Our tree service includes everything from routine pruning and trimming to complete tree removal and emergency storm cleanup. Each service is designed to address the specific needs of Suffolk County properties, where coastal weather and soil conditions create unique challenges for tree health.
Tree pruning focuses on removing dead, diseased, or dangerous branches while promoting healthy growth patterns. Tree removal involves safe, controlled takedown of problematic trees with complete stump grinding and debris cleanup. New tree planting includes species selection that thrives in Long Island’s climate.
Emergency services are available when storms damage trees, creating immediate safety hazards. We respond quickly to secure your property and remove dangerous branches or fallen trees. Every service includes thorough cleanup, so you’re not left dealing with debris or damage to your landscape.
Tree removal costs in Mastic typically range from $300 for small trees to $3,000 or more for large, complex removals near structures. The final price depends on tree size, location, access difficulty, and whether stump grinding is included.
Factors that increase costs include trees near power lines, structures, or landscaping that requires extra protection. Emergency removals after storms often cost more due to the urgent nature and additional safety precautions required.
We provide detailed estimates that break down all costs upfront, so you know exactly what you’re paying for with no surprise charges added later.
Late fall through early spring is typically the best time for tree pruning in Suffolk County, when trees are dormant and less susceptible to disease or pest problems. This timing also allows you to see the tree’s structure clearly without leaves blocking the view.
However, dead or dangerous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Some species, like maples and birches, are best pruned in late summer to avoid excessive sap bleeding.
Our professional arborists can determine the optimal timing for your specific trees based on species, health, and your property’s needs. Emergency pruning for storm damage or safety hazards happens year-round when necessary.
Mastic tree removal permits depend on tree size, species, and location on your property. The Town of Brookhaven, which includes Mastic, requires permits for removing trees over certain diameters, particularly those considered significant or heritage trees.
Trees near wetlands, in conservation areas, or protected species may require additional approvals from environmental agencies. Removing trees without proper permits can result in significant fines and legal complications.
We understand local permit requirements and can help determine if permits are needed for your specific situation. We can assist with the permit application process to ensure all work complies with local regulations.
Dangerous trees show warning signs like large dead branches, significant lean toward structures, root damage from construction, or fungal growth indicating internal decay. Cracks in the trunk, hollow sounds when tapped, or branches that have already fallen are immediate red flags.
After severe storms, trees may appear fine but have hidden structural damage that makes them unstable. Trees with root systems compromised by construction, soil changes, or disease can fail without warning, especially during high winds.
Professional tree assessment is crucial because dangerous conditions aren’t always obvious to untrained eyes. Our certified arborists can identify structural problems, disease, or instability that threatens your property and recommend appropriate action before problems become emergencies.
Long Island’s coastal climate and sandy soil favor native species like red oak, white oak, American holly, and eastern red cedar. These trees handle salt spray, wind, and drought conditions better than many non-native varieties.
Avoid fast-growing but weak species like silver maple or tree of heaven, which often fail during storms and can damage property. Popular choices like Japanese maple and dogwood work well in protected locations but may struggle in exposed coastal areas.
We consider your specific property conditions when selecting trees, including soil type, sun exposure, proximity to structures, and maintenance preferences. The right species choice prevents future problems and ensures your landscape investment thrives for decades.
Most residential tree removals in Mastic take 2-6 hours, depending on tree size, location complexity, and access limitations. Simple removals in open areas with good equipment access move quickly, while trees near structures or power lines require more time for safety precautions.
Large trees or multiple removals may require a full day or spread across multiple days. Complex jobs involving crane work, special permits, or coordination with utility companies take longer but ensure safe, proper completion.
We provide realistic time estimates during the initial consultation and keep you informed if conditions require schedule adjustments. Our crew works efficiently while prioritizing safety and property protection over speed.
