About Hennessey Tree & Landscape
Your trusted tree service and landscaping partner in Oxford and Central Connecticut since 2019. When you need reliable tree removal, emergency services, or complete property maintenance, you’re calling Joe.
Meet Joe Hennessey – Your Local Tree Removal Expert
You know that sinking feeling when you look out your window and see a massive tree leaning toward your house after last night’s storm? Or when you realize that beautiful oak tree you love is actually a safety hazard that needs to come down? That’s exactly why Joe Hennessey started Hennessey Tree & Landscape in 2019.
Joe’s passion for landscaping started when he was just 10 years old, snowplowing neighbors’ driveways around Oxford. What began as a kid wanting to help his community grew into something much bigger. After graduating from Southern Connecticut State University with a Bachelor’s in Business Management, Joe decided to turn his lifelong love of outdoor work into a full-service tree and landscape company that treats every property like it’s his own.
“When you call us, you’re not just getting a crew,” Joe explains. “You’re getting me personally overseeing every single project. I’m there to make sure the work is done right, your property is protected, and you know exactly what’s happening every step of the way.” This hands-on approach has earned Joe and his team over 28 five-star Google reviews and a perfect 5-star rating on Facebook, with customers repeatedly mentioning Joe by name in their testimonials.
Why Oxford and Central Connecticut Homeowners Choose Us
Let’s be honest. You’ve probably had contractors show up late, give you a runaround about pricing, or worse, disappear after you’ve paid them. Maybe you’ve called tree services that won’t return your calls, or landscaping companies that promise the world but deliver headaches instead.
That’s not how we operate. When Joe founded Hennessey Tree & Landscape, he made a simple promise to every customer in Oxford, Seymour, Ansonia, Shelton, Monroe, and throughout Central Connecticut: honest estimates with no surprises, quality work that protects your property, and the kind of personal service where you can actually reach the owner when you need him.
What makes us different isn’t just that we’re licensed and insured (though we are), or that we offer 24/7 emergency services (which we do). It’s that when you hire Hennessey Tree & Landscape, you’re hiring Joe. He’s involved in every project, from the initial estimate to the final cleanup. You’ll have his direct contact information, and when something urgent comes up, you won’t be transferred through a call center or left waiting for days.
Our customers in Naugatuck, Woodbridge, Prospect, Newtown, Derby, and Bethany know they can count on us because we’re their neighbors. We live here, work here, and care about this community. When Mrs. Johnson in Bridgewater calls at 2 AM because a tree fell across her driveway, we’re there. When the Smiths in Roxbury need their long driveway plowed before they can get to work, we handle it.
Our Mission: Treating Every Property Like Our Own
You shouldn’t have to worry about whether your contractor will show up, do quality work, or clean up properly. You shouldn’t have to chase people down for estimates or wonder if you’re being overcharged. And you definitely shouldn’t have to deal with tree emergencies on your own.
That’s why everything we do comes back to one simple principle: we treat every property like it’s our own. When Joe walks your property with you, he’s looking at it through the eyes of a homeowner who understands what it means to invest in and care for your most valuable asset. He knows that tree between your house and your neighbor’s isn’t just “another job,” it’s a major decision that affects your safety, your property value, and your peace of mind.
This approach means we take time to explain what we’re seeing, why we recommend certain solutions, and exactly how we’ll complete the work while protecting your landscaping, your home, and everything else you care about. It means we clean up completely when we’re done, leaving your property better than we found it. And it means we stand behind our work with the confidence that comes from doing things right the first time.
Our goal isn’t just to remove a tree or plow your driveway. It’s to be the company you call whenever you need help with your property, knowing you’ll get straight answers, fair prices, and work you can trust.
