Tall trees, close quarters
A lot of Cumming has filled in around Lake Lanier and along the GA-400 corridor, and the homes went in among tall loblolly pines and hardwoods rather than clearing them. Decades on, those trees are big and often close to the house, which is a good thing for shade and a real consideration when one starts to lean or die back.
Pines in particular grow tall and slender and can snap or uproot in a storm, and a dead or dying pine near the roof is worth an early look. Robin assesses the tree, the lean, and the room around it and tells you whether it needs to come down now or can be watched.
Tall pines near the house
When a tall pine or oak stands close to a Cumming home, there is rarely room to fell it, so it comes down in sections. The crane with its extra-long boom is often the safest and fastest way, lifting cut pieces straight up and over the house instead of working them down through the yard.
Where the crane cannot set up, a bucket truck or an expert climber takes the tree apart from the top down. The point is the same either way: the tree comes down under control, nowhere near the roof.

I have tall pines near my Cumming house. Is a crane safer?
Often, yes. A tall pine close to the roof cannot be safely felled, so it comes down in sections. The crane lifts those pieces straight up and over the house, which keeps weight and drop away from the roof.
Do you work lakeside and wooded lots?
Yes. A lot of Cumming's lots are wooded or near the water, and we work them regularly. Access is the main variable, and Robin sorts that out on the estimate.
When should the pines and oaks around here be trimmed?
It depends on the tree and the goal. Deadwood and hazard limbs can come out any time, and structural pruning is usually best in the dormant season. Robin will tell you the right timing for yours.
My pine looks like it is dying. Should it come down?
Maybe, and it is worth a look before a storm decides for you. A dead or dying pine near the house is a common removal here. Robin assesses it and gives you a straight answer at no charge.
