Careful work among Winter Park’s heritage trees

Winter Park’s brick streets and grand old oaks are iconic — and the city protects them. Removals and heavy trimming here often trigger permit requirements and tighter tree-protection rules than surrounding areas. We know how to work within them: proper pruning that preserves the canopy the city is known for, and removals only when a tree is truly a hazard.

Permits & protected trees

Winter Park regulates work on many trees on private property, and the rules are stricter than most Central Florida towns. We determine what’s required, handle the paperwork, and keep your project compliant — so a well-meant trim doesn’t turn into a code problem.

Tree removal in Winter Park typically runs $150–$3,000 depending on tree size, proximity to structures, and access.
