The answers most people ask before booking.

Most residential stumps in the Lutz / Tampa Bay area run $95–$400 depending on diameter, root flare, gate access, and how many stumps are on the job. We give firm written quotes — no hourly surprises.

Tree removal runs from a few hundred dollars for small palms to $2,000+ for large hazard oaks over a house. Pricing depends on size, lean, access, debris handling, and whether crane support is needed. We quote in writing before any work begins.

Yes — every quote is free, written, and there's no obligation to book. Most quotes are returned the same day.

No service-call fee for residential quotes inside our regular service area (Hillsborough, Pasco, Pinellas).

Standard depth is 6–12 inches below grade — deep enough to lay sod, reseed, or plant new landscaping. We can grind deeper for slabs, footers, or replanting trees on request.

Grinding chews the stump down below grade and leaves the root system in place — fast, low-impact, ideal for cosmetic and lawn restoration. Full stump removal extracts the entire root ball — slower and more invasive, but necessary for pools, foundations, driveways, or replanting in the same hole.

Yes — once we grind 6–12 inches below grade and either backfill or replace with topsoil, you can lay sod or seed. We can rake the wood chips into the hole as a free amendment, or haul them off — your call.

We use plywood and turf mats on heavy passes and the smallest practical grinder for each job. Minor wheel impressions are typical, but we leave the site raked clean and ready to use.

Yes. Palm root balls are softer than hardwood but bigger, so they take a bit longer. We handle them all — sabal, queen, royal, washingtonia.

Each county has its own rules around protected species (e.g., grand trees, mangroves). For most dead, dying, or hazard trees no permit is needed, but we'll confirm before we cut. Florida statute 163.045 also limits permit requirements for documented hazards.

Yes. Trees on houses, vehicles, or blocking access — call us any time. We work hard through Florida storm season.

Late winter through early spring for most hardwoods, before the major growth flush. Palms can be trimmed year-round, but after fronds turn brown is best.

Done right, trimming makes a tree stronger. We follow ISA pruning standards — never topping, never over-thinning. The wrong cut at the wrong time is what kills trees.

Most quotes are returned same day. Standard residential jobs are typically scheduled within the week. Emergencies handled 24/7.

Lutz is our home base. We regularly serve Land O'Lakes, Wesley Chapel, Odessa, Carrollwood, Tampa, Brandon, Clearwater, St. Petersburg, Palm Harbor, Oldsmar, Dade City, and Thonotosassa — Hillsborough, Pasco, and Pinellas counties.

Yes. We carry the insurance, the documentation, and the experience to work with property managers, HOAs, builders, and municipalities.

Yes — full general liability and workers' compensation. Happy to provide a Certificate of Insurance (COI) before any job starts.

Yes, for any stump extraction or root work that goes meaningfully below grade. We also ask for sprinkler, septic, and private utility locations before we dig.

Light rain we work through. Heavy rain or lightning we reschedule for safety. We'll call before the truck rolls.
