Our Estero Tree Services
Tree Pruning & Trimming
In Estero, where summer storms and hurricane season are inevitable, proper pruning isn’t cosmetic—it’s structural. Weak branch unions, overgrown canopies, and poor weight distribution turn trees into liabilities during high winds. Our ISA-Certified Arborists use science-backed pruning techniques to reduce wind resistance, eliminate hazards, and promote healthy growth.
What makes us different: We follow ANSI A300 standards (the gold standard for tree care). We never use climbing spikes on living trees (which wound the bark and invite disease). And we’ll tell you if your tree doesn’t need pruning—because our reputation matters more than a sale.
Palm Tree Trimming & Care
Estero’s planned communities feature thousands of palms that require proper maintenance to stay healthy and beautiful. Most tree services get palm care wrong—over-pruning (the “hurricane cut”) actually weakens palms and makes them more vulnerable to storm damage. Our team follows University of Florida IFAS guidelines for proper palm care.
Estero palm services:
- Proper frond removal (no over-pruning)
- Fertilization programs (manganese, potassium)
- Disease diagnosis and treatment
- Lethal Bronzing Disease management
- HOA-compliant maintenance
HOA & Community Standards Compliance
Many Estero communities have strict HOA guidelines for tree maintenance and appearance. We understand these requirements and ensure all work meets or exceeds community standards. We can also provide documentation and photos for HOA approval when needed.
Tree Removal
We always try to save trees when possible. But when a tree is diseased beyond recovery, structurally compromised, or posing a threat to your home, removal is the responsible choice. Our licensed team uses specialized equipment and precision rigging to remove trees safely—protecting your property, landscaping, and neighboring homes.
Complete cleanup guaranteed. We grind stumps, haul debris, and leave your property spotless.

What Estero Homeowners Are Saying
"The guys really had their hands full with my mess of a coconut tree. It hadn't been trimmed for probably five years and it was full of coconuts. The team did a fantastic job! I highly recommend Joshua Tree to anyone that needs palm tree trimming! They go above and beyond any other company you can hire. The cleanup was remarkable. They left no mess for me whatsoever! Superior teamwork! A+"
Heidi Clark
"The office staff and onsite employees were professional, skilled and courteous. Two palms over 40' were struck by lightning. To make it more difficult they were both next to the pool cage, canal, dock and the neighbor's fence. All the cutting, moving, grinding and debris pickup was done in a few hours. The clean up was very thorough...you could hardly tell they'd been here!"
Homeowner
"This tree company is 10/10. 💯 trustworthy and they show up when they say they will. They are professional. They put down plywood so they didn't destroy my lawn. They cleaned up really well. My Royal Palm was 60 feet and a healthy tree, but too huge to have near the house with increasing hurricane threats. It was heartbreaking to do, but I had to be proactive. Pricing is reasonable. They also care about local wildlife and donate their trucks to rescue and renest local raptors. Great company!"

Common Tree Problems in Estero
(And How We Solve Them)
Hurricane Damage & Storm Preparation
Estero sits directly in the path of Gulf Coast hurricanes. Proper tree maintenance isn’t optional—it’s essential for protecting your home and meeting community standards. We assess structural weaknesses, reduce wind sail through strategic pruning, and remove hazardous trees before storm season.
Ganoderma Root Rot
This deadly fungal disease is common in Estero and attacks the root systems of hardwood trees. Once infected, trees become structurally unstable and must be removed to prevent catastrophic failure. Early detection is critical.
Lethal Bronzing Disease (Palms)
This fatal bacterial disease is spreading rapidly through Estero. It kills palms within months and requires immediate removal to prevent spread to neighboring trees. Early detection is critical.
Spiraling Whitefly
This pest primarily affects palms and other tropical plants, covering leaves with a white, waxy substance. While not typically fatal, it weakens trees and makes them more susceptible to other problems. Common in Estero’s planned communities.
Lightning Strike Damage
Estero experiences frequent lightning strikes during summer storms. Trees struck by lightning often suffer internal damage that isn’t immediately visible. Our arborists can assess lightning-damaged trees and determine if they’re safe or need removal.
