Jacksonville’s sandy soil loosens fast under heavy tropical rain, while high wind gusts and afternoon lightning, and live oaks, water oaks, and tall pines give way.

Show Me Tree Service brings 24/7 emergency tree service in Jacksonville, FL to homes from business properties. We handle urgent tree care for broken limbs, an uprooted tree, or a trunk leaning dangerously toward your roof. Our crew secures the site, clears your driveway, and keeps the danger from spreading.
Welcome To Show Me Tree Service
We Understand Emergency Needs of Jacksonville Residential & Commercial Properties
Every property faces storm risk differently, so our emergency crew adjusts to what you own.
Our residential tree service handles oaks and pines resting on roofs, garages, or fences in neighborhoods like Mandarin, Ortega, Riverside, and San Marco. These areas’ tight lots and mature canopies call for crane work over open-yard drops. So, homeowners need fast access restored to driveways and walkways above anything else.
For commercial tree service, we cover a different set of demands. Business properties along Beach Boulevard, JTB, Deerwood, Downtown, and the Westside deal with trees down across parking lanes, retention ponds, and delivery routes. We bring the same professional work to storefronts, carports, and signage, matched to the site in front of us.

Storm-damaged trees can threaten homes, vehicles, and access routes. With decades of local experience, our team knows the trees and conditions found across Jacksonville.
We’ve served Jacksonville since 1990, from the old canopy streets of Ortega to the open pine acreage out west. Water oaks, laurel oaks, and slash pines each fail differently in our sandy soil. So we check tree health and structure before deciding whether to remove, stabilize, or prune.
Blocked driveways and active hazards near your roofline get priority the moment you call, whether you’re off San Jose Boulevard or near Deerwood. Our emergency tree response runs 24/7 for homeowners and businesses alike.
Our licensed and insured team follows proper safety practices when handling unstable or storm-damaged trees. This matters when trees threaten homes, vehicles, or power lines with added risk.
Large trees over homes or commercial structures require controlled removal with the right equipment. We use cranes, climbers, bucket trucks, and rigging systems to move heavy sections.
Every hazardous tree removal comes with before-and-after photos and itemized notes. That paperwork becomes your insurance documentation when you file with your adjuster after a Northeast Florida storm.
Our planned work starts with a free, written estimate and no deposit upfront. You get a clear explanation of the work and there will be no surprise later.
Most calls start with issues like fallen trees, blocked access or broken limbs. Here’s how we handle each part of the problem with our urgent tree service.
We handle large tree removal for trees over homes, garages, and fences in canopy-heavy areas like Mandarin and Riverside. Big oaks and pines get sectioned apart, not dropped whole. When a trunk rests on a roof, crane extraction keeps tight lots like these under control.
Hazardous tree limbs can fail and fall any time, so we stay prepared for it. Along older streets near Avondale and Fort Caroline, split trunks and widow-makers hang over driveways and walkways. We remove them before they finish coming down on their own.
Not every damaged tree needs to go and can be protected. We cable, brace, or structurally prune trees worth saving, the same care behind landmarks like Downtown’s Treaty Oak. Mature laurel oaks across Baymeadows and Lake Lucina often qualify for this kind of support.
Tree damage to the garage or roofline calls for quick action anywhere from Southside to the Northside. We remove the tree, then tarp any exposed opening right away. That buffer keeps Florida’s next downpour out of your home.
A blocked driveway stops your whole day cold, whether you’re near the Westside or off Blanding Boulevard. We clear trunks and debris from walkways, driveways, and access roads fast. Parking lots, delivery lanes, and storefronts along Beach Boulevard and JTB get the same priority.
When the recent squall lines swept Northeast Florida, we cleared downed trees near the St. Johns River and the Southbank. For this kind of event, we cut, chip, and haul logs and branches from your property. Signs, fences, and landscaping stay clear of leftover debris.
Jacksonville’s saturated soil, sudden thunderstorms, and shallow-rooted oaks turn storm damage into a real safety problem fast. That’s why our Show Me Tree Service team moves through each hazard in order, for all properties across Duval County.
Our emergency team checks the fallen or damaged tree and inspect roofs, vehicles, and nearby structures. Crews look for root plate shift in soaked ground and confirm tree stability. We flag any power line hazard before work begins.
We keep your family, pets and children back and set a clear safety zone around the tree. If downed power lines or live electrical lines are involved, we call JEA first. No one cuts near energized lines until power is confirmed off.
Our crews pick stable ground for equipment, using mats over soft sandy soil near the St. Johns River when needed. We set tree rigging lines to control movement during cuts. Tight lots in Marietta and Edgewood often call for crane-assisted tree removal over ground rigging.
Our tree climber or bucket truck crew cuts from the crown downward, section by section. Heavy pieces get lowered with controlled lowering, never dropped free. This protects your roof, fences, and remaining landscaping, even on narrow, tree-lined streets like Lem Turner Rd or Blair Rd S.
Driveways and entrances get cleared first, restoring safe access fast. Fallen tree cleanup includes wood chipping branches and log removal from your yard. Damaged roof sections get tarped before the next round of rain.
When conditions allow, we photograph the tree before removal begins. We record structural damage and provide itemized service details. These records support insurance claim documentation when you file with your adjuster.
24/7 Availability For Emergency Situations
Fast, reliable help whenever you need it.
Costs for emergency tree removal in Jacksonville ranges from $800 to $5,000+ per tree, depending on size and access. A tree resting on a roof or needing crane work can run higher. We give you a clear written estimate so you get a clear idea.
Insurance usually covers removal only if the tree damages a covered structure or blocks a driveway. A tree that lands in an open yard is often out-of-pocket. We document the damage clearly so your claim stays hassle-free.
Sometimes, yes. If the trunk and root system are still structurally sound, cabling or pruning can extend the tree’s life. So, we assess each tree carefully before recommending removal over stabilization.
The property where the tree lands is usually responsible for the damage. But that changes if the tree owner knew it was dead or hazardous beforehand. We provide documentation that helps clarify what happened either way.
If a tree falls on your property, keep everyone away and check for downed power lines first. Take photos of the damage before moving anything. Then call us and your insurance carrier to get the process started.
