Trusted by Ashville property owners for tree removal, careful pruning, stump grinding & complete plant health care throughout New York.
Every tree service you need, delivered by trained arborists who know the Ashville area.
Round-the-clock emergency tree service for any tree crisis. We respond at all hours with the equipment and arborist expertise to handle the most dangerous tree situations safely and efficiently.
Complete lot clearing with the right equipment for the scale — track loaders, chippers, brush mulchers, and chainsaw crews. Fast, efficient, and priced per acre rather than per tree.
Professional tree installation by arborists who know what they are doing — proper depth, mulch ring, watering instructions, and species selection that matches your soil, sun, and space.
Mechanical and hand-dug tree transplanting for trees up to large caliper sizes. We root-prune in advance when possible, lift with proper soil mass, and re-plant with deep watering protocols.
Aesthetic trimming that shapes the canopy and clears branches away from rooflines, power lines, and walkways. Our crews work with rope rigging to keep the work clean and the property undamaged.
Professional crown reduction that brings the canopy down proportionally while preserving tree structure. We use proper reduction cuts to lateral branches the tree can recover from, never harmful topping.
Full-service tree takedowns from initial assessment through final cleanup. Our arborists handle everything — rigging the canopy down piece by piece, removing the trunk, grinding the stump, and clearing all debris.
Complete deadwood removal from large mature trees. Our climbers go through the canopy systematically, identifying and removing every dead branch worth taking — safer trees, healthier appearance.
Professional crown thinning that improves tree health and reduces storm damage risk. We remove select branches throughout the canopy — never lion-tailing, never over-thinning that causes stress.
Expert removal of leaning, decaying, or structurally unsound trees before they fail. Our arborists evaluate root health, trunk integrity, and lean angle to identify true hazards — then remove them safely.
Tree cabling and bracing services by ISA-trained arborists. We assess the structural defect, design appropriate hardware placement, and install cables that prevent tree failure without strangling growth.
Storm damage tree service to clear your property after severe weather. Our crews handle fallen trees, hanging limbs, and brush cleanup — large-scale or single-tree, residential or commercial.
Cost-effective stump grinding that takes the visible stump 6 to 12 inches below grade. Fast and efficient — ideal when you need to mow, replant grass, or simply get rid of the eyesore.
Skilled hedge and shrub work that maintains shape, health, and curb appeal. We use sharp tools, proper timing for each species, and full debris cleanup on every visit.
Specialized takedown of dead trees that have become brittle and unpredictable. We use crane assistance and advanced rigging because deadwood does not behave like live wood under load — safety-first work.
Selective canopy planing to level uneven growth and refine tree silhouettes. We work with the natural tree form rather than against it, balancing aesthetics with long-term tree health.
Arborist consulting for property owners, attorneys, HOAs, and developers. Detailed written reports backed by ISA training and decades of arborist experience — the documentation you need, when you need it.
Professional tree fertilization that delivers nutrients where roots can actually use them. Surface fertilizer feeds the lawn — deep-root injection feeds the tree. Real plant health care, not just spreading granules.
Tree pest treatment by arborists who understand insect biology. From emerald ash borer trunk injections to scale soil drenches, we choose the right method, the right timing, and the right product.
Effective tree disease treatment that targets the actual pathogen — not generic spray-and-pray approaches. We diagnose first, treat appropriately, and avoid unnecessary chemical applications.
Professional pruning that improves tree health, structure, and longevity. We selectively remove problem branches, reduce wind sail where appropriate, and leave the tree balanced and ready to thrive for years.
Total stump and root removal for situations where grinding is not enough. We handle the excavation, removal, back-fill, and final grading — leaving you a clean site ready for whatever comes next.
Tree work is among the most dangerous trades in the country, and the difference between a clean takedown and a disaster comes down to rigging, equipment, and crew training. B. Haney and Sons Arborists invests heavily in all three at every Ashville property — ANSI Z133 safety standards, redundant tie-in points, proper rope rigging on every cut, and equipment sized exactly right for the job.
