Tree Removal

Tree Removal

Sometimes, the last cut is the deepest.  Tree removal is rarely our first recommendation, but sometimes it's the safest choice for your family and property. When disease, storm damage, or structural issues make a tree too risky to keep, we'll remove it safely and completely.

Not every tree company can distinguish between a tree that needs to be removed and one that just needs professional care. That's why we lead with our certified arborists who understand Atlanta's urban forest and can make informed decisions about your trees' future.

About

Tree Removal is More Than Just Yelling “Timber”

We treat every tree removal with the same careful planning, whether it's an old oak threatening your roofline or a diseased dogwood in your backyard.

Professional assessment

One of our certified arborists evaluates the tree's condition, considers all options, and develops a safe removal plan to protect your property.

Safe removal execution

Our trained crew uses specialized equipment and follows industry safety protocols to systematically remove the tree, working from top to bottom to prevent damage to your home or neighboring trees.

Complete cleanup and stump grinding

We haul away all debris, grind the stump, and leave your property ready for what comes next, whether that's new landscaping or just enjoying the open green space.

Why

When the Best Tree Care Means Knowing When to Say Goodbye

Some trees are ready to retire—and that's okay. Maybe it's a century-old oak that's finally succumbing to disease or a fast-growing pine that's outgrown its welcome next to your power lines. Knowing when to say goodbye is part of responsible tree ownership.

Atlanta's urban environment is tough on trees, and even the healthiest specimens eventually reach the end of their useful life. When that time comes, planned removal beats emergency removal every time—it's safer, less expensive, and gives you more control over what happens to your property next.

What Atlanta homeowners are saying about our work

Sharon W

From the office staff to salesman Josh and crew, Northside Tree did an excellent job. Not easy taking down trees around the lake but I now have an excellent view! Thank you so much.

Ivy O

Northside did a fantastic job removing a row of dead trees. These trees had dropped multiple limbs over the years, with several having just fallen on my roof. They came out a day early to give me an estimate and beat the three other companies I had also requested estimates from. I was able to get scheduled within a day, and the team they sent out worked safely but quickly. They also left the work area spotless. I would highly recommended this company and am saving their info for my next round of tree work.

I recently hired Northside Tree Professionals to tackle a huge project in my backyard, grinding down and removing wood piles I had been building up for years. Their six-man crew showed up on time, worked efficiently, and left the yard looking fantastic. They were professional, polite, and cost-effective, which is exactly what you hope for when bringing in a service like this.

Rachel D

Excellent! Professional service from the arborist visit, to the office coordinator to the impressive tree crew! The tree crew guided huge limbs away from our gazebo and other yard fixtures. We had a wonderful experience and will be recommending to others. Thank you!

Mary J

The guys arrived on time, they were polite, and professional. The job was hard. I needed them to take out 8 Leyland Cypresses that were easily 30 feet tall, but the area to drop them was only about 20 feet wide. The guys were impressive! They made each of those trees drop exactly where they wanted them. No damage to my brand new fence that all these trees were within a foot of. I will recommend Northside to anyone looking for a tree service.

Truitt H

They need 6 stars for these guys! Doug came out first to give me a quote, walked the whole property, addressed potential concerns, and was super knowledgeable and friendly. They got the permit quickly and scheduled quickly. Harold and his team came out and we were beyond impressed. Harold had passion and energy about what he does, running to get things done and ALWAYS with a smile on his face. He kept the team moving at an incredibly fast pace but also carefully lowering each piece of the tree to not damage flowers or sprinkler lines. They truly value the customer experience here. I’m a customer for life!

Neil O

I couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend them to anyone needing tree removal, debris clearing, or grinding work. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and reliable tree service, give Northside Tree Professionals a call, you won’t be disappointed!
