Trimming that keeps your trees healthy — and off your roof
From palms by the pool to big oaks shading the house, we trim for safety, health and looks.
Roof & pool cage clearance
Limbs cut back from the roof, gutters, lanai screens and the power drop to your house.
Palm trimming
Dead fronds, seed pods and coconuts removed — without the over-cut “hurricane cut” that weakens palms.
Deadwood removal
Dead and broken branches are the first things to fall. We take them out before they come down on their own.
Oak & shade tree shaping
Crown raising over driveways, sidewalks and streets, plus shaping for a cleaner, balanced canopy.
HOA & commercial upkeep
Scheduled trimming for HOAs, businesses and property managers across both counties.

FAQ
Tree Trimming questions
How much does tree trimming cost in Sarasota and Charlotte County?
Most residential tree trimming runs roughly $200 to $1,000+ per tree, depending on the tree’s size, how much needs to come out, and how close it is to the house or pool cage. Palm trims are usually less. TD Trees gives you a free on-site estimate with a firm price before work starts.
How often should trees be trimmed in Florida?
Most hardwoods like oaks do best with a trim every 2–3 years, with young trees benefiting from more frequent structural pruning. Palms usually need cleanup once or twice a year as fronds die and seed pods form.
When is the best time to trim trees in Florida?
Late winter through spring is ideal for most trees. The key deadline is before hurricane season begins on June 1, so weak and overhanging limbs are gone before the first storm.
Do you top trees?
No. Topping cuts a tree back to stubs, which causes weak, fast regrowth that breaks easily in storms and can shorten the tree’s life. We use proper thinning and reduction cuts instead.
How much should a palm tree be trimmed?
Only dead or brown fronds, seed pods, flower stalks and coconuts should come off. Over-trimming live green fronds — the so-called “hurricane cut” — weakens the palm and doesn’t make it safer in a storm.
Do I need a permit to trim a tree?
Routine pruning usually doesn’t need a permit. Some local codes limit heavy pruning of protected trees, and mangrove trimming is regulated by the state. We’ll let you know if anything applies to your trees.
Can you trim branches near power lines?
Branches near the main lines on utility poles have to be handled by FPL or its contractors. For limbs near the line running to your house, we’ll look on-site and tell you the safe option.
Do you clean up after trimming?
Yes. Full cleanup and haul-off is part of every trim — branches and fronds are cleared and your yard is raked before we leave.
