Careful removal of dangerous trees that threaten your property or your family safety. Our crews use crane support, controlled rigging, and ANSI Z133 safety standards on every hazardous tree job.
Full root-ball stump removal for new construction, foundation clearance, or anywhere the entire root mass must come out. We excavate the stump completely, back-fill, and grade the area.
Complete tree removal with bucket truck, crane, or rope-rigging methods chosen to fit the site. We protect surrounding structures, fences, and gardens — then haul wood and grind the stump for a clean finish.
Clean stump grinding service that leaves your yard ready for sod, mulch, or new planting. Our grinder operators are efficient and the cleanup is thorough — no chips left scattered across the lawn.
Professional crown reduction that brings the canopy down proportionally while preserving tree structure. We use proper reduction cuts to lateral branches the tree can recover from, never harmful topping.

Tree pest treatment by arborists who understand insect biology. From emerald ash borer trunk injections to scale soil drenches, we choose the right method, the right timing, and the right product.

Professional deadwooding service that removes only the dead branches — leaving live structure untouched. Climbed work with careful spotting to ensure no live wood is removed by mistake.
Skilled removal of standing deadwood, regardless of size. We use the right combination of climbing, rigging, and crane support for each dead tree to keep our crew and your property completely safe.
Tree work is among the most dangerous trades in the country, and the difference between a clean takedown and a disaster comes down to rigging, equipment, and crew training. B. Haney and Sons Arborists invests heavily in all three at every Cornelia property — ANSI Z133 safety standards, redundant tie-in points, proper rope rigging on every cut, and equipment sized exactly right for the job.
Our Cornelia, GA arborists work with bucket trucks, climbing gear, rigging blocks, chippers, and stump grinders — choosing the right tool for each situation. Whether it is a routine prune or an emergency takedown over a Cornelia structure, every B. Haney and Sons Arborists tree job is engineered for safety first, efficiency second, and quality cleanup as the standard.
Arborist expertise, integrity, and rapid response — the B. Haney and Sons Arborists difference for Cornelia property owners.
We carry on a tree care tradition rooted in Lombard, Illinois that began in 1940 — bringing decades of arborist knowledge and old-school workmanship to every job we touch.
We tell you when a tree can be saved and when it should come down — even if that means turning down work. Our reputation depends on honest advice, not maximizing every invoice.
Storms, fallen trees, and trees on houses do not wait for business hours and neither do we. Our emergency crews respond around the clock — holidays, weekends, and middle of the night.
Most emergency calls are answered live and our crews can typically reach your property within 1 to 4 hours. Speed matters when a tree is on a roof or hanging dangerously after a storm.
Our arborists live in the regions they serve. They know the local tree species, the soil conditions, the disease pressures, and the seasonal patterns that affect tree health in your area.
Common questions about tree care in Cornelia, GA.
Yes. B. Haney and Sons Arborists provides tree planting throughout Cornelia, GA and we are happy to recommend species that will thrive on your specific site — soil type, sun exposure, mature size, and disease resistance all matter. We do not just plant whatever the customer asks for if we know the species will fail. The right tree in the right place is the foundation of every healthy Cornelia landscape.
Absolutely. Tree work is high-risk by nature, and any contractor cutting trees on your Cornelia property should carry general liability insurance and workers compensation coverage. B. Haney and Sons Arborists maintains both, and we will provide certificates of insurance on request before starting work. Hiring uninsured tree cutters is one of the most common ways Cornelia property owners end up with serious financial liability.
Yes. Our crews working in Cornelia include ISA-trained arborists who follow ANSI A300 pruning standards and ANSI Z133 safety standards. ISA-certified credentials are individual and may vary by team member, but every crew leader on a Cornelia job has the training to assess tree health, plan rigging properly, and make pruning cuts that promote long-term tree vitality rather than damaging the tree.
In most Georgia jurisdictions, Cornelia property owners have the legal right to trim neighbor branches that cross the property line, but only up to the property line and only without damaging the tree health. We always recommend a friendly conversation with the neighbor first and proper documentation. B. Haney and Sons Arborists can perform the work and provide written records — but the legal questions belong with you, not us.
Warning signs in Cornelia trees include large dead branches, mushrooms or conks at the base (indicating root rot), bark falling off in sheets, hollow trunk cavities, sudden lean, recent root disturbance, and crown dieback. A live tree may still be hazardous due to structural defects. Our arborists can perform a paid risk assessment with a written report, or include a basic visual evaluation with any free quote.
Tree removal in Cornelia means taking the entire tree down to a stump or grinding the stump as well — usually because the tree is dead, hazardous, undesirable, or in the way of construction. Tree trimming is selective branch work to shape the canopy, clear structures, or improve appearance. Pruning is more health-focused than trimming, removing weak or diseased wood. We help Cornelia property owners decide which approach fits each tree.
Real reviews from property owners we have served across the country.
"The arborist gave honest advice during the estimate — recommended we keep two trees we thought needed removal because they were actually healthy and worth saving. Saved us money and kept the trees. That kind of integrity is rare."
"Hazardous tree removal on a leaning oak threatening our house. Crew arrived on time with proper equipment, rigged everything down in sections, and the property was completely safe the entire time. Great communication from quote through cleanup."
"Tree planting service was excellent. The arborist helped us pick species that would thrive in our soil and climate, and the planting itself was done with proper depth, root ball preparation, and staking. All five trees are doing great two seasons later."
