Cabling & Bracing

Are you concerned about a limb or tree falling on your property? Reduce the risk by supporting your tree’s weak branches with cabling and bracing, installed to ANSI standards. We strategically place these systems to provide additional support, keeping your tree strong and protected during storms.

Air Spading & Root Pruning

Are tree roots disrupting your landscape, lifting pathways or stonework, or in the way of a new build? Root pruning and air spading can help. Root pruning uses a machine to make precise cuts, severing the roots without damaging the tree, while air spading is used in tight spaces to hand prune the overextended roots.

Lightning Protection

Are you concerned that trees on your property could be at risk of a lightning strike? Safeguard your trees from lightning damage with a tailored protection system. We install copper cables from the canopy to a grounded rod, directing lightning safely away from your tree to minimize the risk of destruction to your property.

“They were very professional and wonderful”

Hurricane Milton left our neighbor’s tree on our roof. Not knowing who to call, a colleague referred me to Independent Tree Services, Inc. Christi answered the phone and was wonderful and kind. She was able to get Jordan to come on a Saturday to assess the situation. On Tuesday, his amazing team of Nathan, Adam, Richie and Danny arrived and got to work. In a couple of hours, the tree was gone! They also cleaned up the tree mess and the additional debris from the hurricane in the backyard. They were very professional and wonderful young men. Excellent work. Highly recommend!

“Rockstar service from start to finish”

When our enormous laurel oak suddenly lost two limbs we were faced with having to remove this beautiful beast of a tree which not only posed a major threat to multiple properties but also towered over power lines and a utility pole. It took a month for TECO to schedule the necessary power outage but Marti continued to follow up and communicate the progress. The removal was an enormous job but Chris and his crew stayed late to get this huge job done in two days. They were incredibly professional and took the utmost care to protect our property from any further damage. I had just put in some new plants that I thought would end up as collateral damage but Chris made sure not a leaf on any of them was harmed. They even left the yard more level than it was when they arrived. Having to remove such a majestic tree was truly heartbreaking but the level of professionalism and great communication throughout the whole process made things easier.

“The crew was extremely respectful and attentive”

Excellent service, very reasonable prices. They did a great job removing the branches from over my roof while also ensuring the tree would stay healthy. They also cleaned up my yard and left it looking better than it was before. I definitely would recommend them to anyone.
