“I can’t say enough good things about Triangle Tree Service. We had a huge 60-year-old live oak that needed to be removed. It was growing into our foundation…they handled the massive tree with such care, making sure not to damage the roof or anything around it. And the cleanup? It was spotless!”

“We have used them twice to remove many hedges and a very large tree. They have state of the art equipment. They are very reliable, careful not to do any damage. When you have a tree hanging over your roof and with roots growing under the house, they take their time and do it safely. They stump grind and clean up everything. Great company to work with and their prices are fair and come with no surprises. Highly recommend!”

“We had 19 large palm and oak trees removed. There were also three large oak trees that were trimmed. The work was done over 4 days and the team was very courteous and professional. They left the residential lot cleaner than they found it. Very impressive workmanship. I highly recommend them. Great job.”

“We get a lot of trees cut as we are snowbirds, so a lot of trees we have done in Michigan. When we came to Florida, our big oak tree needed to be trimmed, and Ken came over and looked at our tree, and made sure we didn’t cut too much off because he wasn’t out to gouge us — he was out to make sure the tree remained healthy. Every two years they come back and do the same thing, and I have never had a company this good.”

“Outstanding service from Triangle Tree Service! The team was highly professional and genuinely kind throughout the entire process. They performed a thorough job trimming all the trees on our property, paying close attention to detail. Crucially, they completed a meticulous cleanup, leaving the area spotless. Their pricing was very reasonable for the quality of work delivered. We wouldn’t call anyone else!”

The work, and what it takes to finish it without incident.

An arborist looks at your tree before anyone quotes a price on it. Sometimes that visit ends with us telling you the tree is healthy and worth keeping. That conversation is free too.

01

Tree Removal

Limbs pieced down and lowered on ropes, or a clean fell where the yard gives us room to drop it. Dead wood, storm damage, a trunk leaning toward the bedroom window. It comes down without the roof ever knowing about it.

02

Trimming & Pruning

Structural pruning opens the canopy so hurricane wind moves through the tree rather than carrying the whole thing over. The time to do it is before June.

03

Stump Grinding

We grind the stump and the surface roots, fill the hole back in, and leave the ground flat enough to mow. That takes out a tripping hazard and the termites that move into whatever is left behind.

04

Hazardous Tree Assessment

A certified arborist inspects for root failure, cavities, included bark and lean, then puts what he finds in writing. Insurers, HOA boards and permit offices all want it on paper before they will act.

05

Emergency & Storm Damage

Trees on roofs, driveways blocked at two in the morning, a limb resting on a service drop. Someone answers the phone at any hour, and the truck that shows up is already carrying what the job needs.

06

Bobcat & Lot Clearing

Debris hauling, lot clearing and heavy moving across residential and commercial sites. We own the bucket truck, the lift and the crane, so nothing on your job waits for a rental yard to open.

Family owned & operated

Triangle Tree Service has worked out of St. Petersburg since 1999. Kenneth Johnston still climbs, still runs the crew, and still gives the estimates himself — the man who quotes your job is the same one responsible for it.

Tree work punishes carelessness harder than most trades do. A crew that is rushed, uninsured, or improvising a rigging plan halfway up is how a limb ends up through somebody's ceiling. We carry workers' compensation on our people and full liability on the work. And when a tree can be saved, we say so, even though removal pays better.

We've held an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau since our accreditation in 2016. Kenneth Johnston is ISA Certified Arborist #5826A, registered with the International Society of Arboriculture. Plenty of companies put certified arborist on a truck door. Ask for the number.

A tree on the house doesn't wait for business hours.

Split trunks, a limb down across the power drop, a driveway you cannot get the car out of. The trees that come down in a storm are almost always the ones that were already leaning, split, or root-lifted before it hit — an arborist can spot those in about ten minutes, free. Crews and equipment stay available around the clock, in season and out.
