Healthy, well-maintained palms are one of the best parts of owning property in Florida. Dead fronds, overgrown seed pods, and rough boots on the trunk aren't just an eyesore — they can attract pests and add wind-load before storm season. Dylan's Tree Service keeps your palms clean and healthy year-round.
We remove dead fronds and shape canopies before storm season to minimize wind resistance and projectile risk.
Sabal, Foxtail, Queen, Royal, Washington — we handle every palm species common to Tampa Bay and Pinellas County.
We follow proper frond-removal guidelines. No butchering green fronds that weaken the tree and invite disease.
Florida palms grow fast and require regular attention to stay clean and safe. In the Tampa Bay area, salt air, sandy soil, and back-to-back storm seasons put extra stress on palms. Regular trimming keeps them structurally sound and looking sharp — a clean palm says a lot about a property's curb appeal.
The biggest mistake we see is over-trimming. Some homeowners think stripping palms bare before hurricane season makes them stronger — it actually does the opposite. Removing too many green fronds stresses the tree and slows recovery after a storm. We trim to the proper 9–3 line and only remove what's dead, dying, or creating a hazard.
We assess your palms, count them, check heights, and give you a per-palm or flat-rate price.
Using aerial lifts or climbing gear for tall palms, we remove only what should come off.
Optional boot cleaning and seed pod removal for a cleaner finished look.
All fronds, seeds, and debris are hauled away or chipped before we leave.
