Hiring a tree company is a trust decision. The crew will be working above your roof with chain saws, and in a hurricane town you may have heard some hard stories. Lovescape is a licensed, insured, locally owned company based in Cutler Bay, and we do the job with a free estimate, a clear price and a full cleanup.
| Your situation | Where to start |
|---|---|
| Branches over the roof, or a tree that has gotten too big | Tree trimming and removal |
| A hedge or shrub that has taken over a walkway or window | Hedge and bush trimming |
| A tree or limbs came down in a storm | Storm cleanup |
| A stump left from a removal or a past storm | Stump grinding |
| An overgrown lot or backyard with brush and small trees | Land clearing |
We are licensed and insured, based at 8260 SW 184th Street in Cutler Bay, and every estimate is free with no obligation.
Trimming a tree properly, to the American National Standards Institute A-300 standard, does not need a permit in Miami-Dade, and topping and hat-racking are prohibited. Removing or relocating a tree that is not specifically exempt does require one, and approval takes about 21 days. The County Tree Program can be reached at 305-372-6574, and the Town of Cutler Bay refers tree removal permits to Miami-Dade County. Each of our service pages explains what to expect.
Wind, saturated soil and salt air are what trees here have to survive. Trees that are top-heavy, shallow-rooted or loaded with dead wood go first, which is why trimming ahead of storm season matters. The County advises against starting tree pruning or cleanup once a tropical storm or hurricane watch or warning is issued, so the time to do it is before one is announced. Palms are the exception to the rule: University of Florida guidance is that they do not need hurricane pruning.
Call or request a quote and we will walk your property and price the job, with no obligation.
We schedule your tree service at a time that works for you and get it done with a licensed, insured crew.
We walk the finished job with you to make sure it is exactly right before we call it done.
We walk the property with you, look at the tree and everything around it, and explain what we recommend and why. You get a price, a scope that says what is included, and an honest answer if the answer is that the tree does not need to come down. You do not need to be home as long as we can get into the yard, but on a complicated job it helps to walk it together.
We work in Cutler Bay, Palmetto Bay, Pinecrest, South Miami, Kendall, Cutler Ridge, Perrine, Goulds, Naranja, Princeton, Homestead and Florida City. Our shop is in Cutler Bay, so neighborhoods such as Saga Bay and Lakes by the Bay, and the yards along Old Cutler Road, are close by. Browse all our services for lawn care, landscaping and design. After a storm, see storm cleanup.
Most trees benefit from trimming about once a year. Fast-growing species and trees near power lines or the house may need attention twice a year.
Yes. After a storm we prioritize downed limbs and hazard trees, so your property is safe and accessible as quickly as crews and access allow.
Stump grinding can be added to any tree removal job. Just ask when we quote the work so it is included in your estimate.
In Miami-Dade, any tree that is not specifically exempt needs a permit to be removed. Proper pruning does not. We will tell you what to expect, and the County Tree Program at 305-372-6574 can confirm.
