Tree Service in Newnan, GA

Newnan Trees Are Older Than You Think

When Sherman marched through Georgia, Newnan was spared. The town had been turned into a hospital city treating wounded from both armies, and it came through the war intact. That is why the antebellum homes are still standing, and it is why Newnan is called the City of Homes.

It is also why the trees are what they are. The hardwoods shading Greenville-LaGrange, College-Temple, Coletown, and the streets around the courthouse square were not planted by a developer in 1995. Many of them have been standing since the buildings went up, and some were here before that. They are enormous, they are beautiful, and after a century and a half they are also entering the part of their lives where things start going wrong.

A two-hundred-year-old white oak leaning over a half-million dollar Greek Revival home is not a job for a crew with a pickup truck and a rented saw. It is a job for an arborist who can tell you whether the tree can be saved, and if it cannot, for a crane operator who can take it apart without touching the roof. We do both, and we have been doing both in this town for twenty years.

You Probably Need a Permit. We Pull It.

This is the part most Newnan homeowners do not know until it is a problem.

Inside Newnan city limits, if you pay a company to remove a tree that is eight inches in diameter or larger, a tree removal permit is required. It does not matter how the property is zoned. It does not matter whether the tree is dead. The moment a contractor is being paid to do the work, the permit applies.

Cutting a tree down yourself, with no contractor involved, is treated differently, and homeowners are generally exempt unless they take down more than five trees in a calendar year. But the moment you hire someone, you are in permit territory.

We pull Newnan tree removal permits regularly. It is part of the job, not an extra, and it is one more reason to hire a company that is fully licensed and insured rather than a crew that turned up after the last storm.

We Remove And Care for All Types of Trees in Newnan

Sixteen years in Coweta County means we have taken down just about everything that grows here.

• Oaks. White, southern red, water, and willow oak are the backbone of Newnan’s canopy, and the ones in the historic districts are enormous. Water oaks in particular get brittle with age and are a common storm failure. These usually need the crane, and usually need a permit.
• Pines. Loblolly and shortleaf are everywhere in this county. They snap mid-trunk in a straight-line wind, and southern pine beetle can kill a stand of them in a season. Beetle-killed pines need to come down before they come down on their own.
• Ash. Emerald ash borer has been through Georgia, and dead ash goes brittle fast. A standing dead ash is a hazardous removal, not a routine one.

Sweetgum, tulip poplar, red maple, Bradford pear, dogwood, redbud. All common here, all handled.

Many jobs involve trees hanging over roofs, growing between homes on tight historic-district lots, tucked away in fenced backyards with no truck access, or dead trees that are no longer safe to climb. That’s where our spider lifts make all the difference.

What actually kills trees here

• Severe thunderstorms and straight-line winds. These do more total damage to Coweta County trees than anything else, every single year.
• Ice storms. Less frequent, but when one hits, the loading is continuous and it breaks everything at once.
• Compacted red clay. Shallow roots, poor drainage, and trees that cannot anchor properly when the wind comes.
• Southern pine beetle. Moves through a stressed pine stand fast. Popcorn-shaped pitch tubes on the trunk mean call somebody now.
• Drought stress, which weakens a tree quietly and then lets the pests finish the job.

Newnan’s canopy is one of the reasons people move here. Those trees are part of what makes the historic districts look the way they do, and they are worth taking seriously. We do.
