Tree surgeon

[keithtx]

Does anyone know of a tree surgeon. We have a large Washington palm that makes a mess and attracts flies to the fallen berries so we want it taken out. We are in Lajares area.

Thanks

Don't forget that under new rules as the owner of the tree you will need a licence from the Ayuntamiento in Corralejo before anyone touches it. It's free but you have to apply in person, the tree surgeon cannot get it for you. The licence is needed even to prune palms, as well as to cut them down. Fines are huge if you are caught without one.  The licence cites the number of palms covered, so if you have a few count them before you go, and take ID and proof of address.

Found someone. He does work for the council and handled the permissions for us. He's Spanish and seems very efficient. Marcos 00 34 650 16 29 58
