How much does tree removal cost in Selden, NY?

Tree removal costs in Selden typically range from $300 for small trees to $2,000+ for large, complex removals. The price depends on tree size, location, accessibility, and proximity to structures. Trees near power lines or in tight spaces between houses require more careful work and specialized equipment. We provide detailed estimates after assessing your specific situation, including any permit requirements and cleanup needs. Emergency removals after storms may cost more due to urgency and hazardous conditions.

Do I need a permit to remove trees in Selden?

Selden follows Brookhaven Town regulations, which require permits for removing trees over 6 inches in diameter. Certain protected species have stricter requirements regardless of size. Dead, diseased, or hazardous trees may qualify for expedited permits. The permit process typically takes 2-3 weeks, though emergency situations can be handled faster. We help navigate the permit application and can often handle the paperwork for you. Removing trees without proper permits can result in significant fines, so it’s worth doing it right the first time.

How quickly can you respond to storm damage emergencies?

We prioritize emergency calls involving immediate safety hazards like trees on houses, blocking driveways, or threatening power lines. During major storms affecting Long Island, we typically respond within 24 hours for true emergencies. Non-urgent storm cleanup may take 2-3 days depending on the scope of damage across our service area. We work with insurance companies and can provide documentation needed for claims. Keep in mind that emergency services during active storms may be limited until conditions are safe for our crews to work.

What's the difference between tree trimming and pruning?

Tree trimming typically refers to cutting back overgrown branches for appearance and basic maintenance. Pruning is more precise work focused on tree health, removing dead or diseased branches, and shaping growth patterns. Professional arborists use pruning techniques that promote healthy growth and reduce future problems. Improper cutting can damage trees and create entry points for disease. The timing also matters – most trees should be pruned during dormant seasons, while emergency trimming for safety can happen anytime. We assess each tree’s needs and recommend the appropriate approach.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work?

Yes, we carry full licensing and insurance coverage including general liability and workers compensation. This protects you from liability if accidents occur on your property during tree work. Many homeowners don’t realize they can be held responsible for injuries to uninsured workers. We provide proof of insurance before starting any job and our coverage meets or exceeds local requirements. Our arborists maintain professional certifications and stay current with safety standards. Never hire tree services that can’t provide current insurance documentation – it’s not worth the risk.

How do I know if a tree needs to be removed?

Signs that indicate tree removal include large dead branches, hollow or decaying trunk, fungal growth at the base, significant lean toward structures, and root damage from construction. Trees with more than 50% dead or damaged canopy rarely recover and become safety hazards. Soil changes, construction damage, or disease can compromise tree stability even if they look healthy above ground. Our arborists can assess tree health and structural integrity to determine if removal is necessary or if treatment options exist. When in doubt, it’s better to have a professional evaluation than risk property damage or injury.
