"We contacted the owner, Fabio, through Home Advisor. He called me within 2 hours, came to see us the same day, and did the work we needed (and some work we didn't know we needed until Fabio educated us) the very next day. Fabio had a great understanding of what was wrong with our fruit trees, and did the appropriate staking, pruning, and root maintenance to all of our trees. He also gave us detailed instruction of how to care for our trees going forward. I highly recommend Glider Tree Service for any project, large or small. They are honest, timely, knowledgable and professional."

"Rashad’s Tree Service helped cut 4 overgrown trees and my palm trees. It was a big job and he got it done fast. He did an amazing and efficient job. He was very nice and great with communicating. I would hire him again for any future landscaping needs."

"Would highly recommend Ray and his crew to do most any kind of tree trimming. We had a very tall tree leaning slightly towards our home. They were able cut the tree down to a level that would keep our home safe. These trees belong to the neighbor behind us and he never takes care of these trees at all. I thank Ray and the crew for trimming the tall tree and a few others way back away from our fence. Ray is very knowledgeable on the different kind of trees and is a real tree climber. Would recommend them for any project you need done."

FAQs for trees & shrubs treat, protect and maintain projects in Sarasota, FL

The optimal transplanting season depends on your tree species, but most trees respond best when moved during dormancy. For deciduous trees, late fall after leaf drop or early spring before bud break provides the lowest stress periods. Evergreens transplant better in early fall or late summer when soil temperatures remain warm enough for some root growth. Avoiding transplanting during active growth periods helps trees direct energy toward establishing new roots rather than supporting foliage.

While technically, trees of any size can be transplanted with the right equipment and expertise, practical considerations limit what's reasonable for most homeowners. Trees with trunk diameters under 15 inches are most commonly transplanted in residential settings. Success rates decline as trees increase in size and age, with specimens over 24 inches in diameter presenting significant challenges and costs. For large trees, carefully weigh the substantial investment against the potential benefits and survival probability.

Most transplanted trees require one to two years to fully establish in their new location, with larger specimens often needing additional time. During this establishment period, the tree regenerates roots that were inevitably lost during the move. Signs of successful establishment include normal seasonal growth patterns, healthy leaf development, and reduced dependence on supplemental watering. The quality of aftercare during this critical period significantly influences long-term survival rates.

Self-transplanting is feasible for small trees with trunk diameters under two to three inches if you have proper tools and follow correct techniques. However, medium to large trees require professional expertise and specialized equipment to ensure tree survival and property protection. While professional services cost more initially, they achieve much higher success rates and prevent potential damage to your property or the tree itself. The investment in professional services often proves worthwhile when considering the value of mature trees.
