I started working with trees in 1989 as a Utility Arborist, from there I transitioned into the residential field. For 5 years, I worked under some of the regions premier Arborists of the day; Jean 'The Flying Frenchman' Marcoux, Guy Gantt, Hugh M. Westbury and Loren Westenberger, (namesake for the ISA Florida Chapter's 'Loren Westenberger Award'.)
Increasingly we're reminded of how dangerous tree work can be. Around the globe, hundreds of tree workers and homeowners are injured or killed every year due to lack of knowledge and experience. It's never been more important to hire a professional firm with an experienced staff that possess the experience to tackle any tree removal project.
The benefit of hiring an experienced ISA Certified Arborist to inspect your trees and offer you opinions and recommendations guarantees you one very valuable thing. Objectivity. Quite often homeowners have me out to give them advice on what needs to be done for their trees. Sometimes my answer is an honest Nothing.
Here at Lee Claxton, ISA Certified Arborist, we offer a complete tree removal service, start to finish. That includes the industries best equipment for removing the tree's stump as well! We have the right tools for the job, whether it be a massive Oak tree stump and root plate covering the entire yard or shrubbery and palm stumps in a hard to reach area.

I contacted Lee in a bit of a unique position in that I had gotten tree work completed but needed a permit. Not from the area I was unaware that I needed this. Lee listened to my issue and came up with a suitable solution to write a report using google photos and thoroughly highlighted the urgency by which the tree needed to be removed. He was able to turn this around in just a couple of days which will allow me to focus on getting it rectified with the city. Thank you Lee for the quick and thorough work!!

I will start by saying Lee came out at the time he said he would to walk through my yard to figure out what can be done for my aging water oaks. He listen to my goal and gave me options to extend the lives of my trees safely.
Once I was on the schedule he skilled team was prompt on the date provided. His time was professional and respected my yard while working on trimming my trees.
They cleaned up all the leaves from the roof and my gutters and raked away all the debris. It was one of the easiest interactions I have encountered.
These folks know what they are doing.
Highly recommend.

Lee is an amazing Arborist with plethora of expertise and experience. Lee is very punctual, is responsible, and respectful. He has created professional report/evaluation for us. His prices are reasonable and no job to small. I would highly recommend Lee and his spouse Michelle with any sort of pruning or removing trees, especially large trees, this can be dangerous work, leave it to the Lee the expert.

Best tree service in Pinellas!
Lee's crew did a great job pruning a very large oak tree in my backyard. They were very professional and efficient. There was no torn grass from the lift equipment they used and they left the property spotless when they finished. Great job guys! Highly recommend this company!

This crew went above and beyond! Lee was so knowledgeable and friendly during our consults. His team is incredibly polite, professional and worked their tails off the entire time they were here! I really appreciated them taking the steps to safely move everything out of the way for us, as we had some ginormous branches being cleared. Even after hours and hours of back-breaking labor, they stayed to clean our yards and street to look better than when they started! I highly and confidently recommend to anyone looking for a tree service.
