Palm Tree Trimming in Puerto Rico
Palms need different technique than hardwoods. Over-trimming (the dreaded 'hurricane cut') damages the tree. We trim only what is necessary, following ISA palm pruning guidelines.
Final pricing depends on tree size, location, accessibility, and complexity. All estimates are free and in writing.

Frequently asked questions
How much does tree removal cost in Puerto Rico?
Most residential tree removals in Puerto Rico fall between $300 and $2,500 depending on size, location, and complexity. Palm trees typically run $150-$600. Large hazardous removals near structures can exceed $3,500. We provide free, no-obligation written estimates.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Puerto Rico?
Some species protected by DRNA (the Department of Natural and Environmental Resources) require permits. Trees in historic districts also require approval. We help our customers identify when a permit is needed and can assist with the application.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency tree service?
Yes. We dispatch 24/7 for fallen trees, trees on structures or vehicles, branches on power lines, and post-storm hazards. Call our main line and you'll reach a real dispatcher, not voicemail.
Are estimates really free?
Yes, every estimate is free and there is no obligation. We come out, evaluate the work, and provide a written quote you can keep.
Do you work across all of Puerto Rico?
Yes. We dispatch crews across all 78 municipalities. Response times for non-emergency work depend on distance and crew availability, but we serve the entire island.
How fast can you arrive in an emergency?
Within the San Juan metro and other coastal cities, we typically arrive in under 2 hours for true emergencies. After a major storm, response times depend on volume and road access, but emergency calls go to the front of the queue.
