Complete Tree Services in Neptune Beach
Tree Removal
From small ornamental trees to massive live oaks, our crews safely remove trees of any size in Neptune Beach. We handle hazardous trees, dead trees, storm-damaged trees, and trees that need to come down for construction or renovation. Every removal includes full cleanup — we leave your property cleaner than we found it. Tree removal in the Neptune Beach area typically costs between $377 and $1,331 depending on tree size, species, location, and complexity.
Tree Trimming & Pruning
Regular trimming keeps your trees healthy, your property safe, and your curb appeal sharp. Our arborists follow ISA pruning standards — we never top trees or make cuts that damage tree health. We trim for clearance (roof, driveway, power lines), structure (reduce storm risk), and aesthetics. Trimming in Neptune Beach typically runs $232–$958 per tree depending on size and access.
Stump Grinding
After a tree comes down, the stump needs to go. Left behind, stumps attract termites, create trip hazards, and block landscaping plans. We grind stumps 6–12 inches below grade so you can sod, landscape, or build right over the spot. Stump grinding typically costs $175–$550 depending on diameter.
Land Clearing
Building a new home, adding a pool, or developing a lot in Neptune Beach? We clear land of any size — from a backyard section to multi-acre parcels. Services include tree removal, stump grinding, brush clearing, debris hauling, and grade preparation. We work with contractors, handle St. Johns County permits, and preserve valuable trees you want to keep.
Storm Damage & Hurricane Debris Removal
Florida’s hurricane season brings serious tree damage risk to Neptune Beach. When storms hit, our emergency crews respond 24/7 — fallen trees on structures, blocked driveways, and hanging limbs (“widow makers”). Call (386) 320-3169 anytime for emergency service.
Debris Cleanup
Whether it’s post-storm debris, a DIY project gone sideways, or years of accumulated brush and fallen branches, we haul it all away. Full lot cleanup, brush pile removal, palm frond hauling — we handle the heavy lifting so you don’t have to.
Pressure Washing
Trees create more than just shade — they drop leaves, sap, pollen, and organic matter that stains driveways, sidewalks, roofs, and home exteriors. Our pressure washing service restores your surfaces. Driveway cleaning typically runs $150–$300, house washing $250–$500, and roof cleaning $300–$600.
