Local Tree Care Built for South Florida Conditions
Trees in Sunrise don’t grow the way they do anywhere else. Sandy soil sits over limestone, which means root systems stay shallow and wide instead of anchoring deep. Add a summer of afternoon storms, a water table that’s never far down, and sustained winds every hurricane season, and you get trees that look perfectly healthy right up until the day one goes over.
We work on Sunrise properties year-round, so we know what’s actually growing here. Ficus that have outgrown their space and started lifting driveways and pool decks. Black olives dropping limbs after a wet stretch. Live oaks that haven’t been thinned in a decade and now catch wind like a sail. Queen palms with old fronds that turn into projectiles the moment a storm band moves through. Royal poincianas that put on beautiful color and brittle wood in the same season.
Whether you need one palm trimmed before hurricane season or a sixty-foot ficus taken down between a house and a pool cage, we’ll come out, look at it, and give you a straight price in writing.
Our Tree Services
Tree Removal
When a tree is dead, diseased, storm-damaged, or simply in the wrong place, we take it down safely — including tight removals near homes, pools, fences, and power lines. Rigging and crane work available for trees that can’t simply be felled. Stump grinding available as an add-on.
Tree Trimming & Pruning
Proper thinning reduces wind resistance, removes deadwood before it falls, and keeps canopies off your roof and out of your neighbor’s yard. We prune to ANSI A300 standards — no hat-racking, no lion-tailing, no shortcuts that leave a tree weaker than we found it.
Stump Grinding
Old stumps attract termites, sprout suckers, and make a yard impossible to landscape. We grind 8 to 12 inches below grade, haul the chips or leave them as mulch, and backfill so you can sod or plant right away.
Emergency & Storm Damage
Trees don’t fall on a schedule. We respond around the clock for trees down on homes, vehicles, driveways, and power lines, and we work directly with property owners on insurance-related storm cleanup.

Get Ahead of Hurricane Season
Hurricane season runs June 1 through November 30, and the busiest weeks for tree work in Broward County are the two before a named storm arrives — which is exactly when every crew in the county is booked and prices climb.
The work that actually protects a property has to happen before that. Thinning a dense canopy so wind passes through instead of pushing against it. Removing deadwood and hangers that become airborne in 60 mph gusts. Clearing limbs off roofs and away from service drops. Taking down trees that are already leaning, already hollow, already telling you what they intend to do.
An hour of pruning in April is a fraction of what emergency removal costs in September, and insurance doesn’t cover damage from a tree you were already on notice about. If you haven’t had your trees looked at since last season, now is the time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does tree removal cost in Sunrise?
Most residential removals in Sunrise fall between $400 and $2,500 depending on height, trunk diameter, species, and access. A small palm in an open yard is at the low end. A large ficus or oak between a house and a pool cage, requiring rigging or a crane, is at the high end. Access matters more than most people expect — a tree a truck can pull up to costs meaningfully less than the same tree behind a locked gate in a back yard. We give free on-site estimates because guessing over the phone helps nobody.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Sunrise?
Sometimes. The City of Sunrise regulates removal of certain trees, and requirements vary by species, size, and whether the property sits in a designated area or an HOA community. Florida law also carves out an exemption for trees a licensed arborist or landscape architect documents as a danger to people or property. We’ll tell you during the estimate whether your removal likely needs a permit and what the process involves, and we’ll point you to the right department rather than guessing on your behalf.
When should trees be trimmed in South Florida?
Late winter through spring — roughly February through May — is ideal, ahead of hurricane season and before the summer growth push. Palms are the exception and can be cleaned nearly year-round, though you want old fronds and seed pods off before storm season regardless. Deadwood, storm damage, and limbs resting on a roof should be handled whenever you notice them, not saved for a season.
Do you handle emergencies after hours?
Yes. Trees on structures, blocked driveways, and storm damage get handled around the clock. Call (754) 399-3310 and describe the situation. One safety note that matters: if a tree is touching or near a power line, do not approach it and do not let anyone else approach it. Call FPL first, then call us. Lines can be live even when the power is out.
Will my insurance cover tree removal?
Generally, insurers cover removal when a tree has fallen on a covered structure — a house, a fence, a detached garage — and generally not when a healthy or dead tree is still standing, or when it fell in open yard without hitting anything. Policies also commonly cap debris removal at a set dollar amount. Coverage varies, so read your policy or call your agent. We provide documentation and photos to support claims, but your carrier makes the call.
Do you grind the stump too?
Stump grinding is a separate service, and we’ll quote it alongside removal so you can decide. Most homeowners do both at once, because it’s cheaper than bringing equipment back later. If you’re planning to replant or lay sod in that spot, grinding is essentially required — a buried stump will keep sprouting and will draw termites, which is not something you want ten feet from a house in South Florida.
What do you do with the debris?
Everything is hauled away and included in your quote. If you’d rather keep the wood chips as mulch for beds, or want logs cut to firewood length and stacked, tell us before we start and we’ll leave them. It costs you nothing either way — we’re happy not to haul it.
How far in advance do I need to book?
Routine trimming and removals are typically scheduled within a week. That window tightens considerably in May and June as hurricane season approaches, and it disappears entirely during an active storm watch, when every crew in Broward County is triaging emergencies. Booking preventive work early in the year is the reliable move, and it’s cheaper.
