01Local Context

Pinecrest’s acre-plus lots hold some of the largest private canopies in Miami-Dade — live oaks, royal poincianas, and mature palms that need periodic structural pruning to stay sound.

Bigger trees mean bigger stakes in a storm. Pre-season structural pruning and honest risk assessment are core to the work here.

03Questions

Tree care in Pinecrest.

Do I need a permit to trim my tree in Miami?

Tree pruning in Miami-Dade generally does not require a permit unless more than 25 percent of the live canopy is removed. Routine, standards-based pruning usually stays below that threshold. Tree removal, however, requires a permit for most species.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Miami-Dade?

Yes. Miami-Dade County requires a permit to remove most trees, with limited exemptions for certain species and prohibited invasives. An on-site assessment confirms whether a permit is required, and Subtropical Arborists can prepare the application.

What does an ISA Certified Arborist do?

An ISA Certified Arborist is trained and credentialed in the care of trees, including assessment, pruning to ANSI A300 standards, risk evaluation, and diagnosis. Subtropical Arborists is owned and operated by Benyah Andressohn, ISA Certified Arborist FL-286760A, who performs the work personally.

Can you give me a price from photos?

No. Every quote follows an on-site visit. Photos help prepare and prioritize the visit and can save an unnecessary drive, but they do not replace seeing the tree in person.
