Tree Service in Reddick, FL

Tree Service in Reddick covers two kinds of properties. Inside the town limits, which take in only about 1.3 square miles, homes sit on traditional small-town lots with a few large shade trees each. Just outside, the land opens into pasture, hay fields and wooded tracts where a single property may have hundreds of trees along fence lines and drives. Elite Tree Service Ocala works on both, from a single oak over a porch in town to a full fence-line cleanup on acreage.

Fence lines and pasture edges

On rural land the trees that cause the most trouble are usually the ones along fences. Limbs and whole trees fall across wire and board fences after storms, and livestock can get out before anyone notices. Clearing a fence line typically means removing dead and leaning trees, cutting back limbs that hang over the fence by several feet, and grinding or cutting flush the stumps so mowers can get close. Doing it before storm season saves a lot of emergency fence repair later.

Shade trees and animals

Large oaks in pastures provide shade that animals rely on in summer, so we rarely recommend removing a healthy one. Instead, deadwood is removed, low limbs are raised so equipment can pass under, and weight is reduced on long limbs that could split. When a shade tree is dying, it is often better to remove it in a planned way, during cool weather, than to wait for it to drop limbs where animals stand.

A brief history

Reddick was platted and founded on June 8, 1882, the same year its post office opened, and was named for its first postmaster, John Reddick. It incorporated in 1925. The old Reddick High School grounds and auditorium are still a landmark in town, and the town drew attention in 2000 when the film Jeepers Creepers was shot there.

Before storm season

For rural owners, the most useful single visit is often a walk of the whole property in spring. We note which trees threaten structures, fences or drives, and you get a written list ranked by priority so you can spread the work out if you want.

Barns, wells and outbuildings

Rural homes often have more structures under trees than town lots: barns, run-in sheds, well houses, workshops and equipment sheds. Pines and oaks that grew up beside those buildings decades ago may now overhang them completely. A falling limb that would only dent a lawn can collapse a pole barn roof or crush a well pump house. When we walk a Reddick property, we look at each outbuilding as carefully as the house, and the estimate lists the trees by what they threaten so you can decide what to do first.
