Majestic Oaks and Urban Greenery Alike, We’re Ocala’s Trusted Tree Care Professionals.
In Ocala, where majestic oaks and vibrant greenery define our city, Brussell’s Lawn & Tree stands as your dedicated partner for expert tree care. Known as the “Horse Capital of the World,” our landscape, from Spanish moss-draped live oaks to elegant magnolias and stately pines, is as iconic as our thoroughbreds. These trees are more than just a beautiful backdrop; they are valuable assets requiring specialized care to thrive in Central Florida’s unique environment.
As a local, owner-led company, we understand the specific needs of Ocala’s trees. Our professional, friendly staff delivers high-standard arboriculture that ensures trees remain an asset to your property, offering greater curb appeal and enhanced safety, whether for large estates or growing neighborhoods.
A tree may become a hazard due to advanced disease, irreversible storm damage, or proximity to buildings, power lines, or underground utilities. The team at Brussell’s Lawn & Tree is prepared to perform tree removal services of any size and complexity throughout Ocala. We have extensive experience working in diverse settings, from spacious horse farms to compact suburban lots, and we always prioritize the safety of your property.
Our removal process is systematic and thorough. We begin with a careful on-site assessment to devise the safest and most efficient removal strategy. Using advanced rigging equipment and proven industry techniques, our crew meticulously dismantles the tree in manageable sections, carefully lowering each piece to prevent any impact on your home, fences, or surrounding landscape. Following the removal, we conduct a complete cleanup of all branches and debris, leaving your property looking clean, safe, and ready for whatever you have planned next.
Proper trimming and pruning are mandatory for maintaining the aesthetic harmony and safety of your trees. In a city like Ocala, renowned for its magnificent tree canopy, our skilled arborists provide meticulous pruning services tailored to the individual needs of each tree. We focus on more than just appearance; our aim is to improve the structural integrity of your trees, making them more resilient to the strong winds and heavy rains of Florida’s storm season. This involves the careful removal of dead, dying, or diseased branches, as well as thinning the canopy to promote better air circulation and sunlight penetration, which helps prevent fungal growth and pest infestations.
Each cut is made with purpose and care to minimize stress on the tree and direct its growth in a healthy, sustainable way. This proactive maintenance not only enhances the immediate beauty of your property but also safeguards the long-term health of your valuable green assets.
After tree removal, the leftover stump can be a significant eyesore and an inconvenient obstacle. It can interfere with lawn mowing, create a tripping hazard for your family, and become a breeding ground for termites, ants, fungi, and other pests. Our professional stump grinding service provides a clean and complete solution. We utilize powerful, state-of-the-art machinery to grind the stump and its main root ball into small wood chips, extending deep below the ground surface to ensure the tree will not regrow.
Our team takes precautions to contain the debris and protect the surrounding area. Once finished, you are left with a level surface that can be immediately covered with soil and sod. The nutrient-rich wood chips can also be repurposed as organic mulch for your garden beds. By removing the stump, you reclaim valuable yard space and eliminate a potential source of future problems.
Certain tree care challenges require a level of expertise that goes beyond routine maintenance. Our specialized arborist services offer Ocala property owners access to advanced diagnostics and strategic guidance for their most complex tree-related concerns. As experienced tree professionals, we provide in-depth consultations, detailed health assessments, and tree risk evaluations. This is particularly valuable for managing the heritage oaks on Ocala’s historic properties or assessing the safety of trees in public-facing commercial landscapes. Our deep understanding of Ocala’s soil conditions, climate patterns, and common tree ailments allows us to deliver accurate diagnoses and effective management plans.
If you are planning a new construction project or a major landscape renovation, our arborists can develop a comprehensive tree preservation strategy to protect your most valuable trees from construction-related damage. We can provide the authoritative reports needed for permits or insurance purposes and serve as your trusted advisor for any long-term tree management decisions.
Planting a new tree is one of the best investments you can make in your property’s future. It enhances curb appeal, provides shade, and contributes to the local ecosystem. Our professional tree planting service ensures your new tree gets the best possible start. We begin with an on-site consultation to help you select the best tree species for your goals and Ocala’s environment. We’ll consider factors like soil type, sunlight exposure, drainage, and the tree’s mature size to ensure it thrives without interfering with structures or power lines.
Our team handles the entire planting process, including site preparation, digging the right-sized hole, amending soil if needed, and carefully positioning the tree for healthy root growth. Finally, we provide clear instructions on watering, mulching, and care to help your tree thrive.
Ocala’s landscape is distinguished by its magnificent mature trees, but their age and size can also make them vulnerable to structural issues. Heavy, over-extended limbs, split trunks, or weak branch unions can pose a serious risk, especially during Florida’s turbulent storm season. Our tree cabling and bracing services provide a non-invasive, proactive solution to support and preserve these invaluable trees. By installing high-strength steel cables in the upper canopy, we can link major limbs together, distributing weight and reducing movement during high winds.
For trees with existing splits or cracks, we can install rigid steel rods to bolt the compromised sections together, providing stability and preventing further damage. This support system is meticulously designed to reinforce the tree’s natural structure without harming it or detracting from its appearance. It is a smart, preventative investment that can add decades to a tree’s life, protecting your property and preserving the irreplaceable character of your landscape.
The sandy loam soil found throughout the Ocala area can often be deficient in the essential nutrients that trees need for robust health. Over time, this can lead to symptoms like pale or undersized leaves, slow growth, and increased susceptibility to pests and diseases. Our deep root fertilization service is designed to combat this problem directly. Using a specialized high-pressure injection tool, we deliver a custom-blended, slow-release liquid fertilizer into the ground, placing it directly within the tree’s critical root zone.
This direct infusion of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and other micronutrients stimulates vigorous root growth, enhances foliage color and density, and bolsters the tree’s natural defense mechanisms. Regular, professional fertilization is a key part of a proactive healthcare plan to keep your Ocala trees looking vibrant and healthy all year long.
True tree care is about more than just reacting to problems; it’s about preventing them. Our comprehensive tree healthcare programs are designed to provide consistent, proactive management for your landscape. We create customized, long-term care plans based on a thorough assessment of your property’s unique conditions. This includes analyzing soil health, identifying potential stressors, and monitoring for common local issues like oak wilt, scale insects, or fungal diseases.
Through regular inspections and targeted treatments, we help your trees build natural resilience against environmental pressures. This ongoing, expert care ensures your trees not only survive but truly thrive, remaining a strong and beautiful feature of your Ocala property for generations.
The key to successfully managing tree health issues is early and accurate detection. Many diseases and pest infestations can cause significant, irreversible damage if they are not identified and addressed promptly. Our expert inspection and diagnostic services provide a vital line of defense for your trees. Our experienced arborists conduct detailed visual examinations from root to crown, looking for subtle signs of trouble. This could include discolored foliage, unusual growths on the bark, canopy dieback, or evidence of wood-boring insects.
Once we provide an accurate diagnosis, we can recommend the most effective and targeted disease treatment plan. This may involve fertilization, soil amendments, or selective pruning to remove infected areas. Timely intervention can often save a valuable tree and prevent the problem from spreading to the rest of your landscape.
