Tree care for College Park properties
On College Park’s established streets, a mature tree may reach over several roofs or leave little room for equipment beside the house. A useful estimate starts with the tree you want to keep, the branches causing concern and a clear plan for handling anything that needs removing.
Kevin’s Tree Service is based in Oviedo and has worked across Central Florida since 1987. We bring our own tree crew, climbing and lift equipment, and a grapple-saw crane. Before work is scheduled, you receive a written scope identifying the trees, access arrangements and cleanup.
Tree removal in College Park
A large tree beside a house needs more than a place for it to fall. We plan how to dismantle it, where sections can be lowered and how wood will leave the property. Depending on the tree and reach, that may mean climbing, a spider lift or crane assistance.
Our College Park-area records include a declining live oak that had already dropped major limbs, a camphor affecting a concrete wall and dead Norfolk pines behind a home. Those are different problems, so the equipment and removal scope should be chosen for the individual tree.
What we assess before removal
- The tree. Condition, size and the space needed to handle sections.
- The surroundings. Buildings, fences, landscaping and any nearby utilities.
- Access. Gate openings, staging space and the route for taking wood out.
- The finish. Debris removal, stump work and any separately scheduled tasks.
Tree trimming and pruning in College Park
Pruning can create roof and driveway clearance without giving up a healthy shade tree. We identify deadwood, damaged limbs and selected branches that need reducing or raising, rather than taking the same amount out of every part of the canopy.
Our crews follow ANSI A300 pruning standards, with no topping or lion-tailing. If access or branches involve a neighbor, tell us during the estimate. We agree on the work and any necessary access permission before the crew starts.
Clearance with a plan
Show us the branches or areas that concern you. We identify the pruning priorities with you before work starts: roof clearance, low limbs over a driveway, deadwood or selected limbs that need reducing.
Tell us about nearby service wires at the estimate. Work involving electrical hazards needs assessment and coordination; utility-line work should not be assumed to be included in an ordinary pruning quote.
Crane removal, dead pines and oak pruning from our College Park-area records
Completed College Park-area work, November 2025–August 2026: a declining live oak, dead Norfolk pines and oak pruning around homes.
- Declining live oak removed with crane assistance
A large live oak had dropped two major limbs that struck the home. The scope included crane-assisted removal, grapple-truck hauling, stump grinding and removal of the grindings.
Crane removalGrapple truckStump grinding - Camphor and two dead Norfolk pines removed
A camphor was affecting a concrete wall near the front of a home, and two dead Norfolk pines stood behind it. Lift and climbing work were included, along with stump grinding and debris hauling.

The crew pruned oaks around the property for deadwood, selected limb reduction and broken-leader removal. Access through a neighbor’s driveway and yard was recorded as permitted for the work.

Planning around the tree and the surrounding homes
College Park is an Orlando neighborhood, not a separate city. Our page covers tree work around its residential streets and the Edgewater Drive area, with the same attention to access whether the tree is out front or behind the house.
Point out pavers, irrigation, fences, roof edges and areas where equipment cannot go. When the access plan involves a neighbor’s driveway or yard, permission needs to be arranged in advance. We discuss staging and debris removal so the tree work and the finish are clear.
Details to cover at the estimate
- Space for climbing, lift or crane access
- Roofs, driveways and fences beneath the canopy
- Permission for any neighboring-property access
- Written stump-grinding and debris-hauling options
Permit assistance
College Park is inside the City of Orlando, so City of Orlando tree rules apply. HOA requirements are separate. Kevin’s Tree Service can assist with tree removal permit applications when required.
Our own crew and equipment
We own a grapple-saw crane, compact spider lift, chipper and hauling equipment. The setup depends on the tree and the property—not every job needs a crane, and not every yard suits a machine.
For a tree beyond our crane’s reach or capacity, we hire a larger crane from a crane company and include the arrangement in your quote.
Stump grinding, cleanup and arborist services
Stump grinding
Grinding below grade where access and conditions allow. Your quote specifies depth, grindings and scheduling. Grinding does not excavate the full root system.
Stump grinding details →Arborist oversight
ISA Certified Arborist oversight for tree-health and keep-or-remove questions. Formal assessments and letters are separate paid services.
Arborist services →Insured tree crew
General liability and workers’ compensation insurance. Certificates of insurance are available upon request.
Insurance details →Storm response
Phones answered 24/7 for fallen trees and broken limbs. Dispatch depends on crew availability, weather and safe working conditions.
Emergency tree service →A written price for the work you need
Tree size and condition, access, the space beneath the canopy and the amount of cleanup all affect the price. We visit the property and give you a written scope and price rather than guessing from a city-wide price list.
Ask us to separate removal, pruning and stump options if you are deciding what to do first. The estimate should make clear what is included, what stays on site and whether another visit is needed.

College Park tree service questions
Can you remove a large tree close to a College Park home?
We assess the tree, the space around it and access before recommending the removal method. Climbing, spider-lift access or crane assistance may be appropriate. Your quote identifies the planned work and any access arrangements.
Can you prune limbs away from a roof without topping the tree?
Yes. Where suitable, we raise or reduce selected limbs and remove deadwood while retaining an appropriate canopy. Our crews follow ANSI A300 pruning standards, with no topping or lion-tailing.
What if the work needs access through a neighbor’s yard?
Tell us at the estimate. We discuss the access route and proposed work so any necessary permission can be arranged before the crew starts. Do not assume a neighboring yard or driveway can be used without permission.
Can you help with a tree removal permit?
Yes. Whether a permit is needed depends on where your property is and on the tree. College Park is inside the City of Orlando, so City of Orlando tree rules apply. Kevin’s Tree Service can assist with tree removal permit applications when required. Certain trees on eligible single-family residential properties may qualify for an exemption under Florida Statute 163.045. Not every tree qualifies, and HOA requirements are separate. Professional arborist assessments and letters are separate paid services.
Are estimates free, and what does the quote include?
Estimates for ordinary tree removal, pruning and stump grinding are free. The written scope identifies the trees, access, debris handling and any stump work. Formal arborist assessments and letters are separate paid services.
Do you use your own tree crew and equipment?
Our own tree crew does the tree work. We own a grapple-saw crane, spider lift and hauling equipment. If a job needs a larger crane, we hire one from a crane company and include the arrangement in the quote.
Do you require a deposit, and when do I pay?
No deposits. You don’t pay until the job is 100% complete and you’re satisfied.
