Does This Tree Really Need to Come Down?
Removing a large tree is permanent, and it's often expensive. Before you decide, a removal evaluation gives you an arborist's honest opinion: whether the tree is dead, dangerous or failing, or whether it can be kept with pruning, cabling or treatment.
McCullough Tree Service's ISA-certified arborists do these evaluations across Longwood and Central Florida. Customers have told us we've saved trees they were sure were dead.
What the Evaluation Covers
- The tree's health and structure, from roots to canopy
- How likely it is to fail, and what's underneath it
- Options to keep it: pruning, cabling, treatment
- Whether your city or county requires a permit for removal
- If removal is the right call: the safest way to do it
If the Tree Has to Go
We'll explain how it would be removed, whether by climbing and rigging or with a crane, and give you a free estimate for tree removal and stump grinding.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I remove a tree that's close to my house?
Not necessarily. Many trees near homes can be kept with pruning. An evaluation tells you whether it's a real risk.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree?
Many Central Florida cities and counties require one for larger or protected trees. We can tell you what applies.
Can you tell if a tree is dead?
Yes. Our arborists check the bark, buds, wood and roots to tell a dead tree from a stressed one.
Is the evaluation separate from the removal estimate?
The arborist's visit covers both: whether removal is needed, and the estimate if it is.
