Everything Your Trees Need

Tree removal covers everything from small ornamental trees to large oaks that require specialized equipment. We handle the permits, utility coordination, and safe dismantling that protects your home and neighboring properties.

Tree trimming and pruning services keep your trees healthy and attractive. Proper timing and technique matter here. Cut too much or at the wrong time, and you can damage the tree permanently. Our arborists know how each species responds to pruning.

Stump grinding eliminates those unsightly reminders of removed trees. We grind stumps below ground level and fill the area with wood chips. No more mowing around stumps or dealing with new shoots sprouting up.

Emergency tree service means we respond quickly when storms damage trees on your property. Fallen trees blocking driveways, branches on roofs, or trees leaning dangerously all get priority attention.

How much does tree removal cost in North New Hyde Park?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. Small trees under 30 feet typically cost $300-800, while large trees over 60 feet can range from $1,200-3,000 or more. Trees near power lines, close to structures, or in tight spaces cost more due to the specialized equipment and extra care required. We provide free written estimates that break down all costs, so you know exactly what you’re paying for before we start.

When is the best time to trim trees in New York?

Late fall through early spring is ideal for most tree trimming in New York, when trees are dormant and won’t bleed sap. Avoid trimming oaks from April through October to prevent oak wilt disease. Dead or dangerous branches can be removed anytime for safety reasons. Each species has specific timing preferences – maples do best in late fall, while flowering trees should be trimmed right after they bloom to preserve next year’s flowers.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree on my property?

North New Hyde Park has specific regulations about tree removal, especially for larger trees or those in protected areas. Generally, you need permits for trees over a certain diameter or those designated as significant. We handle the permit process for you, including applications and any required documentation. It’s always better to check first – removing protected trees without permits can result in substantial fines and required replacement plantings.

How long does stump grinding take and what's left behind?

Most residential stump grinding takes 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the stump’s size and root system. Large oak or maple stumps with extensive roots take longer than smaller ornamental tree stumps. We grind 6-12 inches below ground level, then fill the area with the resulting wood chips. You can plant grass over it immediately or use the wood chips as mulch. The ground may settle slightly over time as the remaining roots decompose underground.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work in New York?

Yes, Competition Tree, Inc. carries full licensing and insurance coverage required for tree service work in New York. This includes general liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage for our crew. We provide proof of insurance before starting any job. This protects you from liability if accidents occur and ensures you’re working with legitimate professionals who follow industry standards and safety protocols.

What happens if a tree damages my neighbor's property during removal?

Our comprehensive insurance coverage protects against property damage during tree removal work. Before starting any job, we assess potential risks and take precautions to prevent damage to neighboring properties. This includes using ropes and rigging systems to control where branches and trunk sections fall. If unexpected damage occurs despite proper precautions, our liability insurance handles the claims process. We also communicate with neighbors when working near property lines to keep everyone informed.
