Everything Your Trees Need

Tree removal for dangerous, dead, or unwanted trees. We handle everything from small ornamentals to massive oaks, safely and completely. Emergency removal available when storms create immediate hazards.

Tree trimming and pruning to keep healthy trees growing properly. Strategic cuts that improve tree health, prevent future problems, and maintain the shape you want. No hack jobs that damage the tree long-term.

Stump grinding eliminates those ugly reminders and prevents new growth. We grind below grade so you can plant grass, flowers, or whatever you want in that spot. Wood chipping services turn debris into useful mulch for your landscaping.

How much does tree removal cost in Lake Ronkonkoma?

Tree removal costs depend on size, location, and complexity, but most residential jobs in Lake Ronkonkoma range from $500 to $2,500. A small tree near your driveway costs less than a massive oak hanging over your house. We provide detailed written estimates that break down exactly what you’re paying for. Emergency removals after storms may cost more due to urgency and hazardous conditions. The price includes complete removal and cleanup – not just cutting the tree down and leaving you with a mess.

Do you provide emergency tree service after storms?

Yes, we respond to emergency tree situations throughout Lake Ronkonkoma and surrounding areas. When storms bring down trees or leave them hanging dangerously, we prioritize calls based on immediate safety threats. If a tree is on your house, blocking your driveway, or creating a hazard, we’ll get there as quickly as possible. Emergency response may involve additional costs due to after-hours work and dangerous conditions, but we’ll explain pricing upfront. We also help with insurance documentation when storm damage is involved.

Should I trim my trees myself or hire professionals?

Hire professionals for anything beyond small branch pruning you can reach from the ground. Tree trimming involves understanding tree biology, proper cutting techniques, and safety procedures that most homeowners don’t have. Improper cuts can damage or kill trees, and working near power lines or at height creates serious injury risks. Professional tree trimming also requires specialized equipment and insurance coverage. DIY tree work often costs more in the long run when you factor in equipment rental, potential property damage, or having to hire professionals to fix mistakes.

How long does stump grinding take?

Most residential stump grinding takes 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on stump size and root system complexity. A typical 12-18 inch diameter stump usually takes about an hour to grind completely below grade. Larger stumps or those with extensive root systems take longer. Multiple stumps on the same property are more efficient since our equipment is already on site. We grind 6-8 inches below ground level so you can plant grass or other vegetation over the area. The process creates wood chips that we can leave for your use as mulch or haul away.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work?

Yes, we carry full licensing and insurance coverage for all tree service work in Lake Ronkonkoma and throughout Long Island. This includes general liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. We provide proof of insurance before starting any job because tree work involves significant risks to property and people. Hiring uninsured tree services puts you liable for injuries or damage that occur on your property. Our insurance protects both you and our crew, and our licensing ensures we meet professional standards for tree care work.

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

Late fall through early spring is generally best for most tree trimming in the Lake Ronkonkoma area, when trees are dormant and won’t experience growth stress from pruning. However, dead or dangerous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Some species have specific timing requirements – oak trees shouldn’t be pruned during growing season due to disease risks, while fruit trees benefit from late winter pruning. Emergency trimming after storms happens when necessary. We’ll advise you on optimal timing for your specific trees and situation during our assessment.
