Stump Removal & Stump Grinding
Stump removal services help restore the appearance, safety, and usability of your yard after a tree has been removed.

Our team provides efficient stump removal solutions to completely eliminate unwanted stumps and surface roots.
Using professional-grade stump grinding equipment, we remove stumps below ground level with minimal disruption to surrounding landscaping. This process allows the area to be leveled, replanted, or prepared for future construction or hardscaping projects. Our stump removal services are suitable for residential and commercial properties and can handle stumps of all sizes. We take care of the cleanup, leaving your property clean and ready for use. If you’re ready to reclaim your outdoor space, trust our experts for reliable, safe, and effective stump removal.
Tree Pruning & Trimming
Tree trimming and pruning services are essential for maintaining healthy, attractive, and safe trees on your property. Proper trimming removes dead, damaged, or overgrown branches, helping trees grow stronger while reducing the risk of falling limbs and storm damage.
Our experienced team uses industry-approved pruning techniques to improve tree structure, enhance natural shape, and promote long-term health. We carefully evaluate each tree to determine the best approach, whether it’s routine maintenance, crown thinning, or hazard reduction. Tree trimming also improves sunlight exposure, airflow, and overall curb appeal for both residential and commercial properties. All work is performed with strict safety standards and professional equipment to protect your home and landscaping. If your trees need attention, trust our professionals to keep them healthy, safe, and looking their best.

Our team evaluates tree health, root systems, soil conditions, and surrounding factors to create customized preservation plans. We use proven methods such as root zone protection, structural pruning, soil management, and monitoring to reduce stress and prevent damage during and after projects. Tree preservation is ideal for residential and commercial properties, construction sites, and land development projects where protecting existing trees is a priority. All work is performed using industry best practices and safety standards.
If you want to protect your trees and ensure their long-term health, our tree preservation services provide professional care you can trust.

Our Approach
Services & What Sets Us Apart
Tree work generally falls into three categories: pruning & preservation, tree removal, and stump grinding. While many companies offer these services, the difference lies in how the work is performed, who performs it, and how accountable the company is from start to finish.
With over four decades in the arboriculture industry, we have built our process around addressing the most common complaints homeowners share after hiring other tree companies.
No Subcontractors — Full Accountability
One of the most frequent issues we hear is that previous companies relied on subcontracted climbers, subcontracted stump grinders, or temporary labor.
We do not operate this way.
- All work is performed by our own trained crew
- We do not use contract climbers
- We do not subcontract stump grinding
- We maintain full control over safety, quality, scheduling, and cleanup
This ensures consistency, accountability, and no unfinished work.
Stump Grinding — Done Properly
Stump grinding is one of the most misunderstood services and a top source of homeowner dissatisfaction.
When equipment access allows, we strongly recommend removing stump grindings down to grade. This allows for:
- Sod installation
- Landscaping
- A level, usable surface
Why This Matters
If grindings are not removed:
- The grinder repeatedly passes through loose material
- Chips are thrown backward
- Roots are often not ground deep enough
- Large stumps frequently require multiple passes
Proper stump removal often requires excavating excess soil and grindings as the work progresses. This takes additional time, but it ensures the stump is actually removed to the depth promised.
Important advice:
If you obtain multiple quotes, confirm whether theremoval of stump grindings is included. Many complaints stem from:
- Stumps not ground deep enough
- Promises to “come back later” that never happen
- Payment made before work is fully complete
We do not accept payment until the job is 100% complete and the client is satisfied.
Underground Utilities & Site Conditions
Stump grinding and excavation may involve underground features such as:
- Irrigation lines
- Drainage systems
- Electrical or communication lines
- Septic components
These items are not visible from the surface. For this reason:
- We are not responsible for unmarked underground utilities
- If locations are known or shown to us, we will make every effort to avoid them
- In some situations, damage may be unavoidable due to root or stump placement
Clients should understand these risks before work begins.
Pre‑Job Walkthrough & Documentation
Before starting any project, we conduct a complete site walkthrough and document:
- Existing damage
- Sensitive areas
- Structures, landscaping, and hardscapes
We photograph or video conditions when appropriate.
Any damage caused by our negligence will be repaired.
We strongly encourage homeowners — regardless of who they hire — to:
- Walk the property with the foreman or estimator before work begins
- Walk the property again before final payment
- Verify stump depth (do not hesitate to probe with a shovel or pitchfork)
This simple step prevents misunderstandings and unresolved complaints.
Property Protection Measures
We take extra precautions to protect your property.
- Paver or decorative driveways are fully covered with:
- 4‑mil plastic
- Plywood protection
- This prevents:
- Tire marks
- Oil drips
- Tree sap
- Sawdust staining
Soft, wet, or low‑lying turf areas are protected with:
- Plywood
- Fiberglass mats, when necessary
We also identify and note:
- Septic tanks
- Drain fields
- Valves
- Known underground risks
Branch Management Tree Care
The Expert Approach to Tree Care in Orlando & Central Florida
Pruning — Clear Goals, Clear Results
Pruning is subject to interpretation, which is why identifying goals before work begins is critical.
Our process includes:
- On‑site discussion with the client
- Photographs of trees and target areas
- Agreement on what will be removed — and what will remain
- Sharing the same information with the entire crew
As we often say:
We can always take more — but we cannot put branches back.
All pruning is performed in accordance with ANSI A300 national pruning standards. We do not:
1. Top trees
2. Leave flush cuts or stubs
3. Over‑thin canopies
4. Use climbing spikes on trees being preserved
Tree Removal & Crane Operations
We own and operate our own crane and have safely removed thousands of trees over the past four decades.
Crane‑assisted removals are often:
- The safest method
- The most efficient
- The least impactful to surrounding landscapes and structures
For larger or specialized projects, additional cranes may be rented with certified operators.
Insurance, Workers’ Compensation & Protecting Yourself
In Florida, companies with three or more employees are legally required to carry Workers’ Compensation insurance.
Some companies claim all workers are “subcontractors.” This is often incorrect and exposes homeowners to serious liability.
A true subcontractor must:
1. Provide their own tools
2. Provide their own transportation
3. Control their own work hours and methods
If someone is injured on your property without proper coverage, it can lead to significant legal exposure.
We strongly recommend homeowners:
1. Request a Certificate of Insurance
2. Be listed as a certificate holder or additional insured
Confirm coverage includes:
- General liability
- Workers’ Compensation
- Commercial auto insurance
If there is any doubt:
1. Call the insurance company directly
2. Verify coverage with the State of Florida
Payment & Scheduling Policy
- No deposits required
- No payment accepted until work is complete and approved
- 48 hours’ notice required for cancellations
- Late cancellations may incur a fee due to reserved scheduling
Our Philosophy
We believe an informed client is our best client.
We encourage questions, due diligence, and follow‑up discussions. Always insist on:
- A written contract
- A clearly defined scope of work
- No verbal‑only agreements
Companies with Certified Arborists on staff have typically taken the extra step to operate as professionals rather than “tree cutters.”
