The Avenue D historic district carries some of Fort Pierce’s oldest live oaks — many over 60 years and 30″+ DBH. Swift’s preservation-first protocol applies automatically to qualifying heritage trees in this corridor. Photo-documented before-and-after on every job.
Hurricane Ian aftermath, 11 PM call. A real person picked up, dispatched a crew before sunrise to clear the driveway. Six months later they pulled the permit for the heritage oak removal at no charge.
They refused to remove our 80-year-old laurel oak even when I was ready to call it. Structural pruning, cabling at the weak crotch, and a written 3-year monitoring plan. The tree is still standing — and so are we.
Old Avenue D live oak with internal decay none of the other companies caught. Swift’s ISA arborist documented the condition under FS §163.045, filed the city permit, and handled the removal in two days. Honest work.

Fort Pierce is a working waterfront city with a historic downtown, a strong Black-heritage community, and a wide mix of property types — from the older Edgartown lots to the newer subdivisions along Reaves Road.

ISA Certified Arborist, written quote in 4 hours, COI before any saw runs.
Learn moreMost Fort Pierce pruning is heritage live oak structural work in the downtown and older neighborhoods east of US-1, plus queen palm cleanup on the waterfront and newer subdivision lots. ANSI A300 cuts only — no topping, no lion-tailing on the heritage oaks that anchor downtown Fort Pierce. Scheduled around downtown event weekends when access matters.
Learn moreFort Pierce palms split between sabals on the older lots and queens, royals, and the occasional coconut on the newer waterfront builds. We trim to ISA palm protocol with no hurricane cuts that shorten palm life, no climbing spikes on living trunks, and tools cleaned between properties because Ganoderma rot moves through Fort Pierce’s older neighborhoods quickly.
Learn moreFort Pierce soil grinds clean — sandy, well-drained. Depth matched to next step: 6 to 8 inches for sod, 12 to 18 for replant, deeper for paver pads or pool concrete. 811 location every job — downtown Fort Pierce and the older neighborhoods east of US-1 have shallow irrigation, electric, and the occasional original utility run from the 1920s.

Coconuts are surprisingly wind-resilient when healthy — but lethal yellowing is a real Treasure Coast threat. We check every coconut at trimming for premature nut drop and yellowing fronds (early symptoms). Palm trimming details →
