Caring for Central Florida's Oaks
Live oaks and laurel oaks shade most yards in Longwood, Lake Mary and Winter Park. They're worth keeping healthy, but they grow large, heavy limbs over roofs and driveways, and laurel oaks in particular can decline and drop limbs as they age.
McCullough Tree Service prunes, assesses and, when needed, removes oak trees. Our 3 ISA-certified arborists plan the work so the tree keeps its natural shape and stays strong.

Live Oak vs. Laurel Oak
Live oaks are long-lived and strong when they're pruned well when young. Laurel oaks grow fast and often develop decay and weak unions as they mature, so older laurel oaks near homes deserve a risk assessment. Our arborists can tell you which you have and what it needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to trim oak trees in Florida?
Most oak pruning can be done year-round in Central Florida. Storm-prep trimming before hurricane season is common.
Can you trim an oak without hurting it?
Yes. We make proper pruning cuts and never top a tree, so it heals and keeps its shape.
Are oak trees protected in my city?
Many Central Florida cities protect large oaks. Check with your city before removal; we can help you find out.
Why is my laurel oak dropping limbs?
Older laurel oaks often develop decay. An arborist should check the tree before a large limb fails.
