Trimmed for the tree's health, not just the look
Structural trims, palm cleanups and hedge work, timed for hurricane season when it matters. Cut to open the canopy to wind and keep the tree's shape, not stripped bare.
When it's time to trim
- Palm fronds hanging brown, or boots still stacked from last season
- Limbs over the roof, the driveway, or a power line
- A canopy dense enough to catch wind like a sail in a storm
- Hedges or understory blocking a gate, a sign, or a sightline
- It's been more than a year since a royal or queen palm was cleaned up
How the job goes
We prune for structure first — removing what's dead, crossing, or weakly attached — then shape, and we time hurricane-season thinning for early summer, before the season peaks, not after the first named storm when every crew in Broward has the same idea. Palms get cleaned to the boot line, not skinned. Debris leaves the same visit.
Frequently asked questions
How often should palm trees be trimmed?
Once or twice a year for most South Florida palms — once before hurricane season to reduce wind load, and again mid-year if it's a heavy dropper like a royal or queen palm near a walkway or a pool. Over-trimming stresses a palm as much as neglecting it; we cut brown and hanging fronds, not the green ones holding the canopy up.
How much does tree or palm trimming cost?
It scales with the number of trees, their height, and access — a single palm cleanup is a different job than thinning a whole canopy line before storm season. We give one written price for the visit after an estimator sees the actual trees, not a per-tree rate quoted over the phone.
