Birmingham’s Tree Service Connection

Birmingham has more tree canopy than any other metro in Alabama. That’s a big part of why we love living here — and it’s also why a mature oak leaning toward the roof, a pine dropping limbs on the driveway, or a storm-split hickory is one of the most common headaches a homeowner in Jefferson or Shelby County will face.

Bham Tree Pros makes the next step simple. Tell us what’s going on with your tree, and we connect you with a local, insured tree crew that serves your part of the metro. You get a fast callback, a free on-site estimate, and a crew that shows up with the right equipment — bucket trucks, cranes for tight removals, chippers, and stump grinders.

Tree Services We Coordinate

Why Homeowners Use Bham Tree Pros

• Vetted, insured crews. Every crew we refer carries liability insurance. Tree work is dangerous; an uninsured crew puts your home on the hook.
• Fast response. Requests go straight to a crew’s phone. During business hours you’ll typically hear back within the hour, and emergency requests are prioritized.
• Free, no-pressure estimates. You see the price before anything is cut. No obligation.
• Local knowledge. Crews who work Hoover, Vestavia, Homewood, Trussville, and Pelham every week know the tree species, the soils, and the permit rules (Mountain Brook and Homewood have tree ordinances — ask us).
• Cleanup included. Brush chipped, logs hauled or cut to length for firewood, and the yard raked before the crew leaves.

How Much Does Tree Removal Cost in Birmingham?

Every tree is different, but here’s what Birmingham homeowners typically see: small trees under 30 feet usually run $300–$700; medium trees 30–60 feet run $700–$1,500; large hardwoods and pines over 60 feet, or anything that needs a crane or rigging over a structure, run $1,500–$4,000+. Stump grinding is typically $100–$400 per stump depending on diameter. Emergency and storm work carries a premium because crews mobilize after hours.

The only way to get a real number is an on-site look. Estimates are free — request one below.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Birmingham?

For most single-family residential lots in the City of Birmingham, no permit is required to remove a tree on private property. Some suburbs — notably Mountain Brook and Homewood — have tree protection ordinances that apply to larger trees or trees near the street. The crew we connect you with will tell you if your property is affected.

Are the crews licensed and insured?

Alabama does not issue a state license specifically for tree services, so “licensed” claims in this industry mostly mean a business license. What actually protects you is insurance. We only refer crews that carry general liability coverage, and you’re welcome to ask the crew for a certificate of insurance before work begins.

How fast can someone come out?

Routine estimates are usually scheduled within 1–3 days. Emergency calls — a tree on a structure, blocking a driveway, or resting on a line — are dispatched as soon as a crew is available, often the same day.

Does Bham Tree Pros do the work?

We’re a local referral service. We don’t run the saws ourselves — we connect you with independent, insured Birmingham-area tree crews and make sure you get a quick response. Your contract and payment are with the crew that does the work.
