Gator Tree Service is the absolute BEST! Always professional, punctual and no issue is too small to get right. From the estimate through to the completion of work, the team carefully listens and makes sure everything is done exactly as requested. The work is very reasonably priced as well. We will never choose any other tree service!

If you need tree service, especially requiring large equipment like boom cranes for large jobs, use Gator Tree Service. Here's what's strong about their service: licensed, insured, bonded. They were one of the only companies to review permitting regarding tree removal, and they do so because they have arborists - they're experts. Their communication is clear and quick; their onsite assessment is thorough with image documentation; and the inspector will answer any questions and provide immediate quotes. The quotes - that is, price for service - is competitive. I had three services come out and Gator Tree offered the best pricing for the level of service provided. And they delivered: they work like professionals. The job was planned well, done in a timely way, and they *clean up* so your yard is spotless and undamaged. Literally, I couldn't even tell they'd removed two 18"+ diameter oaks that hung over our home. They also offer reasonable stump grinding rates. Additionally, my neighbors used them for concurrent jobs, and we were *all* happy with the work; they might even provide a small discount if you bundle jobs with others in your area. I definitely recommend Gator Tree.

They were excellent with our tree service! I have extensive landscaping and they were very careful with it and did a wonderful job with cleanup. We highly recommend them and their crews.

Alex and his crew did a terrific job for our home. Gator Tree has the cranes, lifts, tractors and stump grinders to efficiently get the job done. We had them remove 7 very large pine trees, lifting many of them over our house and onto the street. Impressive work at an excellent price!

Everything went smoothly and they were able to finish the job over the course of two days. It was fascinating to watch a climber and a boom truck remove the huge pine tree while missing two sheds and the house. The owner himself, Anthony, ground the stumps of two large oak trees that endangered the front of the house. They also raised the canopy and removed several large limbs that hung over the house. Each day, the debris was collected and carted away. All in all, an excellent job.

All work went smoothly. The crew showed up early and everyone seemed to have a job to do and went right to it. Took around three to four hours. Was very pleased with the work done, and the cost. Highly recommended.

It went wonderfully! I was told that would be starting the project at 2pm and by 5:45pm they were finished and picking up the last little bit of debris.

Anthony came over one evening after work and scheduled work for the very next day. He is very knowledgable and made some very good recommendations for our property. The whole crew was professional and helpful. They even offered us the ground tree parts for ground cover if we wanted it, which I took and will be great cover especially around the remaining trees. It is so refreshing to deal with a company like Gator Tree Service and Anthony, I would highly recommend them and would hire them again anytime. <br />

I would Recommend Anthony to everyone. He is extremely knowledgeable, I would say he is an expert in his field. When he came to my house to give me an estimate he took his time and explained everything that needed to be trimmed Or taken down. I can say he loves trees and he will not take down anything that does not need to be taken down. In other words he won't rip you off. He's such a sweet man he will even listen to your woes. LOL! <br /> <br />I had another tree service give me an estimate and he wanted $50 more just for one tree and said it would be an all day job and worth every penny. Gator Tree Service had it down in one hour. Plus did ten times more work. <br /> <br />His crew is really awesome too. They are very respectable and polite. One of them told me he accidentally bumped my mail box. It was old and ugly. He told me if I wanted to get a knew one he would put it back on the post for me. So I went to Walmart and bought one. He put it together and back on the post. I told him he did a huge favor by bumping it. :-) <br /> <br /> <br />I have not been in the mood to do any yard work until the trees came out and my yard looks so much better. The next day I mowed and raked leaves. It felt good to just do that much. Today I am going to Lowe's to get flowers, mulch and my Pygmy Date Palms that Anthony recommended because I love palms. <br /> <br />So in a nutshell, if you need tree work done, call Gator Tree Service! They are the BEST! <br /> <br /> <br />

I got the owner Mr. Anthony's number from my neighbors, who strongly recommended him to me after having their tree cut by Gator Tree Service about two weeks ago. I called and Mr.Anthony came to my house the next morning and gave me a very reasonable estimate. Yesterday, they started the service for my houses. They came on time, operated very professionally and politely, and even performed some extra tree trimming services and cleaned my houses' roof and gutters.  They also patched up one of my house's roof when they saw that a shingle was missing. All this extra work was completed without any fees. I was very impressed with Gator Tree Service's great work attitude and extra effort in helping customers. I would like to thank Mr. Anthony, his son Alex, and all crew numbers for their wonderful job and I definitely recommend Gator Tree Service to anyone who needs tree services! <br />

Anthony and his crew showed up on time and did all the services previously agreed on, to spec. They were knowledgeable, professional, and friendly, and I would certainly use them again. One note: upon arrival one of their larger vehicles accidentally bumped into my neighbor's mailbox, and Anthony came back within the week to replace the mailbox. <br />
