Monrovia’s historic homes around Old Town and Myrtle Avenue sit under mature camphors, deodar cedars, sycamores, oaks and palms. North of Foothill Boulevard, homes climb toward Monrovia Canyon Park and the San Gabriel Mountains, where native oaks and wildland vegetation meet the neighborhood. Monrovia regulates certain trees on private property, so check with the city before removing oaks or large trees.
Foothill homes need annual fire clearance tree trimming: deadwood removal, canopy raising and palm skirt cleanup. When a tree is dead or hazardous, tree removal is done in sections to protect older homes.
For fire-season prep, read our fire season trimming guide. We also serve Arcadia, Azusa and Pasadena.
