Century Village East
A gated 55+ village of two- to four-story condo buildings around a golf course and lakes, between I-95 and the Turnpike. Colonies tend to settle in walls that several units share (condo removal).
Short answer
Comb wedged in an island condo wall or a Century Village East plumbing chase comes out with the colony still alive, and the bees go to a beekeeper. Before any stucco or soffit is cut, a thermal camera scan traces the comb. Our own licensed crews take it from there: every comb removed, the void cleaned and sealed, the opening rebuilt. From the pier to the Turnpike the 24-hour response guarantee applies, and a person answers (954) 429-5133 day or night.
Deerfield Beach at a glance
- Four building eras
- 1920s stucco near Pioneer Park, 1950s block houses, a 1970s to 1990s condo village beside golf communities, and beachside condo buildings on the island.
- Favorite entry points
- Roof scuppers, soffit vents, shutter boxes, condo AC chases and boat lockers.
- Water on both ends
- Ocean and Intracoastal on the east side; golf course lakes and Quiet Waters Park west of I-95.
- Paperwork first
- Gated communities need our names at the gate, and managers want our insurance certificate first.
Deerfield Beach is the last coastal city before the county line, which follows the Hillsboro River. Incorporated as the Town of Deerfield in 1925, it added Beach to the name in 1939.
Housing here spans four eras, and each one leaves bees a different gap. For how the job itself runs, see live bee removal.
How Deerfield Beach buildings let bees inside
Where each local building type lets a scout in:
- Postwar houses: vented soffits with tired screen and loose wood fascia (soffit work).
- Barrel tile roofs: a Mediterranean Revival habit here since the 1920s, often left open at the eave ends (roof and attic removal).
- Condo buildings: hollow framing around AC sleeves and plumbing chases (wall removal).
- Beachside: salt air pits screens and shutter housings until they open (bees in shutters).
Deerfield Beach areas and their favorite bee gaps
Deer Creek
Single-family and attached homes built from the mid-1970s on around the Deer Creek Golf Club course. Bees crossing the fairways pass over these yards all day, so we confirm a fixed entry before calling it a nest.
The Cove
An older neighborhood with houses from the mid-1950s mixed with later condos and townhouses, near The Cove Shopping Center on Hillsboro Boulevard. Where an added room meets the original wall, that seam is often the gap.
Deerfield Beach Island
Barrier island land between the Intracoastal and the ocean, home to the city's International Fishing Pier and dense condo blocks, continuing south into Hillsboro Beach. High colonies need lift or roof access cleared with management.
Pioneer Park and the historic center
The oldest blocks in town, where the 1920 Old Deerfield School and the Mediterranean Revival Butler House still stand. Some stucco buildings from that era hide flat roofs behind parapets, and an open scupper leads bees straight into a dry cavity.
West Hillsboro Boulevard
The commercial stretch from Military Trail to I-95, where the 1926 rail station carries a barrel tile roof. Plazas and offices here can hide colonies in hollow monument signs and rooftop equipment curbs (commercial removal).
Century Village East: who approves the work
Century Village East is split among many separate associations, each running its own group of buildings, so the first question is which board signs off. Walkways and stairwells stay in use during the job, so we tape off the work zone and ask the manager to post a resident notice. Boards wanting the approval steps in writing can read our condo and HOA bee rules; the building work is laid out under condo bee removal.
Colony behind a parapet, shutter box or condo vent?
Snap the gap the bees fly into, text it over, and a price range comes back.
Boats and docks on the Intracoastal
The Intracoastal splits the island from the mainland, and boats tied up along it can sit idle for weeks. A passing swarm will move into an anchor locker or a rolled canvas cover nobody opens. Leave it shut, keep the engine off and text us a photo; boat and marina removal explains the rest.
Golf course lots, lakes and old trees
Deer Creek and Century Village East are built around golf courses, and Quiet Waters Park adds several lakes west of I-95, so foragers cross backyards all day. Old shade trees along fairways develop hollow limbs, and tree removal saves the tree when its structure allows. Hollow aluminum pool cage beams are the other usual pick.

Deerfield Beach Bee Removal Questions
Bees are in my Century Village East building's outside wall. Who calls?
Either the owner or the manager can, but the building's association approves the job, since outside walls are normally common elements. The manager gets a written quote and our insurance certificate directly from us. The condo and HOA guide lists what boards usually want before signing.
Can you reach a colony high on a beachside condo?
Yes. Height changes the access plan, not the method. Lift or roof access is cleared with the manager, balconies below get protected, and the thermal camera keeps the cut small. Corroded vent screens are often the entry, so we replace them. See condo and high-rise removal.
My older house near The Cove has bees in a wall. Will you have to open it?
Usually, but only as far as the comb reaches, which the thermal camera outlines from outside. On postwar block houses the way in is often stucco or a wood soffit, and our own crews patch and paint it to match. Details are on wall bee removal.
Bees keep visiting my pool by the golf course. Is there a hive?
Not necessarily. With course lakes and pools everywhere, many bees just stop to drink (bees at the pool). A nest looks different: a steady stream using a single hole in the siding, a trunk or a cage beam from morning to dusk. If you see that, send a photo and keep kids and pets back.
Does a swarm in a Deer Creek hedge cost the same as a colony in an island condo wall?
No. A cluster we can reach from the ground, such as one hanging in a hedge or tucked in a meter or valve box, tends to land between $300 and $400. Comb built into a condo wall or tile roof, anything that needs lift or roof access, and the repair afterward can carry a job into the thousands. Waiting for a weekday slot, rather than calling us out at night or on a weekend, also keeps the price down; our pricing page breaks this down.
