Tree Removal Near Power Lines in Milton, GA

Responsibility can split between the utility and the property owner depending on where the tree sits and which span is involved. We help you sort that before cutting, without pretending we speak for the utility.
How the job is scoped
If the line must be de-energized or a utility crew must clear their span first, we wait. Rushing a cut into a live drop is not careful work.
When the tree is on your side of the service and the utility has defined its role, we remove wood with ropes so pieces do not slap the conductor.
What you can do beforehand
Mark the meter path, keep kids inside, and have the utility account handy if a disconnect is needed. Prompt communication between you, us, and the utility keeps the sequence sane.
After the tree is down
We clean the work area and can include stump grinding if roots are not entangled with buried service. Buried lines you know about should be marked before any stump work.
We offer tree removal, trimming, and stump services; we do not provide general yard maintenance.
Frequently asked questions
Will you cut a tree that is on a high-voltage span?
Primary lines belong to the utility. We work on the property side once it is safe and authorized. We will not freelance on transmission or primary distribution.
Who calls the utility?
Often the homeowner or the utility’s hazard line. We tell you when that call is the next step and hold our schedule around it.
Is this an emergency service?
If a line is down, stay away and use the utility’s emergency number plus 911 if needed. Tree removal near lines is scheduled once the electrical hazard is controlled.
