Trees on houses, blocked drives and hangers left after a Florida storm.
After a storm the priority order is safety, access, then tidying. A tree on a roof or across a driveway is urgent; a hanging limb is dangerous and should be treated as urgent even though nothing has fallen yet. Never approach a tree that is touching or near a power line: that is a call to the utility, not to a tree crew. Photograph everything before it is moved, because that documentation is what an insurance claim will rest on.

Ranges are typical Florida market figures for 2026 and are published as a guide only. Height, trunk diameter, species, how close the tree stands to a house or power line, and whether a crane is needed all move the final number. Stump grinding and haul away are often quoted separately. Get the price in writing before work starts.
Florida does not issue a statewide tree contractor licence, so insurance is the thing to verify. Ask for a certificate of general liability and workers compensation cover and confirm it with the insurer named on it, check whether the crew includes an ISA certified arborist, and get a written scope covering which trees, the stump, and debris removal before any work begins.
