Arbor Pro - Jacksonville's Licensed Landscapers

Exposed roots, common with our local palms and mature trees, can be a tripping hazard and affect your lawn's health. Arbor Pro's ISA Certified Arborists can assess the situation to determine the safest course of action. We never recommend removing major structural roots, as this can destabilize the tree. Instead, we may suggest strategic pruning to reduce canopy weight, careful grading and mulching over minor surface roots, or installing a protective barrier. Our goal is to mitigate the issue while preserving the long-term health and safety of your valuable trees.

Safety is our foremost priority for your family, your property, and our crew. Our process begins with a detailed assessment by our trained arborists to plan the safest removal strategy. We use modern, well-maintained equipment and proven rigging techniques to control the descent of each section. For every removal, we establish clear drop zones, use protective mats for your lawn, and maintain thorough communication throughout the job. Our team is fully insured and trained to handle the complexities of tree removal in Jacksonville's varied residential settings.

While often used interchangeably, pruning and trimming serve different purposes. Trimming typically refers to cutting back branches for shaping, size control, or clearing from structures. Pruning is a more precise, health-focused practice that involves the selective removal of dead, diseased, or poorly attached branches to improve a tree's structure and vitality. Our ISA Certified Arborists will evaluate your tree's species, age, and condition to recommend the appropriate service. Proper technique is crucial; we make clean cuts at the correct location to promote rapid healing and prevent future problems.
