Lloyd Harbor Tree Service Company

We Know Long Island Trees

Miguel’s Tree Service has been handling tree removal across Long Island for years. We understand the soil conditions, weather patterns, and tree species that make each removal job different here.

You’re working with licensed arborists who’ve seen every type of tree situation Long Island throws at us. Storm damage, disease, overgrowth, or just trees in the wrong place – we handle it safely.

Our equipment and experience mean we can remove trees other companies won’t touch. Close to power lines, tight spaces between houses, or massive old-growth trees that require careful planning.

Tree Removal Process Lloyd Harbor

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we assess your tree and property. This isn’t a quick glance – we’re looking at the tree’s condition, lean, proximity to structures, and the safest removal approach. You’ll know exactly what needs to happen and why.

Next comes the actual removal. We use proper rigging techniques to control every piece as it comes down. No dropping large sections and hoping for the best. Each cut is planned to protect your property.

Cleanup follows immediately. Branches get chipped, logs get sectioned for removal, and we rake up the smaller debris. The stump gets ground below grade so you can plant grass or whatever you want in that spot. You’re left with a clean property, not a construction zone.

Complete Tree Disposal Services

Everything's Included in Tree Removal

Tree removal means the whole job. Cutting, rigging, cleanup, stump grinding, and hauling everything away. You don’t coordinate multiple contractors or deal with disposal yourself.

We handle permit requirements when needed. Lloyd Harbor has specific regulations about tree removal, and we know what’s required. No surprises or delays because paperwork wasn’t filed correctly.

Our insurance covers the work and your property. This matters more than most people realize until something goes wrong. Professional tree removal isn’t just about having the right equipment – it’s about having the right coverage when working near your house, cars, and landscaping.

Tree removal costs depend on size, location, and complexity. A small tree away from structures might run $300-600, while large trees near buildings or power lines can cost $1,500-3,000 or more. We provide detailed estimates after assessing your specific situation. Factors like tree height, trunk diameter, proximity to structures, and access for equipment all affect pricing. Emergency removals typically cost more due to urgency and often more challenging conditions. The estimate includes cutting, cleanup, stump grinding, and disposal – no hidden fees for hauling away debris.
Lloyd Harbor has tree preservation regulations that may require permits for removing certain trees. Generally, you need a permit for removing healthy trees over specific sizes, especially if they’re considered significant or heritage trees. Dead, diseased, or hazardous trees can usually be removed without permits, but documentation of the tree’s condition may be required. We handle permit applications when needed and can advise whether your tree removal requires approval. It’s always better to check first rather than face potential fines or complications later.
Most residential tree removals take 2-6 hours depending on size and complexity. A straightforward removal of a medium tree might be done in a morning, while large trees near structures can take a full day or longer. Weather conditions, access for equipment, and cleanup requirements also affect timing. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during the estimate. Emergency removals often happen faster, but complex situations requiring special rigging or working around obstacles take longer. The goal is doing it safely, not quickly.
All debris gets removed from your property unless you specifically want to keep some wood. Branches get chipped into mulch, which we haul away or can leave for your landscaping if you want it. Larger logs can be cut into firewood lengths if you use wood for heating, otherwise they’re removed too. We don’t leave brush piles or sawdust scattered around your yard. The area gets cleaned up so you can use the space immediately. Stump grinding produces wood chips that we typically remove, but some homeowners like to keep them for garden paths or mulch.
Yes, but these situations require special techniques and equipment. Trees near structures get removed in sections using rigging systems to control each piece as it comes down. We never just cut and let pieces fall. For trees touching power lines, we coordinate with utility companies who may need to temporarily shut off power or remove lines. Some situations require bucket trucks or cranes for safe access. These removals take longer and cost more due to the complexity, but they can be done safely with proper planning and equipment.
Property owners are generally responsible for damage caused by trees on their property, especially if the tree was obviously hazardous beforehand. This is why removing dangerous trees promptly is important – waiting can create liability issues. Our insurance covers damage during the removal process, but we can’t cover damage from trees that fall naturally after we’ve recommended removal. If you have a tree leaning toward a neighbor’s property or showing signs of disease or instability, document its condition and consider removal before it becomes an emergency. Most insurance companies prefer proactive removal over damage claims.
