Full Tree Care, Service by Service
Palm Tree & Tree Trimming
Regular trimming keeps palms and trees healthy, reduces storm risk, and improves curb appeal across San Diego properties. We only remove what needs to come off — never over-pruning.
Palm Tree Cleaning
Removal of dead fronds, seed pods and pest-prone debris that weigh down and weaken the crown.
Palm Tree Trimming & Shaving
Careful frond trimming and trunk shaving (skinning) for a clean, manicured look without damaging the trunk.
- Phoenix, Queen, King & Fan palms
- Sanitized tools between properties
Crown Cleaning, Lifting & Reduction
Canopy work that improves light, airflow and safety without changing the natural shape of the tree.
Crown Cleaning & Crown Lifting
Removing dead, diseased or crossing limbs, then raising the lower canopy for clearance over walkways, roofs and driveways.
Crown Reduction
Selective size reduction to relieve weight from storm-prone limbs while preserving the tree's structure.
- Reduces storm and limb-drop risk
- Improves clearance near roofs & lines
Tree Cutting & Removal
Complete, controlled removal for dead, diseased, leaning or unwanted trees — including tight residential lots.
Tree Cutting & Topping
Sectioned cutting for trees too tall or too close to structures for a single-piece fall, with careful topping only when structurally necessary.
Tree Removal
Full removal down to grade, including hauling — your lot left clear and ready for what's next.
- Rigging for tight or hazardous spots
- Full debris haul-away included
Tree & Hedge Maintenance
Ongoing care that keeps canopies, hedges and canyon-line properties under control between major services.
Tree Trimming & Tree Lacing
Interior thinning (lacing) that opens the canopy to wind and light while keeping the tree's natural silhouette.
Hedge Trimming & Tree Maintenance
Scheduled hedge shaping and canopy upkeep so your property never gets away from you.
- One-time or recurring visits
- Flat-rate hedge pricing available
Stump, Lot & Canyon Cleaning
From a single leftover stump to a fully overgrown canyon-adjacent lot, we clear it down to bare, usable ground.

Grinding stumps below grade so the area can be re-landscaped or paved over without regrowth.

Brush clearing and overgrowth removal to help meet San Diego defensible-space and fire-clearance requirements.
