Tree Removal & Tree Service in St. Johns, FL
St. Johns is one of the fastest-growing areas in North Florida, with new subdivisions rising next to older rural properties that still have decades-old oaks and pines. That combination means tree needs here vary a lot from one street to the next, from clearing land for new construction to protecting mature trees on established lots.
Shaw's Tree Service works throughout St. Johns County, helping homeowners and builders manage everything from young tree care in new developments to removing large, established trees safely.
Tree Risks Specific to St. Johns
Newly built homes often come with recently planted trees that need early, structural pruning to grow strong and avoid problems later. Older, rural parcels throughout St. Johns tend to have large, mature oaks and pines that can develop hidden decay, root damage, or storm stress over time. New construction sites also frequently need trees cleared or thinned before building begins, which requires a different approach than routine residential trimming.

Yes. We handle tree removal for new construction sites, including larger clearing jobs, and can coordinate around your builder's timeline.
