    FAQs

    At Dragonetti Tree Removal, we provide transparent pricing for all removal services. Our process starts with a free in-person estimate, where our arborists assess the tree’s size, location, and removal requirements.

    • Arborist Fee: A flat $500 arborist fee applies to all removals. This covers the initial consultation and assessment by our certified arborists.
    • Final Cost: The total cost of removal is determined after the estimate, based on factors like tree height, accessibility, and required services.

    Yes, tree removal in Manhattan often requires a permit. We offer a full permitting service for $250, which includes:

    • Preparing and submitting all necessary paperwork.
    • Communicating with the city on your behalf.
    • Providing guidance if you prefer to handle the permit yourself.

    While we ensure everything is submitted correctly, final approval is up to the City. Factors such as the tree’s location, condition, and local regulations may influence the decision.

    In some Manhattan locations, safe removal requires limited access to sidewalks or curb space. Dragonetti Tree Removal plans logistics carefully and follows city guidelines for safe operation while minimizing inconvenience to residents, businesses, and pedestrians.

    The timeline for tree removal depends on factors like the tree’s size, location, and permit approval. In general:

    • Small tree removals can often be completed within a few hours.
    • Larger or more complex removals may take a full day or more.
    • If a permit is required, approval timelines vary based on city processing times.

    Once your permit (if needed) is approved, we schedule the removal.

    Before scheduling tree removal or major pruning in Manhattan, it’s a good idea to review your property’s title survey. This helps you verify exactly where your property lines are and determine if the tree in question is fully on your property. If the tree sits partly on city-owned property or is near public sidewalks, you’ll likely need a permit from the city before starting any work. At Dragonetti, we offer complete tree removal permit services.

    Yes. Trees growing in planters or raised beds often have restricted root systems that can compromise stability over time. Dragonetti Tree Removal carefully assesses these conditions and uses controlled removal methods to prevent damage to waterproofing, drainage systems, or structural elements beneath the planter.

    Yes. Manhattan properties frequently include courtyards, rooftop planters, or interior garden spaces with limited access. Dragonetti Tree Removal uses specialized equipment and controlled removal techniques to safely dismantle trees in confined or elevated environments, ensuring surrounding structures and finishes are protected throughout the process.
