Tree Removal Process

Clear Process From Start to Finish

Our process starts with a thorough assessment of the tree and surrounding area. Our certified arborist identifies potential hazards, determines the safest removal approach, and explains exactly what will happen during the job.

Next comes the actual removal using professional equipment and proven techniques. Dangerous trees get sectioned down piece by piece to avoid any property damage. Healthy trees in tight spaces get the same careful treatment to protect your landscaping, structures, and utilities.

The job isn’t finished until everything is cleaned up and hauled away. That includes the trunk, branches, leaves, and any debris created during removal. You’re left with a clean property and the stump ground down if requested. No mess, no follow-up cleanup required on your part.

How much does tree removal cost in Brookhaven?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. Small trees under 30 feet typically cost less than large mature trees that require specialized equipment. Trees close to power lines, structures, or in tight spaces cost more due to the precision work required. Most Brookhaven tree removals range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars. The best approach is getting a written estimate after an on-site assessment, which accounts for your specific situation and ensures no surprise costs later.

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

Brookhaven has specific regulations about tree removal, especially for larger trees or those in protected areas. Generally, you need permits for removing healthy trees over a certain size, but dead, diseased, or hazardous trees often qualify for removal without permits. The rules can be complex and change based on your exact location within Brookhaven. A certified arborist can assess your situation and handle any required permits as part of the service, ensuring you stay compliant with local regulations while getting the tree removed safely.

How long does it take to remove a tree?

Most single tree removals take between 2-8 hours depending on size and complexity. Small trees in open areas might be done in a couple hours, while large trees near structures can take a full day. Multiple tree removal projects obviously take longer. Weather conditions, permit requirements, and utility line considerations can affect timing. Emergency storm damage removals get prioritized and often happen within 24 hours. During the estimate, you’ll get a realistic timeframe based on your specific trees and property layout.

Is tree removal covered by homeowners insurance?

Insurance typically covers tree removal when the tree damages your home, other structures, or blocks access to your property. Storm-damaged trees that fall on your house or driveway usually qualify for coverage. However, removing trees that haven’t caused damage – even if they’re dead or hazardous – generally isn’t covered. Each insurance policy is different, so check with your provider. When insurance does apply, working with licensed, insured tree services helps ensure proper documentation and smooth claims processing.

What happens to the tree after it's removed?

Complete tree disposal is included in professional tree removal service. All branches, trunk sections, and debris get loaded and hauled away from your property. The wood often gets recycled into mulch, firewood, or lumber depending on the tree species and condition. You don’t have to arrange separate disposal or worry about debris piles sitting in your yard. Stump grinding can eliminate the remaining stump and roots, leaving the area ready for new landscaping or construction. This complete approach means one call handles everything from cutting to cleanup.

Can you remove trees near power lines safely?

Trees near power lines require specialized training, equipment, and often coordination with utility companies. Certified arborists have the expertise to work safely around electrical hazards, but some situations require utility company involvement first. The power might need to be temporarily shut off for the safest removal approach. Never attempt DIY removal of trees touching or near power lines – the risk of electrocution is serious. We assess each situation and handle any required utility coordination to ensure safe removal without power disruption to the neighborhood.
