FOR EVERY JOB

Placida is the old fishing village at the south end of Placida Road (CR 775), on Gasparilla Sound by the Boca Grande Causeway toll bridge. It's still a working waterfront with fish houses, marinas, and boat ramps, surrounded by newer homes and golf and marina communities across Cape Haze, with Rotonda just inland.

Much of this area was built on former pine flatwoods and mangrove shoreline, so lots often mix tall slash pines, oaks, cabbage palms, and coastal trees close to homes, docks, and canals. Salt wind off the sound, soft ground near the water, and community rules about what can come down all have to be part of the plan.

That Tree Guy LLC provides owner-led tree service in Placida and Cape Haze for homeowners, waterfront properties, and HOA communities that want the job planned carefully and finished clean. Licensed and insured. Shaun is on site from the first look to the last load in the trailer.

What Tree Services Do You Offer in Placida?

That Tree Guy LLC handles the core tree services Placida and Cape Haze properties need. Here that means working around waterfront lots, pool cages, golf course edges, community standards, and tall pines left over from the original woods.

Tree Removal in Placida

Tall slash pines and oaks close to homes are common here. Removal is done in sections, with rigging planned around the house, the pool cage, docks or seawalls, and neighboring properties before the first cut.

Tree Trimming & Pruning

Oaks and pines in Placida and Cape Haze build canopy weight over roofs, driveways, and lanais. Regular trimming before storm season keeps trees balanced and keeps limbs off the house and the power drop.

Stump Grinding 

Once a tree is down, grinding takes the stump below grade, removes the trip and mower hazard, and leaves the spot ready for sod or new planting.

Emergency Tree Service

When a limb is on the roof, a pine is leaning toward the house, or a trunk has split, the response has to be controlled, not rushed. Placida sits right on the water and took the full force of Charley in 2004 and Ian in 2022, and more wind and surge from Helene and Milton in 2024.

Storm Cleanup

After a wind event, Placida Road neighborhoods fill with downed pines, uprooted palms, and broken tops. Post-storm work starts with an assessment of what is still sound, what needs to come down safely, and what gets hauled away before the next system.

Palm Trimming & Removal

Cabbage palms, coconut palms, and other ornamental palms around homes and community entrances need regular cleanup of dead fronds and seed pods, and leaning palms should be checked before they become a problem.

HOA & Community Tree Maintenance

Many Cape Haze and Placida communities have standards for what can be trimmed or removed. That Tree Guy LLC works with homeowners, HOA boards, and property managers with a written scope and proof of insurance ready for approval.

Who Is This Service Built For in Placida?

Two types of people usually call That Tree Guy LLC in Placida.
The first is a homeowner on a waterfront or wooded lot with a tall pine, an oak, or a palm growing over the roof, the pool cage, or toward the dock. It is not an emergency yet, but they know the next storm could make it one. They want a straight answer about what needs to happen and a job done without torn-up turf or debris left near the water.
The second is an HOA board member or property manager in one of the golf or marina communities who needs a contractor that shows up licensed and insured with paperwork ready, explains the plan before work starts, and leaves common areas clean.
This service is for the property owner who wants it done right the first time, not the one comparing bids on price alone.

Owner-Led Tree Work in Charlotte County

That Tree Guy LLC is not a franchise and not a volume crew rotating through jobs. Shaun built the business from a truck and a chainsaw and has been on site for every job, with nearly 10 years in tree work. Before that he spent years as a professional kiteboarder, which taught him to read wind and water, stay calm under pressure, and respect what a bad decision costs. He's also a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt, and he runs a job site with the same discipline.
Owner-led means the person accountable for the result is on your property making the calls, not managing from an office.

How Much Does Tree Service Cost in Placida?

Pricing depends on the size of the tree, access to the work area, risk level, and cleanup involved. Most jobs start at $450.

Most jobs start at $450

Waterfront access, pool cages, tall pines near the house, and community rules can add rigging or equipment planning, and that is explained before work starts, not after the invoice arrives. Most jobs fall between $450 and several thousand dollars depending on scope and access. The goal is not to be the cheapest tree service in Placida. It is to finish the job without creating a bigger problem later.

When Should Placida Homeowners Call for a Tree Evaluation?

You do not need to wait for an emergency. It is worth scheduling an evaluation when:

- A tall pine or oak near the house starts to lean or drop limbs
- A palm near a dock, seawall, or pool cage changes shape or loses its crown
- Limbs are touching or hanging over the roof, lanai, or service line
- A storm has left cracked limbs, hangers, or a split trunk
- Your HOA has flagged a tree or you need approval before removal
