A Palm Beach estate drive lined with royal palms and live oaks at golden hour.

A small family crew · Boca to Port St. Lucie

The trees were here first.

Pruning, removal, palms, and storm work from Boca Raton to Port St. Lucie. One Stern family crew — insured, ISA-trained, and on time.

Owner on the lot

The person who prices it is the person who does the work.

Licensed & insured

Florida licensed, full liability. Certificates on request.

Site left clean

Chips hauled. Lawn raked. Driveway blown.

One crew, not a fleet

We take the jobs we can stand behind. We don’t subcontract your tree.

What we do

Work that respects the tree and the house.

South Florida trees grow fast, load up in storms, and sit close to tile roofs. We plan the cut for the next decade, not the next weekend.

Pruning & structural work

Crown cleaning, reduction, and clearance so the canopy stays strong through wet summers and named storms.

Palm work

Royals, coconuts, sabals, and foxtails. Frond pruning, skinning, and disease reads particular to South Florida.

Storm & emergency

Downed limbs, hung-up leaders, roof and power-line work. After a storm you get us — not a dispatcher and a subcontractor.

  • Tree removal

    Sectional takedown in tight lots.

  • Stump grinding

    Below grade, haul-away on request.

  • Arborist consult

    Health, risk, and a written plan.

Approach

A small crew. Clear numbers. No surprise extras.

We are one crew, not a fleet. Based in Palm Beach County, we take the work we can do ourselves from Boca through Port St. Lucie. The person who walks the lot is the person who prices it — and usually the one in the tree.

  1. 01

    Walk the property

    We look at the tree, the house, the wires, and how a truck gets in. Photos if we cannot be there same day.

  2. 02

    A number you can keep

    Written range, what is included, and what would change the price. No surprise extras after the saw starts.

  3. 03

    The work

    A climber, a groundsman, and the right rigging. Neighbors noticed, pets inside, street kept passable.

  4. 04

    Leave it better

    Wood gone or stacked as you asked. Stump quoted separately. Driveway blown before we pull out.

Neighbors

The kind of work people notice from the street.

They took a sixty-foot Australian pine down between two roofs in Gulf Stream. The pavers never moved.

After the last named storm, Stern was at the house in the morning. No hard sell. A clean yard by afternoon.
J. Patel · Boynton Beach
Our live oak looks considered now, not just shorter. They explained every cut before they made it.

Service area

From Boca to Port St. Lucie. We come ourselves.

Palm Beach, Martin, and St. Lucie counties. We do not run twelve trucks. You will see the same people from the first walk to the last chip. Just south of Boca in northern Broward — ask. We often can.
