It's 11 PM, the wind has finally dropped, and there's an oak limb through the lanai roof. Or the pine came down across the driveway and you can't get the car out in the morning. Or the whole tree is on the house and you're not sure it's done moving. Call the storm line — it's the same number, it's answered, and "tree on the house" gets you straight through.
Make it safe. That means getting the weight off the structure before it does more damage, cutting away what's hanging, tarping the hole if the roof is open, and clearing the driveway or the road so you can get out and the power company can get in. We do that any hour of the day in hurricane season and we don't leave you with a half-cut tree because it got dark.
Tidy comes second. Once the house is safe and you can move, we come back on a normal schedule to take the rest of the tree, grind the stump and clean the yard.
When a hurricane comes through Marion County, every tree company in the state is booked for weeks and the out-of-town crews show up with prices to match. We work through our own list first — the customers we already know — then take new calls in the order they came in. If you're on our books before the season, you're on the list. That's the practical reason to have your trimming done in April.
We give you an itemized invoice, photos and a written description of what was done and why, which is what an adjuster needs to see. We don't bill the insurance company directly, and we won't inflate a job because insurance is paying.
Standing byTell us what the tree is doing and where. You'll either talk to Danny right then or pick a time for him to call you back, usually within the hour.
Sabal, queen and Washingtonia palms trimmed the right way — dead fronds, seed pods and boots off, the green crown left alone.
Building lots, overgrown fence lines and pasture edges cleared, chipped and hauled. Selective clearing when you want to keep the good trees.
Dead, leaning, storm-cracked or simply in the wrong place. Sectional take-downs in tight yards, full removals on open lots, hauled or chipped on site.
