Tree Removal Process

How We Remove Trees Safely

First, we assess your tree and property to plan the safest removal approach. We identify potential hazards like power lines, structures, and landscaping that need protection.

Next, we section the tree strategically, removing branches and trunk pieces in a controlled sequence. We use professional rigging equipment when needed to guide falling sections away from your property.

Finally, we grind the stump if requested and clean up completely. We haul away all debris, rake the area, and leave your property ready for whatever comes next. You don’t touch a single branch.

What's Included in Tree Removal

Your tree removal includes complete cutting, sectioning, and debris removal. We bring all necessary equipment including chainsaws, rigging gear, and wood chippers.

Property protection is standard – we use tarps, plywood, and careful planning to avoid damage to your landscaping, structures, and hardscaping. If we damage something, our insurance covers it.

Tree removal costs depend on size, location, and complexity. Small trees under 30 feet typically cost $300-800, while large trees over 60 feet can range from $1,200-3,000 or more. Trees near power lines, close to structures, or requiring crane access cost more due to additional safety measures and equipment needed. We provide free estimates that break down all costs upfront, including debris removal and any permit fees required by Smithtown.
Smithtown requires permits for removing certain trees, particularly those over specific sizes or in protected areas. The town has regulations about removing healthy trees and may require replacement plantings in some cases. We handle permit applications and know which removals require municipal approval. Dead, diseased, or hazardous trees typically have fewer restrictions, but it’s always best to check first. We’ll review your situation during the estimate and handle any necessary paperwork.
Most residential tree removals take 2-6 hours depending on size and complexity. Small trees can be removed in under 2 hours, while large trees or those requiring special rigging might take a full day. Weather conditions, equipment access, and cleanup requirements affect timing. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during your estimate and keep you updated if conditions change. Emergency storm damage removals get priority scheduling and we work as quickly as safety allows.
Professional tree removal minimizes lawn and landscaping damage through careful planning and protective measures. We use plywood to protect driveways, tarps to catch debris, and strategic cutting techniques to control where tree sections fall. Some minor lawn damage from equipment is normal for large tree removals, but we repair obvious ruts and reseed damaged areas when possible. The alternative – letting a dangerous tree fall naturally – causes far more damage than controlled professional removal.
Trees touching or very close to power lines require coordination with PSEG Long Island for safety. We don’t cut trees in direct contact with live electrical wires – that requires utility company involvement. However, we can remove trees near power lines once the utility company has cleared the immediate electrical hazard or confirmed the area is safe. We have experience working around electrical infrastructure and know when to call in utility crews first. Safety always comes before speed.
Yes, we provide emergency tree removal throughout Smithtown for storm damage and hazardous situations. We prioritize calls involving trees on homes, blocking roads, or creating immediate safety hazards. Emergency services cost more than scheduled removals due to after-hours work and urgent response requirements. We typically respond within hours during storms and can provide temporary solutions like sectioning fallen trees to restore access while planning complete removal. Call immediately if you have a tree emergency threatening property or safety.
