Tree Removal In Key West Florida.

Tree removal process from top to bottom. What a great job and great guys. Thank you Nick and team.

Nick and his crew arrived today to remove a tree. The tree was too close to my home and was damaging it. Nick and his team were professional, polite, and a pleasure to work with. They were able to safety and completely remove my tree in well under an hour. I would hire them again tomorrow. What a great group of professionals and what great guys. I had a unique prospective on the process as I was able to watch the process from the second floor balcony of the house. Please consider A Caring Tree Service Company for your tree issues. Feel free to contact me for a personal reference. Michael Kasperski

Florida Keys Licensed Mangrove Trimming (305) 432-1764 Lower Keys

Here are several styles of trimming that can provide a pleasing view of the water.

While hedging is the form most commonly used, it often is the most

environmentally damaging. Other alternate styles can provide a view in a manner

that is less stressful to the mangroves and may require less maintenance.

Hedging:

Trimming mangroves into the hedged shape provides a view across the

top of the mangroves. If all of the leaves of a tree are in the upper canopy and trimming the canopy will remove all of the leaves, then the top trimming activity of hedging may not be performed oronly performed to the height that does not defoliate or otherwise damage the tree. Hedging is notrecommended for red mangroves or for mature black mangroves. Trimming to form a hedge generally cannot be performed to heights of less than 6 ft. unless the property has a previously, legally established trimming configuration to a lower height

Eco Friendly Licensed Mangrove Trimming

Styles of trimming:

Mangroves can be trimmed in a variety of ways that can

provide a view while still protecting the health of the tree. A PMT, your County

Extension Service, libraries, and many web sites can provide additional information

on standard horticultural practices. However, in all cases, the trimming must be

done in a manner that will not cause the defoliation, destruction, or removal of the mangrove.

Mangrove Trimming and Alteration Regualtions:

The law regulating the trimming and alteration of mangroves

(The Mangrove Trimming and Preservation Act) was amended by the 1996

Florida Legislature and became effective July 1, 1996, replacing all previous state regulations regarding the trimming and alteration of mangroves. The Department of Environmental Protection (department) has been given the responsibility of implementing the new law.

Mangrove Functions and Values

Mangroves trap and cycle various organic materials, chemical elements, and important nutrients in the coastal ecosystem. Mangroves provide one of the basic food chain resources for marine organisms.   Mangroves provide physical habitat and nursery grounds for a wide variety of marine organisms, many of which have important recreational or commercial value. Mangroves serve as roosting and nesting sites for many of our birds.   Mangroves serve as storm buffers by reducing wind and wave action in shallow shoreline areas. Mangroves assist in protecting water quality and clarity by filtering runoff and trapping sediments and debris from adjacent uplands.   Through a combination of the above functions, mangroves contribute significantly to the economy of many coastal counties of Florida and the State of Florida.

Mangrove Trimming and Permitting Requirements

No permit is required for a property owner, or someone the property owner supervises, to trim mangroves located in a riparian mangrove fringe on property they own or control or on sovereign submerged lands (see next paragraph), if the current height of the trees do not exceed 10 feet in height (measured from the soil to the tallest point of the tree). These trees may be trimmed down to a height of no less than 6 feet (measured from the soil to the top of the trimmed tree) by the property owner or someone they supervise. If the mangrove trees are taller than 10 feet, the property owner must use a professional mangrove trimmer to trim the trees. Trees must not be trimmed below a height of six feet. If the shoreline along the riparian owners property exceeds 150 feet in length, no more than 65% of the mangroves along the shoreline may be trimmed.
