval. Our team knows the local regulations and will ensure all necessary paperwork is completed before starting work, so you don’t have to navigate the bureaucracy yourself.

How quickly can you remove a dangerous tree?

For truly hazardous situations – trees threatening structures, blocking roads, or creating immediate safety risks – we offer emergency services and can often respond the same day. For routine removals, we typically schedule within 1-2 weeks depending on weather and current workload. Storm damage creates high demand, so calling early gets you on the schedule faster. We prioritize jobs based on safety risk, so a tree leaning toward your house gets attention before routine maintenance work. During our initial assessment, we’ll give you an honest timeline and let you know if your situation qualifies for emergency response.

Will tree removal damage my lawn or landscaping?

Professional tree removal minimizes property damage through careful planning and proper equipment. We use protective mats under heavy machinery, plan cutting sequences to control where branches fall, and work systematically to avoid unnecessary impact. Some minor lawn disturbance is inevitable with large tree removals, but we restore affected areas by raking, reseeding, or replacing sod as needed. The goal is leaving your property clean and undamaged. Our crews have experience working in tight spaces around established landscaping, fences, and structures. Any unavoidable damage is discussed upfront and addressed as part of the job completion.

What's the difference between tree trimming and pruning?

The terms are often used interchangeably, but pruning is more precise and health-focused while trimming is generally about size and shape control. Pruning involves selective removal of specific branches to improve tree health, remove disease, eliminate hazards, or enhance structure. It requires understanding tree biology and proper cutting techniques. Trimming is more about maintaining size, clearing branches from structures, or improving appearance. Both services require knowledge of when and how to cut without damaging the tree. Our certified arborists use proper techniques for either service, making cuts that promote healing and don’t leave trees vulnerable to disease or pest problems.

Do you clean up all the debris after tree removal?

Yes, complete cleanup and debris removal is included in every job. This means hauling away all branches, logs, and wood chips – not just cutting the tree down and leaving you with a mess. We rake the area clean, remove any wood debris, and leave your property looking neat and maintained. Stump grinding is typically a separate service, but we handle that too if requested. Some customers want to keep firewood, which we can cut and stack for you. The goal is completing the job entirely, so you don’t need to rent a truck or make multiple trips to the dump yourself.
