Tree Removal Done With Care for Everything Around It
When a tree has to come down, how it comes down matters. Our arborists dismantle it in sections, protect your lawn, beds, and hardscape, and leave the site clean — even in tight spots near homes and power lines. Every removal starts with an arborist's assessment and a written, itemized price.
- An arborist confirms removal is the right call
- Sectional rigging — nothing free-falls over your roof
- Ground protection for turf, beds, and drives; site left spotless

Free On-Site Assessment
A trained arborist — not a salesperson — inspects the tree, tells you honestly if it can be saved, and gives you a written price and timeline.
Removal & Spotless Cleanup
Most residential removals finish in one day. Branches chipped on-site, logs hauled away (or cut and stacked for firewood), stump grinding optional.
Does Your Tree Actually Need to Come Down?
Removal is never our first recommendation — our arborists assess whether a tree can be preserved before suggesting it. But when a tree is a safety risk, professional removal is the responsible choice. Call us if you see:
- Dead or dying trees that could fall in the next storm
- Trees leaning toward the house, garage, or power lines
- Roots damaging foundations, driveways, or sidewalks
- Storm damage that compromised the trunk or canopy
- Disease or pest infestations beyond treatment
Not sure? Many trees that look concerning can be saved with the right care — and we'll tell you if yours can. The assessment is free either way.
Every Removal Includes
- On-site assessment by a professional arborist
- Written estimate with clear pricing — no surprises on invoice day
- Controlled rigging and sectional dismantling to current safety standards
- Complete debris cleanup and haul-away (or wood cut and stacked for you)
- Optional stump grinding below ground level so you can replant
- Coordination with Outdoor Inc's grading, drainage, planting, and lighting crews if your project calls for more than tree work
Trees tangled in power lines, wedged between buildings, or overhanging roofs are exactly what we're equipped for — we coordinate with utility companies when needed and carry full insurance to protect your property.

Tree Removal Questions, Answered
How much does tree removal cost in Chattanooga?
Removal cost depends on the tree's size, condition, access, and what surrounds it. A straightforward removal on open ground costs far less than a large tree over a roof or on a bluff edge that has to be rigged down in sections. We give you an itemized written price on-site, with no obligation, so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
Can you remove a tree close to my house?
Yes. We specialize in technical removals in tight spaces using controlled rigging and sectional dismantling to protect your home and surrounding structures.
How many days does a typical tree removal take?
Most residential removals are done in one day. Larger or complex removals near power lines or structures may require additional time. We provide a clear timeline during our estimate.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Chattanooga?
Permit requirements vary by zoning and whether the tree is in a protected area. Our team advises you on local regulations during the assessment.
Do you offer emergency tree removal after storms?
Yes. We respond to storm damage calls across the greater Chattanooga area. Call 423.322.9236 and we'll get an arborist out as soon as we can.
Do you offer stump grinding after removal?
Yes. Stump grinding is available as an add-on with any removal. We grind stumps below ground level so you can replant or landscape the area.
