Call (561) 454-8006 for service in Lantana
Estimates in Lantana are written, free, and usually same or next day. Lantana, incorporated in 1921, had about 261 homes affected by Wilma. Waterfront lots on the Lake Worth Lagoon and Hypoluxo Island can carry mangroves, which state law protects: an owner may trim only within set height limits, and anything more takes a professional mangrove trimmer.
Most of the work here is the same four jobs: oaks trimmed back off roofs, dead or storm-split trees taken down, palms cleaned of fronds and seed pods, and stumps ground so the spot can be used again.

Permits and timing
Tree permit rules change at every city line in Palm Beach County: unincorporated county lets an existing single-family home remove trees without a permit as long as the lot keeps its minimum required landscaping, Boynton Beach exempts platted single-family lots unless the tree is a specimen or part of a PUD plan, and West Palm Beach wants a tree alteration permit for most removals on developed lots. State law lets the owner of a single-family home remove any tree an ISA certified arborist or licensed landscape architect documents as an unacceptable risk. We confirm which rule covers your lot before the estimate.
Across Palm Beach County the window for structural pruning and storm prep is the dry season, roughly mid October to mid May, ahead of hurricane season on June 1, and the Solid Waste Authority warns that once a storm threatens it is too late to trim. Deadwood and hazard removal can be done any month.
