Complete Tree Services Franklin Square

Everything Your Trees Need Under One Roof

We provide complete tree removal when trees are dead, diseased, or threatening your property. We handle everything from small ornamental trees to massive oaks that require crane work.

Tree trimming and pruning keeps your healthy trees in good shape. We remove dead branches, thin overcrowded areas, and shape trees to improve their health and appearance. Proper pruning also prevents storm damage.

Stump grinding eliminates those ugly stumps left behind by previous tree work. We grind them below ground level so you can plant grass, install landscaping, or just have a clean, usable yard again. Wood chipping services turn your tree debris into useful mulch for your garden beds.

How much does tree removal cost in Franklin Square?

Tree removal costs depend on the size, location, and complexity of the job. A small tree in an open area might cost a few hundred dollars, while a large tree near power lines or buildings can cost several thousand. We provide free estimates so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins. The price includes cutting, cleanup, and hauling away all debris. Most Franklin Square homeowners find our pricing fair and competitive with other local tree services.

Do I need a permit to remove trees in Franklin Square?

Franklin Square tree removal permits depend on the tree’s size and location. Generally, you don’t need permits for trees on private property unless they’re extremely large or protected species. However, trees near power lines or public areas may require utility company coordination. We handle all the paperwork and permits when they’re required. Our team knows local regulations and will make sure your tree work complies with all Franklin Square and Nassau County requirements.

What's the best time of year for tree trimming?

Late fall through early spring is ideal for most tree trimming in Franklin Square. Trees are dormant during this period, which reduces stress and minimizes sap loss. However, dead or dangerous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Storm-damaged trees also need prompt attention to prevent further problems. We trim trees year-round when safety is a concern, but we’ll recommend the best timing for routine maintenance based on your specific tree species.

How long does stump grinding take?

Most residential stump grinding jobs in Franklin Square take 30 minutes to 2 hours per stump. Small stumps from ornamental trees might only take 15-20 minutes, while large oak or maple stumps can take several hours. The process depends on stump size, root system, and accessibility for our equipment. We grind stumps 6-8 inches below ground level, then backfill with the wood chips. You can plant grass over the area immediately after we’re finished.

Are you insured for tree work near my house?

Yes, Competition Tree carries full liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. This protects you if anything goes wrong during tree work on your Franklin Square property. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any job. Our insurance covers property damage, personal injury, and worker injuries. Never hire uninsured tree services – you could be liable for accidents or damage. Always ask to see current insurance certificates before allowing any tree work on your property.

Can you work around power lines?

We can work near power lines, but we follow strict safety protocols and coordinate with utility companies when required. Trees touching or very close to power lines often require utility company involvement for safety reasons. We’ll assess the situation and determine the safest approach for your specific Franklin Square property. In some cases, the utility company handles the work at no charge to you. We never take risks with electrical hazards and will always recommend the safest solution for tree work near power lines.
