Our Specialized Palm Maintenance Services
Palm trees are not like traditional hardwoods; they require a different set of tools and a specific approach to pruning and care.
- Precision Trimming and Pruning: We remove dead or dying fronds to improve the tree's appearance and prevent debris from falling on structures or walkways.
- Palm Skinning and Shaving: For homeowners looking for a clean, polished look, we offer trunk skinning. This process removes the rough "husk" of the tree to reveal the smooth trunk underneath.
- Fruit and Flower Cluster Removal: We remove messy fruit stalks and flower clusters before they drop, reducing litter on your lawn and preventing the attraction of pests.
- Safe Palm Removal: If a palm has outgrown its space or become a structural hazard, our crew uses specialized rigging to remove it safely without damaging surrounding landscaping.
Why Professional Palm Care Matters
Attempting to trim tall palms without professional equipment is dangerous. Because Bud’s Tri-County Tree Services Inc. has been operating in the Tri-County area since 1968, we possess the heavy-duty aerial lifts and safety gear necessary to reach even the tallest specimens.
Beyond aesthetics, regular palm maintenance is a critical safety measure. Overgrown palms can become significant fire hazards or nesting grounds for rodents. Our professional grooming services ensure your palms remain an asset to your property rather than a liability. We are fully licensed and insured, providing a level of reliability that only a long-standing local business can offer.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should palm trees be trimmed? Most palms in our region require trimming once or twice a year. This is typically done after the tree has finished its annual growth cycle to remove dead fronds and seed pods.
What is palm skinning? Palm skinning (or shaving) is the process of using a specialized tool to remove the old leaf bases from the trunk. This results in a smooth, uniform appearance and can help reduce the presence of pests that hide in the rough bark.
Are falling palm fronds dangerous? Yes. Large, dried fronds can be surprisingly heavy and often have sharp husks or thorns. Regular trimming prevents these from falling unexpectedly on vehicles, pets, or people.
Can you trim palms near power lines? Trimming trees near utility lines requires specific certifications and extreme caution. Our experienced crew can assess the situation and determine the safest way to manage palms that are encroaching on power lines.