Our Ashville, NY arborists work with bucket trucks, climbing gear, rigging blocks, chippers, and stump grinders — choosing the right tool for each situation. Whether it is a routine prune or an emergency takedown over a Ashville structure, every B. Haney and Sons Arborists tree job is engineered for safety first, efficiency second, and quality cleanup as the standard.
Here is what sets B. Haney and Sons Arborists apart from other tree services in Ashville.
Standard service includes hauling all branches and brush, chipping the small wood, raking the work area, and leaving your property cleaner than we found it. No surprise debris-removal fees.
Our crews are led by arborists trained to ISA standards — meaning every pruning cut, rigging plan, and treatment recommendation is grounded in real arborist science, not chainsaw guesswork.
Storms, fallen trees, and trees on houses do not wait for business hours and neither do we. Our emergency crews respond around the clock — holidays, weekends, and middle of the night.
Most emergency calls are answered live and our crews can typically reach your property within 1 to 4 hours. Speed matters when a tree is on a roof or hanging dangerously after a storm.
We carry on a tree care tradition rooted in Lombard, Illinois that began in 1940 — bringing decades of arborist knowledge and old-school workmanship to every job we touch.
Common questions about tree care in Ashville, NY.
Warning signs in Ashville trees include large dead branches, mushrooms or conks at the base (indicating root rot), bark falling off in sheets, hollow trunk cavities, sudden lean, recent root disturbance, and crown dieback. A live tree may still be hazardous due to structural defects. Our arborists can perform a paid risk assessment with a written report, or include a basic visual evaluation with any free quote.
The stump can stay in Ashville if you do not mind it visually and you are not replanting in that exact spot. However, stumps attract carpenter ants and termites, become tripping hazards, interfere with mowing, and may sprout new growth. Stump grinding takes the stump 6 to 12 inches below grade — fast and inexpensive. Full stump removal extracts the root ball — slower and more expensive but sometimes necessary for new construction in Ashville.
Tree removal costs in Ashville typically range from $400 to $1,800 for standard residential trees and $2,000 to $6,000 or more for very large trees, hazardous trees over structures, or trees requiring crane assistance. Pricing depends on tree size, species, location relative to buildings and power lines, and whether stump removal is included. We provide free on-site estimates with detailed, written quotes before any work begins.
Tree removal permits in Ashville depend on local ordinances, the tree species, the trunk diameter, and whether the tree is on private property or in the public right-of-way. Some New York municipalities protect heritage trees, certain native species, or street trees, while others require no permit for private-property removals. We check local rules before quoting and pull permits on your behalf when required.
Absolutely. Tree work is high-risk by nature, and any contractor cutting trees on your Ashville property should carry general liability insurance and workers compensation coverage. B. Haney and Sons Arborists maintains both, and we will provide certificates of insurance on request before starting work. Hiring uninsured tree cutters is one of the most common ways Ashville property owners end up with serious financial liability.
In most New York jurisdictions, Ashville property owners have the legal right to trim neighbor branches that cross the property line, but only up to the property line and only without damaging the tree health. We always recommend a friendly conversation with the neighbor first and proper documentation. B. Haney and Sons Arborists can perform the work and provide written records — but the legal questions belong with you, not us.
Real reviews from property owners we have served across the country.
"The arborist who came out for the estimate spent 45 minutes walking the property and explaining what each tree needed. No upselling, no pressure, just honest advice. The pruning crew was equally professional. Great experience start to finish."
"I have been using B. Haney for our property for years. They prune our maples every other winter and the trees have never looked healthier. There is something to be said for hiring an arborist company that has been doing this since 1940 — the experience shows in every cut."
"The pruning work on our heritage oak was exceptional. The arborist explained which limbs needed to come out for tree health and which to leave for canopy structure. Cuts were made cleanly at the proper collar locations. Tree looks beautiful and well-balanced."
