Emergency storm cleanup is available when you need it most. Long Island weather can be unpredictable, and we respond quickly when trees come down and block driveways or damage property.

How much does tree removal cost in Holbrook?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. A small tree in an open area might cost $300-600, while large trees near structures or power lines can range from $1,000-3,000 or more. We provide free estimates that break down exactly what you’re paying for, including cleanup and debris removal. The price includes everything – no surprise charges for hauling away wood or cleaning up the mess. Factors like tree height, trunk diameter, proximity to buildings, and accessibility all affect the final cost.

Do you handle emergency tree removal after storms?

Yes, we provide emergency tree removal services throughout Holbrook and Long Island when storms damage trees or cause them to fall. We prioritize situations where trees are blocking driveways, threatening structures, or creating safety hazards. Emergency calls typically get same-day or next-day response, depending on the severity of the situation and weather conditions. We’ll secure the area, remove the tree safely, and clean up the debris. Keep in mind that emergency services during peak storm seasons may have higher rates due to increased demand and hazardous working conditions.

Will you damage my lawn or landscaping during tree work?

We take precautions to minimize damage to your existing landscaping, but some impact is unavoidable with large tree removal projects. We use plywood to protect driveways and walkways, and we rope down branches in sections rather than letting them fall freely. However, heavy equipment like stump grinders will leave tracks, and large trees will compact soil when they’re removed. We’ll discuss potential impacts upfront and work with you to minimize damage to areas you care most about. Most lawn damage recovers naturally within a growing season, and we can provide recommendations for restoration if needed.

How long does stump grinding take?

Most residential stump grinding jobs take 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the stump’s size and root system. Small stumps under 12 inches can be ground in 15-30 minutes, while large stumps over 24 inches might take several hours. We grind stumps 6-8 inches below ground level, which is deep enough for grass to grow over the area. The process creates wood chips that we can either remove or leave for you to use as mulch. Access to the stump affects timing too – stumps in tight spaces or near obstacles take longer than those in open areas.

When is the best time to trim trees?

Late fall through early spring is generally the best time for tree trimming in the Holbrook area, when trees are dormant and won’t stress from pruning. This timing also makes it easier to see the tree’s structure without leaves in the way. However, dead or dangerous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Some trees have specific timing requirements – for example, oak trees shouldn’t be pruned during spring and early summer to prevent oak wilt disease. We can advise you on the best timing for your specific trees and situation during our assessment.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work?

Yes, Competition Tree, Inc. is fully licensed and insured for all tree care services in New York. We carry liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage, which protects you from financial responsibility if accidents occur on your property. Our licensing ensures we meet state requirements for tree care professionals. We’re happy to provide proof of insurance before starting any work. This coverage is crucial for tree work since it involves heavy equipment, climbing, and potential property damage risks. Never hire tree services that can’t provide current insurance certificates – you could be liable for injuries or damage.
