Lakewood Park’s defining feature is its 50-plus-year-old live oak hammocks — planted before most of the houses on the block. Many qualify for St. Lucie County’s Vegetation Removal Permit at 24″ DBH on detached single-family lots. Swift files the application in-house at no charge on qualifying removals.
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.

Lakewood Park is residential subdivision country — most lots are quarter to half-acre, mostly 1990s-2000s ranch and Florida-style builds. Common removals are queen palms and sand pines threatening the house, or older oaks past saving. We handle Indian River County permitting for protected trees on lots over an acre. ISA Certified Arborist, written quote in 4 hours, COI to your insurer before we start.
Learn moreMost Lakewood Park trimming calls are live oak and laurel oak structural work — the canopies grew during the build-out years and now overhang roofs, fences, and the pool cages most properties have. ANSI A300 cuts, no topping, no lion-tailing. Same-day on-site assessment, written quote in 4 hours.
Learn moreSabals are the original landscaping species here and most properties have them, plus queens, washingtonias, and the occasional foxtail. Queens get over-trimmed by most companies — we follow ISA palm protocol with no hurricane cuts and no climbing spikes on living trunks. Tools sanitized between properties so Ganoderma rot does not move from yard to yard.
Learn moreSandy Lakewood Park soil grinds clean. Depth matched to next step: 6 to 8 inches for sod, 12 to 18 for replant, deeper for paver pads or concrete. 811 location every job — Lakewood Park has shallow irrigation runs and low-voltage lighting under most yards.
Learn moreLakewood Park is 15 to 20 minutes from our north-county runs and we pre-position equipment ahead of named storms. Storm calls here are mostly queen palm failure, sand pine snap, and oak limb across a fence or driveway. A real person answers our 24/7 line. COI before any climber leaves the truck.
Learn moreQueen palms and any pine close to the house are the species to watch in Lakewood Park. Pre-season we walk the property, photograph high-risk trees, and document what needs to come down or be structurally pruned. March through May is when this work happens — once a storm is named, the crews are booked.
Learn moreLakewood Park clearing work is mostly partial — pool installs, lot prep for new-build pads, brush and Brazilian pepper removal. Indian River County protected-tree rules apply on lots over an acre, so we walk the property with you, mark what stays, and handle the paperwork before any equipment shows up.
Learn moreLakewood Park lots tend to be older and tree-rich. Many properties have 30 to 60 year live oaks that are now overhanging roofs, driveways, and pool cages. Our default plan here is preservation through structural pruning — not removal.
We also coordinate with unincorporated St. Lucie County code directly. Lakewood Park is not under PSL Ch. 154; the rules are different, and a contractor who only works in PSL will often miss that. We file under the right code the first time.

Yes — unincorporated St. Lucie County has its own tree code separate from PSL Ch. 154. Larger trees and certain native species trigger county-level review. We handle the paperwork on qualifying jobs.
Almost always prune. A mature live oak is worth more than the labor of preserving it. Targeted deadwooding plus structural cuts at the right collar usually solves the immediate hazard without sacrificing the tree. Tree trimming details →
