Specialised Pruning Services in the Province of Alicante
High-altitude pruning requires specialised training, approved equipment and liability insurance. At Jardines Costa Blanca we have certified arborists who work on trees and palms of any size, from private villas to residential complexes and large estates in Alicante city, San Vicente del Raspeig, San Juan de Alicante, El Campello and the rest of the province.
We have our own cherry picker and elevating platforms reaching up to 25 metres without damaging the garden or the property. For hard-to-reach trees we use rope-climbing techniques with CE-certified harnesses. Our team carries out emergency work after storms or high winds, available Monday to Saturday across Alicante and the rest of the Costa Blanca.
Controlled Pruning and Felling of Large Trees
We carry out formative pruning on young trees, annual maintenance pruning, crown reduction when a tree encroaches on cables or buildings, and sanitary pruning to remove dead or diseased branches. In residential communities and private estates across Alicante and its metropolitan area we regularly work on pines, eucalyptus, palms and large olive trees.
When a tree cannot be saved or poses a risk, we carry out controlled felling in sections, with no danger to homes or power lines. All our work includes debris removal and proper biomass management. More on tree and palm felling →
Palm Tree Pruning in Alicante and Pest Control
Alicante is one of the Spanish provinces with the highest density of palm trees, and also one of the most exposed to the red palm weevil. We prune palms of any height using a cherry picker or climbing techniques, and apply approved preventive and curative phytosanitary treatment on every visit.

Frequently Asked Questions About High-Altitude Pruning
From what height do I need a specialist?
From 4-5 metres, work requires specific safety equipment. For heights above 6 metres we use a cherry picker, elevating platform or climbing techniques with a CE-certified harness.
When is the best time to prune in Alicante?
In the Mediterranean climate of Alicante, November to February is the ideal season for most trees. Palms can be pruned year-round, though we avoid the hottest months due to the risk of red palm weevil.
Do I need council permission to prune large trees?
For trees on private land, permission is generally not required. Some Alicante municipalities have specific bylaws. If the tree is near power lines, our team advises you and handles the paperwork.
Do you collect the pruning debris?
Yes. We chip all the biomass on site with our wood chipper and remove the debris. We can also leave the chipped material as mulch to fertilise your garden soil.
