Our quality of emergency work represents our position as a tree service company committed to safety, expertise, and professionalism. Contact us for a free estimate!

"Had a small job: 1 major branch that threatened my garage; 1 smaller branch that was getting ready to be a problem; 1 small branch looming over a sidewalk that I did not want to be liable for in case it injured a pedestrian. The point being that J Trimming Tree Service took the request even though it was a small job. Friendly but professional; On time; cleaned up completely. But here's the best part showing the integrity of the company, something you don't see very often these days. A slight glitch took place during the job which the workers tried desperately, but unsuccessfully to fix. Within 3 days, J Trimming Tree Service took care of the issue - no questions asked, no debate, no excuses, no blame. What company does THAT anymore!! That's real integrity, and that's why I do not hesitate to recommend this company, and I plan on using them again. Thank you, Aira and the crew!"

"Subject: Report of No-Show and Lack of Communication – Provider Anthony (321-420-3167) Dear Angi Customer Support, I am writing to report an issue with a service provider I was connected with through your platform. The provider's name is Anthony, phone number 321-420-3167. He agreed to come to my home to provide an estimate for weeding services on Tuesday, June 24, 2025. Unfortunately, Anthony never showed up for the appointment, did not call to cancel or reschedule, and has not responded to the follow-up text I sent. This lack of professionalism and communication is extremely disappointing and not what I expect from a provider listed on Angi. I would appreciate it if you could look into this matter and take the appropriate steps to ensure this does not happen to other users. I went to Angi because I assumed it was reliable"

FAQs for tree service projects in Sanford, FL

You might remove a tree for free if it’s small, easy to reach, and your city doesn’t require a permit. Call the planning or public works office first to be sure. If they give you the green light, follow all safety rules, wear protective gear, and ask a friend to spot you. When in doubt—or if the tree is tall—hire a pro instead.

In many cities, you’ll need a permit—sometimes even an arborist’s report—before cutting down a tree. Start by calling your local building or planning department. They’ll tell you whether the tree is protected, how big it can be before a permit kicks in, and whether the work has to be done by a licensed pro. Get written approval before scheduling the job to stay on the right side of local rules.

It’s best to leave healthy trees alone—they add shade, boost curb appeal, and support wildlife. Take one down only if it’s dead, diseased beyond saving, or posing a real safety risk. Check local rules first; many areas protect heritage or street trees. 

When removal seems necessary, bring in a licensed arborist for an on-site assessment and written recommendation before you book the crew.

If you’re torn between trimming, pruning, or full removal, start with an honest health check. Trim to shape the canopy or encourage new growth. Prune when you spot broken or diseased branches that could spread trouble. 

Plan on removal only if the trunk is hollow, several major limbs are dead, storm damage is extensive, or the tree leans dangerously toward a structure.

A tree that’s 15 to 20 feet from your home isn’t automatically a problem. Healthy, small species often coexist just fine with houses. Trouble starts when the trunk shows decay, roots crack the foundation, or overhanging branches threaten the roof. Bring in a licensed arborist for a close look and written recommendation before you decide to remove or simply prune.

Timing hinges on size and complexity. A small tree might be gone in a few hours, a mid-sized one in half a day, and a giant could keep the crew busy for one to two full workdays. Add extra time if you’re grinding the stump, hauling wood, or navigating tight spaces near power lines or fences.
