Tree care in Gotha

Gotha is a small unincorporated community in west Orange County, tucked between Ocoee and Windermere and protected by the county as a rural settlement and, since 1995, a historic preservation district. Its historic core along Hempel Avenue and Gotha Road keeps a century-old canopy — including the six-acre Nehrling Gardens, one of Florida’s earliest experimental botanical gardens, running down to Lake Nally — while the subdivisions that have grown up around Lake Fischer and along Old Winter Garden Road carry much younger plantings. Work here splits accordingly: crown cleaning, deadwood removal, and preservation pruning on the old settlement trees, and structural pruning on the newer stock.

Common trees & palms here: live oak, laurel oak, camphor, sabal palm, southern magnolia, bald cypress.

Areas we cover around Gotha: Nehrling Gardens, Hempel Avenue, Lake Nally, Lake Fischer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you provide stump grinding in Gotha?

Yes. Sacred Tree Service serves Gotha and Orange County for stump grinding. We're based in Apopka, FL — about 17 miles from Gotha, well inside our 50-mile service radius.

How quickly can you respond in Gotha?

Most Gotha estimates are scheduled within 1–3 business days. Storm damage and emergency calls are prioritized — we’ll do our best to get a crew out the same day during active storm response.

How much does stump grinding cost in Central Florida?

Single stump grinding typically runs $200–$650 depending on diameter, root flare, and access. Large stumps (24-inch+ diameter, big root systems, old hardwood) can run $650–$900. Pricing is by diameter and access, and small standalone stump visits carry a service minimum — which is why bundling the grind with a removal is almost always the better deal. Multi-stump jobs on the same property are priced together — less per stump than individual visits.

How deep do you grind a stump?

Standard grinding takes the stump 6–12 inches below grade — enough to lay new sod, mulch over, or replant nearby. If you’re planning to put another tree right where the old one was, we can grind deeper (12–18 inches) and remove more of the lateral root system; this is typically priced separately. For pure cosmetic grinding (covering with mulch or grass), 6 inches is usually plenty.
