Professional Tree Removal Services

Your Property Protected, Your Worries Gone

You shouldn’t have to worry about that dead tree falling on your house during the next storm. Or deal with contractors who leave your yard looking like a disaster zone after they’re done.

When we handle your tree removal, stump grinding, or pruning, you get the job done completely the first time. That means proper equipment, clean cuts that won’t damage your remaining trees, and total debris cleanup before we leave.

Your neighbors will notice the difference. More importantly, you’ll sleep better knowing your property is safe and your investment is protected. No half-finished jobs, no surprise charges, no wondering if the work was done right.

We Know Trees and We Know Long Island

Competition Tree has been handling tree service throughout Nassau County for years. We understand the specific challenges Long Island homeowners face – from nor’easters that bring down massive oaks to the unique soil conditions that affect root systems here.

You’re not getting a fly-by-night operation or a crew that learned tree work last week. Our team carries full licensing and insurance because your property matters too much to risk it with amateurs.

We’ve seen what happens when tree work goes wrong, and we’ve built our reputation on making sure it goes right the first time.

Tree Service Process

Straightforward Process, Professional Results Every Time

First, we assess your trees and give you a clear, written estimate with no hidden fees. You’ll know exactly what work needs to be done and why, plus what it’s going to cost before we start.

When we arrive for the job, we set up proper safety barriers and use professional-grade equipment designed for the specific work your trees require. Whether it’s precision pruning to save a valuable specimen or complete removal of a dangerous tree, we handle each cut strategically.

The job isn’t finished until your property is cleaner than when we arrived. All debris gets removed, stumps are ground to below grade level, and any disturbed areas are restored. You get your property back in better condition, not worse.

Everything Your Trees Need, Done Right

Our tree service covers the full spectrum of what Long Island homeowners actually need. Tree removal for dangerous or unwanted trees, with complete stump grinding so you can replant or landscape immediately.

Tree trimming and pruning that follows proper arboricultural standards – not the hack jobs that leave your trees vulnerable to disease and storm damage. We understand which branches to remove and which ones keep your trees healthy and strong.

Emergency storm damage response when you need it most. When that oak comes down across your driveway at 2 AM, you need a crew that can respond quickly and handle the situation safely. Wood chipping service turns debris into useful mulch instead of waste heading to the landfill.

How much does tree removal cost in Saddle Rock Estates?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. A typical residential tree removal in Saddle Rock Estates ranges from $500 for smaller trees to $2,000+ for large specimens near structures. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs upfront – no surprises when the job is done. Factors that affect pricing include tree height, trunk diameter, proximity to buildings, and access for our equipment. Emergency storm damage removal may carry premium pricing due to the urgent response required.
Yes, we respond to emergency tree situations throughout Nassau County, including storm damage, fallen trees blocking driveways, and trees threatening structures. Emergency calls get priority scheduling, often same-day response depending on weather conditions and safety factors. We carry the proper equipment to handle emergency situations safely, including trees that have fallen on houses, cars, or power lines. Keep in mind that emergency tree work requires coordination with utility companies if power lines are involved – we’ll help navigate that process to get your property cleared safely.
Complete debris cleanup is included in every job we do. This means all branches, logs, and wood chips get removed from your property unless you specifically request to keep materials for firewood or mulch. We also rake and clean the work area, so your yard looks better than when we started. Stump grinding includes removal of all wood chips and filling the hole with topsoil. Many homeowners are surprised by how much debris tree work creates – that’s exactly why we handle the complete cleanup as part of our standard service rather than an expensive add-on.
Yes, Competition Tree carries full licensing and comprehensive insurance coverage including general liability and workers compensation. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any work on your property. This protects you from liability if accidents occur and ensures you’re working with legitimate professionals, not unlicensed operators. Tree work involves significant risks – heavy equipment, working at height, and potential property damage. Never hire tree services that can’t provide current insurance certificates. The small savings isn’t worth the massive liability risk if something goes wrong on your property.
The optimal timing for tree trimming depends on the tree species and your goals. For most Long Island trees, late fall through early spring (November through March) is ideal because trees are dormant and won’t lose sap from cuts. This timing also reduces stress on the tree and minimizes disease risk. However, dead or dangerous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Storm-damaged trees need prompt attention to prevent further damage. Oak trees have specific timing requirements to avoid oak wilt disease. We’ll recommend the best timing for your specific trees and situation during our assessment.
Most residential stump grinding takes 30 minutes to 2 hours per stump, depending on size and root system complexity. Small stumps (under 12 inches diameter) typically take 30-45 minutes, while large stumps can require several hours. We grind stumps 6-8 inches below ground level so you can plant grass or new landscaping immediately. The process includes cleanup of all wood chips and backfilling with topsoil. Multiple stumps can usually be handled in a single visit. Access for our equipment affects timing – stumps in tight spaces or behind fences take longer than those with clear access for our machinery.
