"The team at Tree Surgeon Atlanta were wonderful! There were prompt, professional and kind. We had two large trees near our house that needed to go due to termite damage and rotting. They were careful and strategic with their process. The trees were taken down and removed within a few hours. Thank you all so much for taking care of us!"

"Greg and the crew from Little Bear were very nice and efficient.  They did an excellent job taking down a couple of tall trees and trimming some others and removed several bushes that were overgrown.    They were very professional, cleaned up all the limbs and left the yard looking really good.  We would definitely recommend Little Bear Tree Service and we will definitely use them again.

"These guys were great. I hired them to take down some very large dead trees and clear a bunch of nasty brush, vines, and fallen trees along my steep creek bank. It was certainly not a very attractive job. I was pretty impressed at their ingenuity and skill at cutting and extracting the trees from the creek. They initially thought it was a 2 day job, but they brought a crew of 6 and knocked it out in one day working past dark to get it done. I paid them in full, thanked them, and sent them on their way. The next day in the daylight I was kind of disappointed in the end product, not terrible, but still a lot of small loose brush and vines on the ground and ruts from the bobcat. I contacted Alberto and he immediately sent 3 guys back out to do some rake and shovel work for a few hours to dress up the area and get it looking good. These are friendly, customer service oriented people with a good work ethic and integrity. Highly recommend."

"We had a great experience with this company. They were working in our neighborhood and stopped by to see if we needed any tree work, so we were able to have everything done the same day. They removed several trees, trimmed our larger trees, and ground the stumps. The crew of about 10 people worked efficiently, checked in with us to make sure we were happy with the trimming, left some of the mulch behind just as we requested, and did a thorough job cleaning up before they left. The owner was polite and respectful, and the price was very reasonable. We would definitely hire them again and highly recommend them!"

"Rico responded immediately about my tree removal. He came over the same day to quote the project and we scheduled the removal for the Monday Morning. Due to weather and a previous project running longer than expected, his crew wasn't able to get to the job until the following afternoon. The crew worked quickly and efficiently to remove the huge dead tree. Their cleanup was excellent and aside from a few track marks in the yard from the bobcat and removing the massive sections of tree, everything was intact. They moved flower pots & low hanging yard lights out of the way, so nothing was disturbed.. The put the tree near the road and it was picked up the following day. A piece of branch fell and broke one of the pickets on my fence and Rico came out within an hour of his crew leaving to replace it. I would definitely recommend Rico & his crew for tree removal projects! The only mild complaint is that I reached out to find out that he was coming a day late, instead of him contacting me."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Tree roots can take weeks to years to die, depending on the method you use. Chemical herbicides take the least amount of time—typically between three and four weeks—while homemade methods, like covering an old stump with leaves, could take between seven and eight years. If you’re unsure which method to use or how quickly you need to act, consulting with a pro is always a good idea.

The average lifespan of an oak tree is 100 to 300 years, so long as it isn’t impacted by diseases like sudden oak death. Some species will last shorter or longer, depending on where you live.

Transplanting a palm tree is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn’t need to be as large as a “true” tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it’s important to give them extra support when staking. 

Some fast-acting products can rot a tree stump in four to six weeks. Keep in mind, these products contain harsh chemicals that may prevent regrowth in the area. Other products, like fertilizer that contains lots of nitrogen, can enhance the process and rot a stump in about a year. (This is compared to the ten years it can take naturally for a stump to rot.)

Yes, it’s okay to trim low branches on a tree, also known as limbing up or raising the crown. Essentially, you’ll trim the lower third of the tree (trunk) and leave the upper two-thirds of the tree (crown). Arborists recommend trimming 20% of a tree’s leaves per season for two to three seasons. Trimming low branches allows light to flow through the tree, increasing circulation and making the tree stronger and healthier.
