Healthy trees add value to your property. Unhealthy or unstable trees create serious risks.
In North Florida, high winds, heavy rain, and sandy soil can weaken trees long before visible damage appears. Shaw’s Tree Service provides professional arborist services to help homeowners understand the condition of their trees and make informed decisions about care, trimming, or removal.
Our arborist evaluations focus on safety, tree health, and long-term property protection.
What a Certified Arborist Does
A certified arborist is trained to evaluate tree health, structural integrity, and environmental risks. Arborist services go beyond basic tree cutting. We identify disease, decay, root damage, pest activity, and structural weaknesses that may not be obvious to the untrained eye.
Our arborist services help homeowners determine whether a tree can be preserved, needs corrective trimming, or should be removed to prevent future damage.
When You Should Call an Arborist
Many tree problems develop slowly and worsen after storms. You should schedule an arborist inspection if you notice:
• Leaning or shifting trees
• Cracks in the trunk or major limbs
• Dead or falling branches
• Fungal growth or decay at the base
• Root exposure or soil lifting
• Storm damage or lightning strikes
Early evaluation can prevent costly emergencies later.
Arborist Services for North Florida Trees
Trees common in North Florida, including live oaks, pines, and mature shade trees, require proper evaluation due to their size and exposure to storms. Our arborist services include:
• Tree health inspections
• Risk and hazard assessments
• Storm damage evaluations
• Recommendations for trimming or removal
• Pre-purchase and insurance-related evaluations
We provide clear, practical recommendations based on safety and tree condition, not guesswork.
Arborist Evaluations After Storms
Storms often cause hidden damage that is not immediately visible. Trees may appear stable but suffer from root damage or internal cracking. An arborist inspection after severe weather helps identify trees at risk of failing days or weeks later.
This is especially important in North Florida following hurricanes and heavy rain events.

Arborist Services and Tree Removal Decisions
