Kevin’s Tree Service is a family-owned tree care company based in Oviedo, serving homeowners, HOAs, and commercial properties throughout the Greater Orlando Area. Every job starts with a clear plan: what the tree needs, how we’ll reach it safely, and how we’ll protect the property around it.

Our pruning follows ANSI A300 standards, our crews bring the right equipment for tight residential access, and we finish with a cleanup that leaves your yard ready to use. Not sure what you need? Call us and we’ll talk it through.

Professional Tree Trimming & Pruning

Good pruning makes trees safer, healthier, and better looking for years. We prune young trees for strong structure, clear limbs over roofs, driveways, and pool screens, and selectively thin mature canopies, always to ANSI A300 standards.

  • Structural pruning and canopy clearance
  • No topping or lion-tailing, only proper cuts that close well
  • Palm cleaning without harsh “hurricane” cuts

Safe Tree Removal, Including Crane Removals

When a tree is dead, declining, storm-damaged, or too close to structures, we plan the removal around your property, using rigging and controlled lowering, ground protection, and crane-assisted removal when it measurably lowers risk to people and property, using our own grapple saw crane or a larger hired crane when the job requires one. See our specialized crane services.

  • Tight-access and technical dismantles
  • Ground protection mats and controlled lowering
  • Full debris handling and site cleanup

Grapple Saw Crane Service

Our own grapple saw crane (often called a grapple saw truck), run by a KTS operator, holds each section of the tree, cuts it, and lowers it under control to the ground or the truck. Depending on site conditions, this equipment can reduce the need for climbing and help limit disturbance to the surrounding property.

  • Holds, cuts, and lowers each section
  • Helpful for dead or hard-to-climb trees
  • Needs truck access and setup space, which we check during your estimate

Grapple Truck Debris Hauling

Our grapple truck loads and hauls logs, brush, and storm debris, on our own jobs, after storms, and for property owners and contractors who need wood and debris removed. It is a hauling service, separate from the grapple saw truck used for tree removal.

  • Log and brush pickup and haul-off
  • Storm debris cleanup
  • Less hand-loading and dragging across your yard

Emergency Tree Service & Storm Response

We accept emergency tree-service calls 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Our team coordinates responses based on urgency, weather, safety conditions, and crew availability, prioritizing hazards that block access or threaten structures. We can also document the damage to help with insurance claims.

  • Trees on homes, roofs, and vehicles
  • Blocked driveways and dangerous hanging limbs
  • Rigging and crane support when needed
  • Coordination when utilities are involved

Stump Grinding & Root Chasing

We typically grind stumps 4–12 inches below grade; our grinder reaches a maximum depth of 15 inches. Surface-root chasing can be included in the written scope. Grinding does not remove the entire root system or guarantee enough space to plant a new tree in the same spot. Chip haul-off and backfill are optional and must be included in the written scope.

  • Grinding depth and utility clearance reviewed before work
  • Smoother lawns with root chasing
  • Optional chip haul-off and backfill

Certified Arborist Consultations

Our tree care work is performed under ISA Certified Arborist oversight (Certification #FL-9743A). We provide tree health and risk evaluations, preservation and pruning plans, and guidance on permits and HOA requirements, so you can make informed decisions before any cutting begins.

  • Tree health and risk evaluations
  • Preservation and pruning plans
  • Permit and HOA guidance when needed

  • Ground protection mats for turf, driveways, and entry points
  • Controlled lowering to protect roofs, screens, and fences
  • Tight-access planning for fenced and landscaped yards
  • Complete cleanup with brush and log removal

How We Quote & Schedule

  1. On-site visit: we review your goals, access, and property protection, then give you a written scope and price.
  2. Scheduling: we match the right crew and equipment and coordinate any HOA, permit, or access needs.
  3. Job day: mats down, controlled rigging, careful work, and debris haul-away.
  4. Final check: a walk-through to confirm everything matches the proposal.

What Affects the Cost of Tree Service?

We price by the scope, not the hour, and put everything in writing so you can compare options clearly. The main factors are tree size and condition, access, proximity to structures and utilities, the equipment needed, and debris handling.

Stump grinding can be added to the same proposal. Financing options are available for larger projects, including removals and storm-related work.

Where We Work

Our primary service area is Orange and Seminole Counties, with a focus on Orlando, Oviedo, Winter Springs, Winter Park, and surrounding communities.

Tree Service FAQs

Do you offer free estimates?
Yes — quick, no-obligation estimates for trimming, removal, stump grinding, and storm cleanup.
Are you insured?
Yes. Kevin’s Tree Service carries General Liability and Workers’ Compensation insurance, and we can provide certificates upon request. Our tree care work is performed under ISA Certified Arborist oversight (Certification #FL-9743A).
How fast is emergency response?
We accept emergency tree-service calls 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Our team coordinates responses based on urgency, weather, safety conditions, and crew availability, prioritizing hazards that block access or threaten structures.
Do you handle crane removals?
Yes — we use crane-assisted removal when it measurably lowers risk to people and property.
What is the difference between your grapple saw truck and your grapple truck?
The grapple saw truck is tree-removal equipment that holds, cuts, and lowers tree sections. The grapple truck is for hauling: it loads and removes logs, brush, and storm debris.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree?
Permit requirements depend on your city or county and the tree. 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. See our tree removal permit guide for details.
Is cleanup included?
Yes. Cleanup includes brush and log removal, raking, and blowing off hardscapes. If stump grinding is part of the project, you can choose chip haul-away or leave the chips for landscape use.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. Financing options are available for larger projects, including removals and storm-related work.
What areas do you serve?
We serve Orange and Seminole Counties, with a focus on Orlando, Oviedo, Winter Springs, Winter Park, and surrounding communities.

We had a tree removed that was right up against our house and hanging over the roof. They removed the tree and stump. Cleaned and hauled everything away. You can’t tell there was ever a tree there. Quick responses. Great communication before, during, and after. We had to reschedule a couple of times due to equipment and Mother Nature (rain) but they kept us informed every step. Would highly recommend Kevin’s Tree Service!

Kevin's is seriously the most professional and efficient company I've hired in a long time. The cost was extremely reasonable for the removal and stump grinding of our 2 trees. The work itself was handled with the utmost care, then leaving behind no trace. I would absolutely recommend Kevin's Tree Service to anyone in their area.

I am so happy I chose Kevin's Tree Services!!!! We had so much to do on our property, and their team was so professional and helpful. Their agent came to our property, walked with me, and explained to me all the options. They sent six people to work on the property, and I was impressed with their excellent service and safety. They left the property clean and ensured I was happy with their work.

Our big, very tall old oak tree was leaning a whole lot before I even noticed. When I did notice, I saw that every time it rained it moved a little bit more. Kevin’s Tree Service arrived with a well trained crew and equipment. They had the tree cut up, removed carefully and even cleaned up the yard in a few hours. Prompt, efficient and pleasant. Five stars for sure.

We got 4 quotes for the tree service we needed done before hurricane season kicked into high gear. While they were neither the highest or the lowest of the quotes, we felt theirs was the most professional of the quotes/contracts we received. Everything was spelled out, every I dotted & every T crossed. You knew exactly what services you were getting & the price paid. When Kevin's Tree Service quoted our job, they also quoted a family members home in the same subdivision. On the day of our appointments they rolled in with all the equipment needed. Our job took about 45 minutes start to finish. Our family member's job. took just about an hour as they had double the trees. When they were finished both yards were clean, all debris was put into the chipper & hauled off. The price was very good, the service was excellent & as the trees continue to grow out, we expect to be using Kevin's Tree Service.
