I used Driscoll Tree Service for years in Snellville, and now we use them in Atlanta. They do an excellent job every time. Friendly and knowledgeable crew.  Results are always great. Thanks, Driscoll Tree  Service!

Michael came out to evaluate some trees I had with a questionable fungus on them, and ultimately the course of action was removal for a select few. He got me an estimate for the removal within a matter of days. They had the most competitive prices out of the other estimates I got. Michael is a very knowledgeable Arborist and you can tell he is passionate about his work. He wasn't pushy at all about the removal like some of the other companies I had come out, and he advised me on doing it in "phases" to fit my budget. The actual tree removal and stump grinding itself was so smooth and all the workers that came with the crane and stump service were very professional and communicative about what the process was going to be.

Can You Remove Trees & Stumps During Winter?

Trees offer a wide range of benefits for the environment and your home. However, winter confines most people indoors, reducing the time to enjoy outdoor spaces. Homeowners usually overlook yard care during the cold season and postpone most tasks until spring or summer. Winter might not be the best time to address severe tree-related concerns if you have been putting off professional inspections and maintenance when the weather is pleasant. Driscoll Tree Service can help you enjoy healthier and safer landscapes throughout the year. Here’s how winter affects stump and tree removal services.

Winter Tree and Stump Removal

Most tree species are dormant in the winter, and homeowners only think about them when hanging lights for the festive season. While seeking the comfort of your indoor spaces is customary, prune or remove trees. As a professional tree care company, we are enthusiastic about going out and caring for your trees. The cold season should not compromise the health and beauty of your landscape, so it is advisable to have a reputable tree service on hand.

Besides our regular tree services, we offer emergency tree removal in adverse weather. The last thing you want is a tree toppling on your home or nearby structures. When you suspect a problem with your tree, schedule an inspection with a professional to prevent safety hazards and costly repairs. We leverage innovative equipment and proven strategies to provide quality tree and stump removal services in harsh conditions.

Is Winter the Best Time for Tree and Stump Removal?

Tree and stump removal services can be conducted anytime, and winter is no exception. As mentioned, most tree species are dormant in the cold season, so they aren’t as active and can be removed easily. If you prefer a more hands-on approach, DIY removal is not the safest option in the winter, especially after a significant snowfall or in the middle of a storm. Our highly trained tree service providers clean up the tree or stump you want to be removed, ensuring the work site is safe. If you have a removal project lined up for the winter, start the cleanup now to prepare the landscape for the spring renovations.

Benefits of Winter Tree and Stump Removal

Homeowners need a trusted tree care company to address their needs throughout the year. Although conducting landscaping activities in the cold season may be counterintuitive, hiring a certified arborist offers many benefits. Besides easy tree removal in the winter, there are fewer leaves to deal with, which increases work efficiency. In addition, fewer people request tree care and maintenance services in the winter, which gives you exclusive access to our experts and extra time to think about what you want to be done.

Whether you have a stump in your backyard or overgrown branches encroaching on your home, contact us at Driscoll Tree Service. We have seasoned technicians with extensive knowledge and expertise to help you maintain a safer and more aesthetic lawn without breaking the bank.