Comprehensive Tree and Landscape Services
When you need tree work, landscaping services, or emergency help with your property, you want one company that can handle everything professionally. Here’s what Hennessey Tree & Landscape offers throughout Central Connecticut:
Our tree removal services handle everything from small ornamental trees to massive oaks that require specialized equipment and expertise. We focus specifically on safe, complete tree removal (we refer pruning, trimming, and health assessments to licensed arborists, as these services require different licensing). When storms hit Central Connecticut, our 24/7 emergency tree services get fallen trees off your roof, out of your driveway, and away from power lines quickly and safely.
Our land clearing and property maintenance services include stump grinding and removal, hedge trimming and maintenance, property expansion and brush removal, forest mulching, and complete land clearing for new construction or property improvements. We handle the excavation services, grading, and drainage solutions that make your property functional and attractive.
For ongoing property care, we provide lawn renovation and maintenance, mulch delivery and installation, and topsoil delivery and grading. When winter arrives in Central Connecticut, our snow removal services and ice management keep your driveways and walkways safe and accessible. We also construct retaining walls to manage slopes and create usable space on challenging properties.
Every service comes with Joe’s personal attention and our commitment to quality work at fair prices. Whether you need emergency storm response or planned property improvements, we have the equipment, experience, and dedication to get it done right.
Licensed, Insured, and Committed to Your Safety
Tree work and property maintenance aren’t just about having the right equipment. They’re about having the knowledge, experience, and proper credentials to do the work safely and correctly. When you hire Hennessey Tree & Landscape, you’re working with a fully licensed and insured company that takes safety seriously.
Joe’s business education, combined with years of hands-on experience, means we understand both the business side and the technical aspects of tree and landscape services. We maintain all required licensing, comprehensive insurance coverage, and safety certifications to protect our team and your property.
Safety considerations guide every decision we make, from how we approach a complex tree removal near your house to ensuring our equipment operators have clear sight lines when grading your property. We use proper personal protective equipment, follow industry safety standards, and take the time to do things right rather than rushing through jobs.
Our insurance coverage includes liability protection and workers’ compensation, so you’re never at risk if something unexpected happens. We’re happy to provide proof of insurance and licensing because we know that responsible contractors should be transparent about their credentials.
This commitment to proper business practices extends to how we estimate jobs, communicate with customers, and stand behind our work. When we give you a quote, it’s honest and complete. When we schedule work, we show up on time. And when we finish a project, you can be confident it was done correctly by professionals who take pride in their work.
Serving Central Connecticut Communities Since 2019
From our headquarters in Oxford, we proudly serve homeowners and businesses throughout Central Connecticut’s most beautiful communities. Each area we work in has its own character, challenges, and needs, and we’ve gotten to know them all.
In Oxford, Seymour, and Ansonia, we work with homeowners who appreciate reliable service and fair pricing. The mix of suburban neighborhoods and rural properties means we handle everything from urban tree removals to large-scale land clearing projects. These communities value contractors who show up when promised and do quality work.
Shelton’s growing commercial sector and upscale residential areas require a higher level of professional service. We work with property managers, HOAs, and homeowners who expect detailed communication, careful work, and complete cleanup. Our experience with complex commercial projects and luxury residential properties makes us the right choice for Shelton’s discerning customers.
Monroe’s larger estates and wooded properties often require specialized equipment and expertise for major tree removals and land management projects. These customers invest significantly in their properties and want contractors who understand the value of what they’re protecting.
In rural communities like Bridgewater and Roxbury, we work with properties that might not see another contractor for miles. Self-sufficiency and reliability are essential here. When we commit to a project in these areas, customers know we’ll bring everything we need and complete the job without requiring multiple trips or additional resources.
Historic communities like Woodbury and Middlebury require sensitivity to architectural heritage and community standards. We understand that our work affects not just individual properties but the overall character of these special places.
Whether we’re working in Naugatuck’s established neighborhoods, Newtown’s growing subdivisions, or the rural landscapes of Bethany, we adapt our approach to fit each community while maintaining the same high standards of workmanship and customer service that have earned us recognition throughout Central Connecticut.
