Call For Tree Services
John Williams founded Aable John's Tree Service in 1985, and we've been working in the Brookhaven area for decades. Brookhaven's established neighborhoods — Ashford Park, Brookhaven Heights, the corridors along Dresden Drive and Peachtree Road — have some of the most mature tree canopy in DeKalb County. Large oaks, hickories, sweetgums, and old-growth pines that have been growing on these lots for 50, 60, 70 years. When those trees need professional attention, they require a crew with the equipment and experience to handle them safely in tight residential spaces.

Tree Removal in Brookhaven GA
Brookhaven's older residential lots mean trees are often close to homes, neighboring properties, driveways, and structures on multiple sides. A tree that can't fall freely needs to be rigged and sectioned with precision. Our crew plans the removal before we touch it — where to position equipment, how to rig each section, what needs to come down first to protect the surrounding property.
We remove trees of all sizes throughout Brookhaven, from large specimen oaks and pines in established neighborhoods to ornamentals on smaller infill lots. All debris is hauled off your property when we're done.
Important for Brookhaven properties: the city has an active tree preservation ordinance. Removing trees above a certain caliper may require a permit, and certain tree species have additional protections. We know the local requirements and can walk you through what's needed before any work starts.
Emergency Tree Removal in Brookhaven GA
Storms roll through DeKalb County regularly, and Brookhaven's dense tree coverage means significant damage after a bad one. When a tree drops on your roof or against your fence at midnight, you need someone who picks up the phone. We run 24/7 emergency coverage throughout our service area. Call us any time at (770) 218-0068 and we'll get a crew out to assess the situation and make your property safe. We also work directly with homeowners' insurance and adjusters for storm damage claims.
Tree Trimming in Brookhaven GA
Brookhaven's mature tree stock needs regular professional trimming to stay healthy. Branches over rooflines, scraping siding, growing toward neighboring lots, or blocking gutters are all routine calls we get in the area. Regular trimming keeps your trees healthy, reduces storm damage risk, and avoids the neglect that eventually forces a more expensive removal.
Our ISA Certified Arborists make proper cuts that preserve each tree's structure and encourage healthy growth. We don't top trees — it's a shortcut that creates weak, hazardous regrowth and long-term structural problems.

Tree Pruning in Brookhaven GA
Pruning is about tree health — removing dead wood, eliminating co-dominant stems before they split, and thinning the canopy so light and air can move through it. A properly pruned tree handles summer storms significantly better than one that's been neglected. Our arborists know which cuts strengthen structure and which ones make problems worse. Most species do best when pruned during dormancy, but dead or hazardous branches shouldn't wait.
Stump Grinding & Removal in Brookhaven GA
After a tree comes down, the stump is still there — an obstacle in the yard, a source of sprouting regrowth, and often a termite invitation. Our stump grinding service takes it below grade so you can fill, replant, or lay sod over the spot. We handle stumps of all sizes, including large hardwood stumps with wide root flare, and can knock out multiple stumps in a single visit on the same property.
