Removing a tree isn’t just about cutting it down — it’s about doing it safely. In Birmingham and surrounding areas like Hoover, Homewood, and Vestavia Hills, trees often grow close to homes, fences, driveways, and power lines. Our experienced crew plans every job with precision, using cranes, saws, and specialized rigging to bring trees down in controlled sections. Whether we’re working in a tight residential yard or on a large commercial site, we prioritize safety, property protection, and a job done right the first time.
Leaning trunks, cracked limbs, or hollow interiors are signs of dangerous trees that can fail without warning — especially after Alabama storms. Our team provides hazardous tree removal across Birmingham, Pelham, and Alabaster, identifying and safely removing unstable trees before they cause damage. With advanced equipment and safety protocols, we take down high-risk trees in controlled stages, keeping your home, vehicles, and structures secure.
Some trees in Jefferson and Shelby County are simply too large for standard removal methods. Mature oaks, tall pines, and other oversized trees require cranes, excavators, and skilled operators. Our team specializes in large tree removal throughout Birmingham and nearby communities, sectioning massive trunks into manageable pieces for safe hauling. Whether it’s a large oak overhanging your roof or a pine standing near utility lines, we ensure precise removal and complete cleanup.
When severe weather hits central Alabama, fallen or damaged trees can quickly become hazardous. We offer storm-damaged tree removal in Birmingham, Hoover, and surrounding areas, responding fast to clear driveways, rooftops, and yards. Our team handles unstable limbs, uprooted trunks, and heavy debris safely using cranes and loaders. Once the danger is removed, we clean and level the area so your property is safe and accessible again.
Preparing for new construction, landscaping, or development starts with professional clearing. We provide lot and land clearing services across Birmingham, Alabaster, and Shelby County, removing trees, brush, and stumps to create a clean slate for your next project. Our equipment and crew are capable of handling large-scale residential and commercial sites efficiently, keeping your schedule and site preparation on track.
A tree isn’t truly gone until the stump is taken care of. Leftover stumps can attract pests, cause tripping hazards, or interfere with future landscaping. After removal, we offer stump grinding and full stump removal throughout Birmingham and nearby cities. Grinding eliminates the visible portion below ground, while full removal clears the root system completely. We fill, grade, and smooth the area so it’s ready for sod, planting, or new construction.
Tree removal and land clearing generate heavy debris — logs, branches, and chips that can quickly pile up. Our crew provides complete debris hauling and cleanup in Birmingham, Hoover, and Vestavia Hills, using loaders and dump trucks to remove everything efficiently. Once hauling is complete, we rake, grade, and level the area to leave your property clean, safe, and ready to use.
Every job site is different, which is why we keep a fleet of specialized equipment ready for all conditions. From chainsaws and grinders for smaller removals to cranes, skid steers, and excavators for larger projects, we’re equipped to handle any challenge. Our machinery allows us to complete tree removals across Birmingham and Jefferson County quickly and safely — even in tight spaces or difficult terrain.
Not every problem tree is easy to spot. Common warning signs include leaning trunks, deep cracks, hollow sections, fungus growth at the base, or frequent branch loss. Trees growing too close to driveways, roofs, or utility lines can also become risky over time. If you notice any of these symptoms, our Birmingham tree removal team can inspect and safely remove the tree before it causes damage.
