Owner & Lead Arborist
Mike Hernandez

- Emergency storm response & insurance documentation

- Live oak, pine, water oak, and palm specialists
Mike Hernandez founded Arbos Tree Service after more than a decade in the field. For the past 10 years he has climbed, rigged, and led crews on residential and commercial jobs across Jacksonville—from routine crown reductions on Riverside live oaks to emergency removals after hurricanes.
Mike is known on job sites for calm decision-making under pressure: reading lean, identifying decay, and planning drops when limbs threaten roofs, driveways, or utility lines. He has handled complex removals over pool enclosures, tight lots in San Marco and Mandarin, and storm-damaged oaks on insurance claims throughout Duval County.
Mike believes Jacksonville homeowners deserve plain-language explanations, fair pricing tied to real site conditions, and a crew that leaves the property cleaner than they found it.
In the field
Mike has led crews through post-hurricane cleanups across Jacksonville, removed lightning-struck pines over garage roofs in Mandarin, and restored clearance for live oaks crowding JEA service lines in Riverside. Clients describe him as straight-talking: he'll tell you when a tree can be saved with pruning and when removal is the safer call.
