What does a tree service company do?
A tree service company takes down trees that have to go and trims the ones that stay. Our work covers tree removal, tree trimming and pruning, palm trimming and stump grinding. When a storm drops a tree on a house or a fence, we cut it off and haul it away. We also clear land and take down small structures like sheds, decks and fences.
Do you take small jobs, like one palm or one stump?
Yes. We will trim a single palm or grind one stump left from an old removal. Small jobs get the same free estimate and the same cleanup as big ones. Call or text with a photo, and we set up a time to look.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Tampa?
Inside Tampa city limits, usually yes. Removing most trees 5 inches or more across, measured 4.5 feet up, takes a city permit. Carrollwood, Westchase and other Tampa addresses outside the city follow Hillsborough County's rules. At a single-family home, the city or county cannot require a permit for a tree documented as an unacceptable risk. That documentation must come from an ISA Certified Arborist or a Florida licensed landscape architect (section 163.045, Florida Statutes). Our Tampa tree permit guide has the details, and we point you to the right office.
Do you do land clearing?
Yes. We do land clearing for house lots and acreage alike. We take the trees down and clear the underbrush by forestry mulching or brush removal. Then we pull or grind the stumps. If a house or a barn is coming next, site preparation gets the cleared lot ready for your builder.
Do you do demolition?
Yes, for small structures. Our demolition work covers fences, decks, sheds and other small outbuildings, plus old slabs and footers. Houses, barns and garages go to a licensed contractor. The permit question and any utility disconnects are sorted out before work starts. We haul the debris off and leave the ground level.
Do you handle storm damage?
Yes. Our emergency tree service covers trees on houses, cars, fences and driveways after a storm. Call or text (813) 293-2948, and we tell you when a crew can be there. We document the damage before we cut. Then we make the site safe and finish the removal. We have worked with homeowners insurance companies on storm jobs. If a power line is down, call the utility first.
What area do you serve?
We work the corridor from Tampa north to Crystal River, across Hillsborough, Pasco, Hernando and Citrus counties. Our shops in South Tampa and Homosassa sit near its two ends. Palm Harbor and Tarpon Springs, in north Pinellas County, are in our area too. The towns we serve include Lutz, Wesley Chapel, New Port Richey, Spring Hill, Brooksville and Inverness.
How much does tree service cost?
We price each job after we look at it. For tree work, the size of the tree and how close it stands to the house set the price. Crane work, tight access, the wood to haul and any stump grinding add to it. For land clearing, the price follows the acreage and how thick the growth is. Call or text (813) 293-2948 for a free estimate, and we put it in writing.
