Tree removal in Southwood, FL

Southwood was developed around its trees on purpose, which means most lots have mature live oaks, laurel oaks, and longleaf pines preserved unusually close to the homes. That's beautiful day to day, and a real problem when a hurricane comes through or a pine starts losing its top. We do a steady mix of preventive removal, storm cleanup, and stump grinding across Southwood β€” from Four Oaks Boulevard and Esplanade Way out to the conservation areas along Capital Circle.

The Southwood HOA cares about how the work gets done. Our crews keep the site clean, protect surrounding turf and landscaping, and grind stumps below grade so you can resod or replant immediately.

What we see in Southwood

  • Newer construction with preserved live oaks close to homes
  • Pine straw under tall slash and longleaf pines
  • Storm-leaning trees toward roofs and lanais
  • Stump grinding for landscaping and replanting
