Family Owned & Operated by Father and Son Team Steve Judy, Sr and Steven Judy, Jr
Serving Sarasota County Residents For Over 35 Years...
After moving from Springfield, Ohio in 1984, I met my wife, Shawn (a Florida native) and began working for a local tree service. Together, we started a family and our own company, Action Tree Service. We later started a second venture, All County Hauling, and sold the tree business. In 2008, we decided to combine both business concepts and formed Steve's Tree & Hauling Service.
Our son, Steven Jr has grown up helping me in the business, so it's only natural that he would follow in my footsteps. After working as a cell tower climber, Steven Jr realized that his heart was in the tree business and joined forces with me full time. In 2013, we made it official and Steve's Tree & Hauling Service became a 50/50 partnership between father and son.
After attending Florida Gulf Coast University, our daughter, Alyssa, expressed her interest in the family business. She joined the team and has become an invaluable asset. She has a love for arboriculture and a knack for keeping the crew organized and on track.
It isn't always easy, but I have found the most success and the most joy working with my children!

Steve and crew were wonderful from beginning to end!!!! Thank you so much! We highly recommend them for your tree needs. You gies rock!!!!🤗
Great family-run business! Honest, efficient, and highly competent. Can handle specialty jobs. Friendly and kind, top notch service!
We had a large bismark palm removed - another casualty of Hurricane Ian. Steve's Tree Service did an excellent job! Great family owned business, professional, personable, and best price. We will be sure to refer them to our friends and neighbors!
After receiving several estimates for trimming several large overhanging branches, we chose Steve's Tree Service. Our appointment was for Oct 28 - ironically the day hurricane Ian hit Sarasota. Steve and his crew arrived two days later despite suffering wind and water damage to their own homes and equipment to do our job. I cannot give this business enough praise for their great communication, diligence, hard work and professionalism.
Great job taking down two washingtonia palms and leaving yard clean 👏 👌
Steve and his family were absolutely phenomenal! Just about as important to me as the work they did was the precision and cleanliness of the job they performed. Our yard was not ripped up and the clean up of 2 huge pines and an oak was spotless. I highly, highly recommend these guys!
Highly recommend! I was very impressed with Steve and his staff. They were all very professional throughout my service. I had to get a dead tree removed on my property and I felt the quote was quite reasonable. Communications were excellent. Don't hesitate to call them if you need any tree work done!
Steve and his team were excellent from beginning to end. A reasonable quote to remove 2 very large trees and grind the stumps. Even though I had to wait for HOA approval, they put me on the calendar. On the day of removal, they were on time, efficient and left the area very clean. I would not use anyone else moving forward. Reputable and efficient!
Very nice, great job! Large Oak removal in Nokomis.
Twice now I've called Steve's Tree to come out - once I wanted a large-ish rubber tree stump grinded that a previous contractor left me hanging on... Steve and his family brought the Bobcat back there and literally just lifted it from the ground, cleaned up, and hauled it off. Might not sound impressive, but it was! Then today, they came out and did some massive cutbacks for me required by my insurance company. Very professional, clean up after themselves, communicative, on time, and helpful. And they've got the right tools to do the job. I feel very fortunate that I found them, and appreciate the good they did on both jobs I had them do. And, didn't take out my backflow preventer like the previous guy did!
| Great work! We're very happy with the tree removal as well as trimming other trees along the fence. On time, and great clean up. Highly recommend. |
Steve and his family were on time and took down a large Bizmark Palm tree very close to the house. It only took them an hour to cut down, stump grind the base and haul everything away. They have the right tools for the job. Very professional and fair in price. Insurance provided quickly upon request. Would recommend them to all my family and friends. Great job. Thanks again.
What amazing service! They removed a dead tree that threatened our lanai and part of our house. It was a rough job because of the narrow path to the backyard made it impossible to get big equipment back there, so they had to do a lot of manual work. They rocked it and were so fast. Highly recommend them! Couldn't say enough great things and the customer service with the company is excellent!
We contracted Steve's Tree and Hauling in May 2019 to remove very large trees from our yard in Venice. I was blown away how wonderful the finished job looked. The office staff and workers there were very helpful and a pleasure to work with. Our neighbors were very impressed how they came in and took care of this large job quickly and efficiently. Very honest and do wonderful work. Can't go wrong hiring them.
We had a small job for them to trim an oak away from our house. Showed up on time for estimate and when the work was to be done. Everyone is very friendly. They did an amazing job in a short period of time and left our house without even a stick in the yard. Lived here my entire life and I've never dealt with a company so reliable. I highly recommend and I can't say enough good things!
