To ensure preservation of the tree canopy, many cities have instituted tree protection plans. A large tree removal permit as well as a tree replacement plan may be mandatory. However, our tree removal compliance officer will complete any necessary tree tables and tree protection paperwork.

Emergency and Fallen Tree Removal

emergency tree removal services

When a tree has been struck by lightning, damaged by a storm, or sickness is causing its collapse emergency tree removal measures must be taken. Trees that have already fallen or are leaning can be among the most dangerous to cut and remove. Never attempt to cut up a tree after it has fallen.

Cheap Tree Removal Services

Consider the consequences of hiring the cheapest tree removal service in Roswell. Cheap tree services generally have no insurance and outdated licenses. Low-cost tree services routinely cut corners taking dangerous risks on your property that may result in tragedy.

Hiring unlicensed or inadequately insured tree removal companies who fail to obtain the proper permissions and permits also exposes you to HOA fines and civil penalties. The worst consequence of choosing a cheap tree removal service is having no protection and no legal recourse should accidents occur while the tree work is being performed. As the property owner it is your responsibility to verify the license, workers comp, and general liability insurance policy of any tree company in Georgia.
