You Know That Feeling When a Storm Hits
You’re lying in bed at 3 AM, listening to the wind howl through the trees around your property. Every gust makes you wonder if this is the night that massive oak finally comes down on your roof. Or maybe you’ve been putting off dealing with that dead tree near your driveway because finding a reliable tree service feels overwhelming. You’ve probably called other companies, only to get vague estimates, no-shows, or work that left your property looking worse than before.
That’s exactly why Joe Hennessey started this company in 2019. After watching neighbors struggle with unreliable contractors and overpriced services, he knew Central Connecticut needed a tree service that actually showed up, did quality work, and treated every property like it was their own. As a Southern Connecticut State University graduate with a business degree and a passion for landscaping that started when he was just 10 years old, Joe personally oversees every project to make sure it meets his standards.
What started with Joe plowing neighbors’ driveways as a kid has grown into Central Connecticut’s most trusted tree and landscape service. When you call Hennessey Tree & Landscape, you’re not just getting a crew, you’re getting Joe’s personal commitment to protect your property and give you peace of mind.

Why Central Connecticut Property Owners Choose Joe Hennessey
Here’s what makes working with us different. When you hire most tree services, you never know who’s actually showing up or what kind of work you’ll get. With Hennessey Tree & Landscape, Joe personally handles your estimate and oversees every job. You’re not dealing with a faceless company, you’re working with Joe, and that personal attention shows in everything we do.
Our 28+ five-star Google reviews tell the story better than we can. Customers specifically mention Joe by name because they know they can count on him. When Mrs. Patterson in Oxford needed emergency tree removal after last winter’s ice storm, Joe was there within two hours, even though it was a Sunday evening. When the Johnsons in Shelton wanted to clear trees for their pool installation, Joe walked the property with them, explaining exactly which trees needed to go and which ones they should keep for privacy.
Over the years, we’ve built our reputation on honest estimates with no surprises, quality work that lasts, and treating your property with the same care we’d give our own. We’re fully licensed and insured, but more importantly, we’re the neighbors you can trust when trees threaten everything you’ve worked to build.

Tree Removal is our specialty. Whether you have a dangerous tree threatening your home, dead trees that need to come down, or healthy trees that simply need to go for construction or views, we handle complete tree removal safely and efficiently. Joe’s crew uses proper equipment and techniques to protect your property and surrounding landscape during removal.
Emergency Tree Services available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Central Connecticut storms don’t wait for business hours, and neither do we. When trees fall on your roof, block your driveway, or create safety hazards, we respond immediately to secure your property and remove the danger. Day or night, weekend or holiday, we’re available when emergencies strike.
Stump Grinding and Removal takes care of what’s left behind. Those unsightly stumps don’t just look bad, they’re trip hazards and they take up valuable yard space. Our professional stump grinding equipment removes stumps completely, leaving your property ready for whatever comes next.
Hedge Trimming and Maintenance keeps your property looking sharp. Overgrown hedges make any property look neglected. We trim and shape hedges to maintain their health while giving your property the clean, maintained appearance that protects your investment.

Beyond Trees: Your Complete Property Partner

Most tree companies stop at trees, but your property needs more than that. Joe built Hennessey Tree & Landscape to be your one-stop solution for everything that keeps your property functional, safe, and valuable.
Excavation Services handle the heavy work your property needs. Whether you’re installing a pool, adding an addition, or need site preparation for construction, our excavation team prepares your land properly. We understand Connecticut soil conditions and work with the rocky, challenging terrain that’s common throughout our service area.
Grading Services create proper drainage and level surfaces. Poor grading leads to water problems, erosion, and foundation issues. We grade your property to direct water away from buildings, create usable flat areas, and solve drainage problems before they damage your investment.
Drainage Solutions stop water from destroying your property. Connecticut’s wet seasons and winter snow melt can create serious water problems. We install drainage systems, create proper slopes, and redirect water to protect your foundation, basement, and landscape.
Lawn Renovation and Maintenance brings your yard back to life. Dead grass, bare spots, and thin lawns make your property look neglected. We renovate lawns with proper grading, quality soil, and the right seed for Connecticut’s climate, then provide ongoing maintenance to keep it healthy.
Mulch Delivery and Installation protects your landscape investment. Proper mulching conserves water, prevents weeds, and gives your beds a finished, professional appearance. We deliver quality mulch and install it properly to give your property that well-maintained look.
Topsoil Delivery and Grading provides the foundation for healthy lawns and gardens. Poor soil means poor results, no matter what you plant. We deliver quality topsoil and grade it properly to give your lawn and landscape the foundation they need to thrive.

When Connecticut Weather Strikes: Snow and Ice Management
Central Connecticut winters mean one thing: you need reliable snow removal you can count on. When the forecast calls for snow, you don’t want to wonder if your driveway will be plowed or if your business parking lot will be accessible.
Snow Removal Services keep you moving all winter long. We plow residential driveways and commercial parking lots, always staying ahead of the storm so you can get to work, customers can reach your business, and life doesn’t stop because of snow. Our equipment handles everything from light dustings to major blizzards.
Ice Management protects against winter’s biggest safety hazard. Black ice and icy surfaces create liability issues for businesses and safety hazards for families. We apply ice control materials strategically to prevent ice formation and keep surfaces safe for walking and driving.
Emergency Storm Response gets you back to normal fast. When winter storms bring down trees and power lines, create ice dams, or block access to your property, we respond immediately to clear debris, remove hazards, and restore access. Our 24/7 availability means Connecticut storms never catch us off guard.
Retaining Wall Construction solves slope and erosion problems that winter weather makes worse. Connecticut’s hilly terrain and freeze-thaw cycles create erosion and slope stability issues. We build retaining walls that protect your property, create usable space, and add value to your investment.
Serving Central Connecticut Communities with Local Knowledge

Based in Oxford, we serve the communities we live in and are nearby. Joe knows Central Connecticut properties because these are his stomping grounds. From the historic estates in Woodbridge to the working-class neighborhoods in Ansonia, from the rural properties in Bridgewater to the suburban developments in Middlebury, we understand what each community needs.
In Oxford, where we’re headquartered, we handle everything from emergency tree removal on the large wooded lots that define the town to snow removal for the long driveways that connect homes to the road. Seymour’s valley location means storm damage and drainage issues, problems we solve regularly for our neighbors there.


Shelton’s mix of residential and commercial properties keeps us busy with both family homes and business facilities. Monroe’s affluent properties demand the highest quality work, which is exactly what Joe delivers on every project. The rural estates in Bridgewater and Roxbury require different skills than suburban Middlebury or Southbury, but we handle them all with the same attention to detail.
Woodbury’s historic properties need special care to preserve their character while addressing modern needs. Naugatuck’s post-industrial landscape presents unique challenges we’re equipped to handle. Prospect’s hilly terrain creates drainage and access issues we solve regularly. Newtown’s active construction means constant land clearing and site preparation work. Derby’s urban environment requires different approaches than Bethany’s rural settings, but we adapt our services to each community’s needs.
When you call Hennessey Tree & Landscape CT, you’re working with neighbors who understand Central Connecticut properties, weather, and the challenges that come with both.
