"Jamey came to our house on Tuesday to give us an estimate. He gave me nothing in writing, but said he would send me details later. The following day on Wednesday, I called him to say we had decided to use his company. He said he would call me back the next day (Thursday) to let us know when we would be scheduled, he did not. I had asked him to send me the invoice, he did not. On Monday, I called him back to check on our status. He said his crew was coming tomorrow. He was supposed to notify me to let me know when they were coming. He did not. I asked him again to email me the invoice and sent him my email address. He did not. I sent him a text early the morning of the service explaining my skepticism. He called me. I asked about the invoice, and he said he was sending it with his crew this morning. I told him I had asked for it twice and that he had not called me back when he said he would. He told me he was going through some personal stuff and was not in his office. I asked him didn't he check his messages. He then told me find someone else to do my service and hung up on me. He then sent me a text saying I was rude."

FAQs for tree service projects in Birmingham, AL

You might remove a tree for free if it’s small, easy to reach, and your city doesn’t require a permit. Call the planning or public works office first to be sure. If they give you the green light, follow all safety rules, wear protective gear, and ask a friend to spot you. When in doubt—or if the tree is tall—hire a pro instead.

In many cities, you’ll need a permit—sometimes even an arborist’s report—before cutting down a tree. Start by calling your local building or planning department. They’ll tell you whether the tree is protected, how big it can be before a permit kicks in, and whether the work has to be done by a licensed pro. Get written approval before scheduling the job to stay on the right side of local rules.

It’s best to leave healthy trees alone—they add shade, boost curb appeal, and support wildlife. Take one down only if it’s dead, diseased beyond saving, or posing a real safety risk. Check local rules first; many areas protect heritage or street trees. 

When removal seems necessary, bring in a licensed arborist for an on-site assessment and written recommendation before you book the crew.

If you’re torn between trimming, pruning, or full removal, start with an honest health check. Trim to shape the canopy or encourage new growth. Prune when you spot broken or diseased branches that could spread trouble. 

Plan on removal only if the trunk is hollow, several major limbs are dead, storm damage is extensive, or the tree leans dangerously toward a structure.

A tree that’s 15 to 20 feet from your home isn’t automatically a problem. Healthy, small species often coexist just fine with houses. Trouble starts when the trunk shows decay, roots crack the foundation, or overhanging branches threaten the roof. Bring in a licensed arborist for a close look and written recommendation before you decide to remove or simply prune.

Timing hinges on size and complexity. A small tree might be gone in a few hours, a mid-sized one in half a day, and a giant could keep the crew busy for one to two full workdays. Add extra time if you’re grinding the stump, hauling wood, or navigating tight spaces near power lines or fences.
