Palm tree cutting and removal specialist in Benhavís
Sometimes a palm can't be saved — or simply needs to go, whether that's because of disease, storm damage, safety risk, or a change to the garden or grounds. We remove palms across Benahavís safely and completely, including the trunk and root ball where required, with minimal disruption to the property.
We work on estates and developments throughout La Zagaleta, El Madroñal, La Quinta, Los Arqueros and Benahavís village, handling everything from a single palm removal to clearing several trees at once for a larger landscaping project.
Common reasons for palm tree removal
Red palm weevil infestation Once a palm is heavily infested and the crown has collapsed, treatment is no longer viable and removal is the safest option — both for the tree and to stop the pest spreading to nearby palms.
Storm or wind damage A snapped trunk or badly unbalanced palm after bad weather can become a serious hazard and usually needs to come down.
Disease or structural decline Rot at the base, a leaning or unstable trunk, or a palm that's simply dying can pose a risk to people, cars and property nearby.
Landscaping and renovation projects On larger estates, palms are sometimes removed to make way for redesigned gardens, pools, or new construction — common across Benahavís's private developments.

FAQ
How much does palm tree removal cost in Benahavís? It depends on the palm's height, condition, and how easy or difficult the site is to access. We give a free, no-obligation quote after seeing photos or visiting in person — there's no fixed price we can quote blind.
Can you come urgently if a palm has fallen or looks like it's about to? Yes — if there's an immediate safety risk, message us on WhatsApp with photos and we'll prioritise getting someone out to assess it, usually the same day.
Do I need permission to remove a palm tree in Benahavís? It depends on the property and, in some cases, community or estate rules — some developments like La Zagaleta have their own landscaping guidelines. We can advise during the assessment, though final responsibility for any permit sits with the property owner.
What happens to the tree once it's removed? We remove all cut material — trunk, fronds and root ball where applicable — and dispose of it responsibly. You're left with a clear, clean site.
Is removal always necessary, or can some palms be saved? Not always — we assess each case honestly. If trimming or treatment (for example, for early-stage red palm weevil) is still a viable option, we'll tell you rather than push for removal unnecessarily. See our Palm Tree Trimming in Benahavís page for maintenance and treatment options.
