Serving Brandon · Hillsborough County
Holleywood Tree Service covers all of Brandon and the surrounding Hillsborough County communities of Bloomingdale, Providence Lakes, Sterling Ranch, and Heather Lakes. From single-tree removals to hurricane-prep trimming and 24/7 storm response, we bring precision rigging, crane support, and fair pricing to every Brandon job.
Brandon's older subdivisions are shaded by mature laurel oaks and water oaks — species that shed heavy limbs in Florida storms. Our structural pruning and deadwooding programs protect roofs, pools, and vehicles before hurricane season arrives.
After the last round of Gulf storms we ran emergency service through Heather Lakes (33511) in Brandon — limbs off a roof, a leaning trunk cabled and braced, and hauling done same day so the insurance adjuster had clean photos to work from.

“James and Alex along with their crew came up from Tampa to help out with tree removal after hurricane Isaias. Gave me a very reasonable quote for removing a tree that fell on my home and was able to get it done the next day. Professional, nice, honest guys. Ve…”
“Five stars all the way for Holleywood Tree Service! We had a massive, hazardous oak tree hanging directly over our roof that needed to come down before storm season. James and his crew came to Lutz on very short notice for emergency storm preparation. They saf…”

Brandon is dense, built-out suburbia with a canopy that is mostly older than the fences around it. Between Bloomingdale, Brandon Valrico Hills, Providence Lakes and the Lumsden and Kings corridors we work daily on mature laurel and water oaks planted when the subdivisions went in, now overgrown into rooflines, screened lanais and neighbor property lines. Nearly every Brandon job is an access job before it is a tree job.
The typical Brandon lot gives us a six to eight foot side yard, a screened pool cage on one side, a neighbor's fence on the other and utility drops overhead. Nothing gets felled in Brandon. Trees come out in controlled sections on rigging lines, and where the pick is over a screen enclosure or a lanai we bring the crane in and take the trunk out vertically rather than dragging brush across your cage. We lay plywood or track mats across turf and pavers so the driveway you have does not become the driveway you have to replace.
More Brandon calls than anywhere else in our service area start with a limb over a fence. Florida practice generally allows a property owner to prune what overhangs their line back to the boundary, but doing it badly destabilizes the tree and creates liability for whoever cut it. We prune to proper ANSI A300 cuts at the collar, keep the tree balanced, and where the tree itself is the problem we will talk to both households so the removal happens once, cleanly, with one crew and one cleanup.
Brandon takes squall line and outer-band wind rather than direct surge, and the damage pattern is consistent: snapped laurel oak leaders, pine tops through roofs, and hangers left dangling over driveways for weeks after the storm passes. Hangers are what hurt people — they come down without warning in the first breeze afterward. Our post-storm Brandon sweep clears standing hazards and hangers first, hauls same day, and documents every stage in photographs for your adjuster.
When we schedule what, based on Brandon soil, storm exposure and access conditions.
| Window | Focus | Why then |
|---|---|---|
| January – March | Major removals and structural work | Dry ground means equipment can reach the back yard without rutting it. Best window for large Brandon oak removals and stump grinding. |
| April – May | Pre-season roofline clearance | Pines and oaks pulled back off roofs and pool cages, deadwood out, weak unions cabled before the first summer line storms. |
| June – September | 24/7 storm response | Peak call season in Brandon. Emergency limb removal, hanger clearing, tarping coordination and same-day hauling. |
| October – December | Damage assessment and cleanup | Post-season walkthroughs to find cracked unions and hangers left in canopies, plus catch-up stump grinding and bed restoration. |
Brandon is unincorporated Hillsborough County, so county tree protection rules apply rather than City of Tampa rules. Protected and grand trees typically require review before removal, and dead or hazardous trees are handled differently — we document the defects with photographs during the estimate so the determination is supported. Bloomingdale, Providence Lakes and the Valrico-side communities commonly require HOA architectural approval and a certificate of insurance from the contractor; we send ours directly to the management company on request.
