We have only one Palm tree and it grew tall. I was wondering how the Palm trees were trimmed, as I never saw this done. I thought a machine did the cleaning? Thanks for informing us how it is done. Now to get my son to work! Scary about the scorpions and spiders, thanks for the warning!

I recommend tarps underneath your working area, it helps with the clean up.

Thank for the video. Just wondered why this process is necessary? Might it help fix a dying palm tree?

How much does something like this cost to do per tree. You charge hourly rate or you charge by tree. How long does it take you to do one tree 3’. This is cool I always wondered why those palms looked like this at the bottom sections.

I charge by the ft Depending on which palms

@socalsand86 Жыл бұрын

Why only 3’ a year? If my palm is about 10’ to the green up top can I skin more than 3’ up at once?

@mr.benitezhimself 4 ай бұрын

In this case, the client wanted me to go 3’ a year. It gets costly by the foot, or to skin a whole palm.

What time of year should I do this? How tall/old should a tree grow before I do this?

@mr.benitezhimself 5 ай бұрын

I’d do this before spring/summer. Make sure the palms are at least 5ft + or taller

Can you skin it all the way to the top? Or why just 3ft? I am doing some but its my first time

@mr.benitezhimself 4 ай бұрын

You can skin as high as you want. In this case. The client wanted to do 3ft every season

How much you charging for skinning and a light trim and on 10 foot tall wide palm ?

@mr.benitezhimself 3 ай бұрын

I would need to see the palm for any time of quote

@dominicc6988 2 жыл бұрын

Does this method of skinning apply across different palm tree species? For instance, where I live, I have Sabal Palmettos and the boot splits at the base. I want to skin mine bc I think they look more presentable but I don't want to damage them.

No each palm has a different way to get skinned/shaved

@@WildlifeWarrior-cr1kk thank you. I live in Bonaire, island off the coast of venezuela and the palm shaving is getting more popular over here and we have these same palms. I can do the work but no idea on pricing. So thank you so much for the info bro🙏

I charge by the foot, or a discounted price if I skin the whole palm. US dollar price
