We handle tree trimming, palm care, removals and storm cleanup across Jensen Beach and over the causeway on Hutchinson Island. Palm trimming here usually runs $75–$175 per palm, and coconut palms are de-nutted as part of the trim. Every job starts with a free written estimate.
Trees on the Indian River Lagoon
Jensen Beach grew up as a pineapple-growing town along the Indian River, and it still has the feel of an older waterfront community, with homes close to the lagoon and narrow lots that run back from the river roads. That shapes the work: lots of coconut, sabal and royal palms, live oaks shaped by the onshore wind, sea grape, and the odd Australian pine left from decades ago. Salt air and sandy soil mean trees here are often more stressed than the same species a few miles inland.
The jobs we do most around Jensen Beach
- Coconut and royal palms. Trims and de-nutting before hurricane season, when every loose coconut becomes a hazard to windows and cars.
- Wind-shaped oaks. Thinning and deadwood work on live oaks that lean away from the water.
- Australian pine removal. Taking down tall, shallow-rooted casuarinas near homes before a storm does it.
- After the storm. Emergency cleanup on the mainland and the island, starting with anything resting on a roof.

Treat these Jensen Beach figures as estimates. They help you plan, but tight lagoon-side access or island parking can change the number, which is why we price on site.

Jensen Beach questions
Do you work on Hutchinson Island?
Yes. Condos and homes on the island are reached over the Jensen Beach Causeway, and we work there regularly for palm trimming, sea grape work and storm cleanup.
How does salt air affect trees in Jensen Beach?
Salt spray burns the leaves on the side facing the water and can stunt trees that aren't salt tolerant. Sabal palms, sea grape and live oak handle it well. Trees that struggle near the lagoon tend to drop limbs early, so they're worth checking before storm season.
Can you trim sea grape?
Yes. Sea grape takes trimming well and is often kept as a hedge or small tree near the dunes and lagoon. Coastal rules can apply to vegetation near the beach, so tell us where it's growing and we'll check before cutting.
