Tree Removal Process Manhasset

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we assess the situation. We look at the tree, check for hazards, and figure out the safest way to handle the job without damaging your property or landscaping. If it’s near power lines or structures, we plan the removal strategy carefully.

Then we handle the actual work. Tree removal gets done in sections if needed to control where everything falls. Trimming and pruning get done with proper cuts that promote healthy growth. Stump grinding goes deep enough that you can plant grass or whatever else you want in that spot.

Finally, we clean up completely. All debris gets chipped, hauled away, or stacked neatly if you want to keep the wood. Your lawn gets raked clean. We don’t leave you with a mess to deal with after we’re gone.

Everything Your Trees Need

Tree removal handles the dangerous stuff – dead trees, storm-damaged trees, or healthy trees that are just in the wrong place. We cut them down safely and remove them completely, including the stump if you want it gone.

Tree trimming and pruning keep your healthy trees looking good and growing properly. We remove dead branches, thin overcrowded areas, and shape trees so they don’t interfere with power lines or your house. Proper pruning also prevents weak branch attachments that break during storms.

Stump grinding gets rid of those leftover stumps that make your yard look unfinished. We grind them below ground level and clean up the wood chips. Emergency tree service means we’re available when storms hit and you need immediate help with fallen trees or dangerous hanging branches.

How much does tree removal cost in Manhasset?

Tree removal costs depend on the size, location, and complexity of the job. A small tree in an open area might cost $300-600, while a large oak near your house could run $1,500-3,000 or more. Trees near power lines, structures, or in tight spaces cost more because they require careful sectional removal. The price includes cutting, removal, and basic cleanup. Stump grinding is usually separate and adds $100-400 depending on stump size. We provide free estimates so you know exactly what you’re paying before we start.

Do you clean up all the debris after tree work?

Yes, complete cleanup is included in our tree service. We remove all branches, logs, and debris from your property unless you specifically want to keep some of the wood. Small branches and leaves get chipped and hauled away. Larger logs can be cut into firewood lengths and stacked neatly if you want them, or removed completely if you don’t. We rake the work area clean and make sure your lawn isn’t left with scattered debris. The only thing you should notice after we’re done is that your tree problem is solved.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work?

Absolutely. We carry full liability insurance and workers compensation coverage. Tree work is inherently risky – both for the workers and for your property. Our insurance protects you if something goes wrong during the job. We’re also licensed for tree service work in New York. Before we start any job, we can provide proof of insurance and licensing if you want to see it. Given the value of properties in Manhasset, working with uninsured tree services is a risk you shouldn’t take.

Can you handle emergency tree service after storms?

Yes, we provide emergency tree service for storm damage situations. This includes removing trees that have fallen across driveways, are leaning dangerously against houses, or have large branches hanging precariously after wind damage. We prioritize emergency calls that involve immediate safety hazards. Emergency service typically costs more than regular scheduled work due to the urgency and often more difficult working conditions. We’ll secure the immediate danger first, then handle complete cleanup once the safety issues are resolved.

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

Late fall through early spring is generally the best time for most tree trimming in our area. Trees are dormant, so trimming causes less stress and there’s lower risk of disease transmission. You can also see the tree structure clearly without leaves. However, dead branches should be removed any time of year for safety. Some trees like maples are best trimmed in late summer to avoid excessive bleeding. Oak trees shouldn’t be trimmed during April through October to prevent oak wilt disease. We can advise you on the best timing for your specific trees.

How deep do you grind stumps?

We typically grind stumps 6-8 inches below ground level, which is deep enough for most purposes like planting grass or installing landscaping. If you’re planning to plant another tree in the same spot, we can grind deeper for an additional cost. The grinding process also removes the major surface roots around the stump. We clean up the wood chips and can either haul them away or leave them for you to use as mulch. Some smaller roots may remain underground, but they’ll decompose naturally over time without causing problems.
