Services
Tree and Land Services
Eight services across seventeen Connecticut towns, split between the tree work and the land work. Every one is quoted from the ground before it is booked, and each says plainly what it involves, what moves the price, and where the boundaries are.
Hennessey Tree & Landscape does two kinds of work. Tree work means taking trees down: removal, emergency response after a failure, storm cleanup at scale, stump grinding, and forest mulching. Land work means changing what the ground is doing: clearing it, pushing brush back off a house, and rebuilding a lawn.
One boundary runs through all of it, and it is worth knowing before you read any further. We remove trees and we do land work. We do not prune, trim, plant or assess tree health, because those need arborist licensing this business does not hold. A question about whether a living tree can be saved goes to a licensed arborist, and we will say so rather than take the job.
01
Tree services
Five services, from a single dead tree to the morning after a storm.
Tree Removal
Dead, damaged and hazardous trees taken down and cleared. Most residential removals are a few hours to a full day, and the quote names what moves the price on your property.
Emergency Tree Services 24/7
One tree that has become dangerous today: on the house, the car, or the only way out. Answered and triaged around the clock, with the utility going first wherever a wire is involved.
Emergency Storm Response
The aftermath at scale, when it is not one tree. Make-safe first, cleanup second, priced as two phases so you are not paying emergency rates to rake for a week.
Stump Grinding and Removal
The stump taken below ground level, quoted separately from the tree because the ground decides it. Rock or old buried fill can turn a short grind into a long one, and none of it shows on the surface.
Forest Mulching
Growth ground down in place and left as a mulch layer, with nothing hauled away. Best for an overgrown edge, an old field, or a boundary you can only see in winter.
02
Land services
Three services for the ground itself.
Land Clearing
Trees, brush and vegetation taken off the site so the ground can be built on, improved or cleaned up at scale. The wetlands question is settled before the machines are booked.
Property Expansion and Brush Removal
Reclaiming usable yard around a house: a route that has closed over, a strip lost to thorns, or a corner you want for a shed or a patio. The material leaves with us.
Lawn Renovation
Fixing why the grass failed rather than seeding over it. Soil test first, then the grade and drainage, then seed or sod. Late summer into early fall is the season that works here.
03
Which clearing service do you actually need?
Three of those sound alike and are genuinely different jobs, so the wrong one costs you money. The difference is method and outcome rather than scale.
Forest mulching grinds what is growing and leaves it on the ground as mulch. Land clearing takes the material away and brings the ground toward bare for building on. Brush removal reclaims yard around a house and hauls the material off. If you are not sure which one your job is, describe what you want the ground to look like afterwards and we will tell you which it is before quoting.
