Tree Trimming & Pruning

Our Approach

Tree trimming isn’t just about appearance — it’s about safety, structure, and long-term health. Our tree trimming and pruning process in Melbourne, FL follows a step-by-step plan to ensure every cut is made with purpose and precision:

  1. Property Walkthrough: We inspect your trees and discuss your concerns — overgrowth, canopy balance, clearance from homes or power lines, etc.

  2. Assessment: We identify dead or weak limbs, disease, and areas that need thinning or shaping.

  3. Pruning & Thinning: Using proper arbor techniques, we remove selected branches to open the canopy, promote airflow, and prevent storm damage.

  4. Final Cleanup: All debris and branches are removed from your property, leaving your yard neat and refreshed.

Our trimming helps your trees thrive while enhancing your home’s curb appeal and value.

Tree Removal

When a tree becomes hazardous, diseased, or storm-damaged, removal is sometimes the safest option. At Sturgeons, we handle even the most complex removals safely and efficiently.

Here’s how our removal process works:

  1. Inspection & Quote: We assess the tree’s size, structure, and surroundings to determine the safest removal method.

  2. Rigging & Safety Setup: We use ropes, harnesses, and cranes when necessary to ensure complete control.

  3. Section-by-Section Removal: Trees are carefully dismantled from the top down, preventing damage to nearby structures, fencing, or landscaping.

  4. Cleanup & Haul Away: All debris is removed, and the area is raked clean — leaving your property safe and clear.

Professional stump removal service — clean results with no mess.

Whether it’s a massive oak, palm, or storm-damaged pine, our team is trained to work safely around homes, driveways, and utilities.

Stump Grinding & Removal

Our Grinding Process

A leftover stump doesn’t just look bad — it attracts termites and makes mowing difficult. Our stump grinding and removal services in Melbourne, FL restore your lawn safely and efficiently.

  1. Site Preparation: We mark underground utilities and create a safe work area.

  2. Grinding: Using high-powered stump grinders, we grind the stump 6–12 inches below grade, depending on the site’s needs.

  3. Root Control: If roots are visible or causing yard issues, we grind or cut them back to prevent regrowth.

  4. Cleanup: We fill the hole with mulch or soil, leaving your yard level and ready for sod or landscaping.

We can remove one stump or dozens, ensuring a smooth, clean finish every time.