FANTASTIC service & Quality of work ! Showed up on time and ready to work. Whole crew was hands on and didnt stop until the job was done. Price was super fair, and competitive (awesome deal !) compared to other local companies. Very impressed, would recommend! (40ft pine tree removed)
We are so happy with Steve’s Tree Service! They did an amazing job!! They went above and beyond and cleaned up when they were finished. Will definitely use again and recommend to anyone!
Steve and his crew did a fantastic job on a grand leaning toward my house. I would recommend them to anyone, Great Job 10 stars
Highly recommend Steve and his crew. They did a great job.
The crew arrived early, got unloaded and got right to work. They addressed concerns, answered questions and protected our irrigation drip line when it was suddenly uncovered! Within an hour, the stump was gone, the tree was trimmed, and the debris was in their trailer! I would highly recommend this vendor and will put them in our community database today. Great work!
Steve and company did an awesome job. It was the 2nd time I used them. They cleared 3 trees, grinded the stumps and raked. I’m very please with the work they did.
On time, professional and fair. Excellent service.
They came and remove a very dangerous tree for me and gave me a more the fair price and cleaned up nice. Thank you for saving my house.
Hired Steve's Tree Service to remove dead tree's from our community property. Never used this company before but won't be our last time. Not only did they show up on time, but they did exactly what we wanted. They cut down dead trees on the property, grinded down the stump, removed all debris and raked the grass. They were very professional, had great equipment and we were extremely pleased with the experience and results.
I just had a huge job done on my back yard by Steve's Trees. It had been taken over by pepper trees and as a single mom, I had really let it get away from me. They cleared the lot of the pepper trees, trimmed branches on some other trees and hauled everything off. The job took two days instead of one but they made sure it was done right and for the price they had quoted me, which was reasonable. It's a family run business and they were really nice.
Incredible work ethic and highly skilled.
Steve and his crew showed up in time and did an awesome job trimming my tress, very professional and realiable service at a fair price. Thanks a million.
We had a full day's work for Steve's tree service that included removal of 6 trees and their stumps, and extensive trimming of three other large trees. The crew was professional and efficient and their teamwork was most impressive. They had all the necessary equipment to do the job safely and quickly, including two bucket trucks, a stumper and truck with large trailer to haul it all away. They came in with the best estimate for the job and also took away a couple old stumps we had laying around, did not increase the price. Both front and back yards were impacted by the work and they thouroughly cleaned everything up before they left. We are beyond satisfied, our trees look wonderful. I would recommend this crew to anyone.
These guys do a fantastic job. They came out and canopied a huge tree in my yard and did it in record time, and cleaned up beautifully behind themselves. I'll be calling them again soon for another tree that needs some work. Highly recommend them!
I am a residential real estate Broker for 28 years and the experience from start to finish with Steve's Tree Service was absolutely the best I have witnessed of any contractor! He arrived ahead of schedule for the job quote and accommodated our tight schedule without hesitation. The work was done on time, professionally and with safety as the top priority. Steve and his son removed 3 very large pine trees from our property without damaging any other tree(palms) and the large delicate cactus plant at the base of the largest tree. The patience and teamwork I witnessed was phenomenal and the work was completed expeditiously. Both Steve and Steve Jr's expertise-knowledge & equipment- in tree removal is phenomenal. Look no further! These guys are The Best!!
Steve's tree removal team is all family and totally professional . They removed a huge bischofia tree from my front yard and hauled all debris in a thorough and pleasant manner. I recommend them highly and will utilize their services in the future.
Dying and dead trees had to be removed from our back yard. The work was difficult and dangerous. Steve, his son, Steve, and their crew did a magnificent job. They were professional, communicated effectively what needed to be done and worked for a fair price. The job was completed in a timely manner, and they cleaned up efficiently. I highly recommend them for any tree work you might need to have done
Steve's removed my trees and left the site in great condition. They performed the work in great timeliness and went beyond what was expected. Great people to have working around my yard.
Steve asked enough questions to accurately detainee what we wanted and gave a reasonable estimate. We asked him to do the work as he described he would. He and his crew were on time, worked quickly, and did exactly what we wanted. Excellent!
Had a tree removed and stump ground. They were very businesslike, no schmoozing or small talk. Very prompt, great job, great clean-up, very fair price. HIGHLY recommend!
Steve' s Tree Service, comprised of Steven Judy, Sr. and Steven Judy, Jr. is the best tree removal service I have ever used. I needed to have some large trees in a tight backyard removed, and Steve (Sr.) understood exactly what I needed. He told me how the service would be done, what equipment he was using (professional headgear with in ear speaker and communication mic) as well as trucks, and what surrounding plants, if any, might be injured or should be moved. He brought up the issue of license and insurance, I did not have to ask.
The quality of work was far better and the price was far less than another tree service outfit, which, unfortunately, had done some prior work for me.
