Tree service questions
Straight answers to what Ormond Beach homeowners ask most.
How much does tree removal cost in Ormond Beach?
It depends on the tree's height and trunk width, how close it is to the house or power lines, whether a crane or bucket truck is needed, and whether you want the stump ground and the wood hauled away. Small trees can be a few hundred dollars while large oaks over a roof can run into the thousands. The fastest way to a real number is a free on-site quote.
Does the price include hauling away the wood and debris?
Not always. Some companies quote removal only and charge extra for hauling, log removal or stump grinding. Ask for a written quote that lists cleanup and haul-away so you can compare companies fairly.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Ormond Beach?
Ormond Beach regulates tree removal, and some trees and sizes need city approval, so check with the city before cutting. Under Florida Statute 163.045, a homeowner doesn't need a local permit to remove a tree on residential property if a certified arborist or Florida-licensed landscape architect documents in writing that it poses an unacceptable risk to people or property.
Is "hurricane cutting" my palm trees a good idea?
No. Stripping a palm down to a few fronds weakens it and can make it more likely to fail in a storm. Remove dead and drooping fronds and seed pods, and leave the healthy green crown in place.
Who trims trees near power lines, me or FPL?
Florida Power & Light maintains clearance around its main distribution lines. Never trim near a line yourself. If a tree touches the line running to your house, contact FPL first. A tree company can handle the rest of the tree once the line is safe.
Does homeowners insurance cover tree removal?
Usually only when a tree falls on a covered structure such as your house, garage or fence, and coverage for removal is often capped. Taking down a healthy tree as a precaution is normally not covered. Check your policy and take photos before any work starts.
When is the best time to trim trees in Florida?
Late winter through spring is a good window for most trees, and it gets limbs off roofs before hurricane season starts in June. Dead or hazardous limbs can be removed any time of year.
Who will actually do the work?
An independent local tree company. This site is a referral service. We don't employ crews or do tree work ourselves. When you call, text or send the form, we pass your request to a local company that serves Ormond Beach. Always ask any company for proof of insurance before work starts.
