Tree Removal & Tree Service in Jacksonville, FL
Jacksonville is home to some of North Florida's oldest and largest trees, from moss-draped live oaks in Riverside and San Marco to tall pines throughout Mandarin, Arlington, and the Westside. That mix of mature canopy and fast-growing new development means Jacksonville homeowners face a wide range of tree issues, and often need a company that understands both.
Shaw's Tree Service is based right in Jacksonville and has spent years working in neighborhoods across Duval County. We know which trees tend to fail in sandy soil after heavy rain, which limbs threaten roofs during hurricane season, and how to remove large trees safely on tight urban lots.
Tree Risks Specific to Jacksonville
Jacksonville's sandy, well-drained soil can leave large trees with shallow root systems, which becomes a problem once summer thunderstorms and tropical systems saturate the ground. Older neighborhoods with mature oaks and pines are especially prone to leaning trees, cracked trunks, and limbs hanging over roofs, driveways, and power lines. Newer subdivisions have the opposite challenge: young trees that need proper pruning early on to grow structurally sound.
