Mathews sits in the rural countryside east of Pike Road, where farmhouses nestle among pecan groves and sprawling pastures dotted with massive shade oaks. If you own property here in 36052, you know those big live oaks and water oaks are part of what makes Mathews special, but they also demand expert care when storms roll through or limbs start threatening your roof and power lines.

Montgomery Tree Service has been serving Mathews homeowners and land managers for years. We understand the challenges of working on country lots where trees are bigger, access can be tight, and land clearing often means removing multiple trees across pasture and grove. When you need a tree removed, trimmed, or your land cleared, we show up on time, do the work right, and leave your property clean.

Tree Service in Mathews (36052)

Mathews is cattle and pecan country, with farmhouses spread across rolling Black Belt prairie and wooded lots. The canopy here is dominated by live oak, water oak, and pecan trees, mixed with loblolly and longleaf pine, southern magnolia, and sweetgum. These are big, valuable trees, but they can also be dangerous when storm damage strikes, when limbs hang over structures or power lines, or when you're clearing land for pasture or new construction.

Our team knows Mathews terrain and trees. We've handled emergency removals after ice and wind damage, cleared overgrown lots for new development, trimmed massive oaks without damaging fences or pasture, and ground stumps on tight residential and commercial properties. We're fully insured, and we work safely around overhead utility lines and property boundaries that matter in a rural community like this.

How a Job Works in Mathews

First, we come out for a free on-site assessment. We'll look at the tree or trees you need removed or trimmed, check access routes (driveways, gates, fences), note any structures or power lines nearby, and discuss what you want done. On country lots, we pay special attention to equipment access and debris haul-out, since rural properties often have longer distances to navigate.

Once we agree on scope and price, our crew arrives with the right equipment for the job. For tree removal, we fell the tree safely, limb it out, and haul debris to our trucks. For trimming, we prune according to best practices, removing dead wood, crossing limbs, and storm-damaged branches. For land clearing, we remove multiple trees, grind stumps if you want, and can chip or haul brush. We work around fences, pasture, and structures with care.

When we're done, we clean up. You get a clear lot, a manicured yard, or a safely trimmed canopy. We don't leave mess behind.

Pricing for tree work in Mathews depends on what you need. Tree removal typically starts at a free estimate and ranges widely based on tree size, species, access, and whether we're removing one oak or clearing a whole lot. Trimming and pruning start at $250 and vary with tree count and scope. Stump grinding runs from $150 per stump. Land clearing on country property is priced per job, and we'll give you a firm quote after we see the site. The best way to know what your project will cost is to call us at (334) 781-7688 for a free estimate. We'll walk your property, ask the right questions, and give you an honest price.

I have big pecan and oak trees on my Mathews property. How often should I have them trimmed?
Mature pecan and oak trees in Mathews benefit from trimming every 3 to 5 years to remove dead wood, thin the canopy, and reduce wind resistance during storms. In our climate, late winter and early spring (January through March) is ideal for most pruning, when trees are dormant and we can see the branch structure clearly. If you notice storm damage, dead limbs, or crossing branches anytime during the year, don't wait. Call us at (334) 781-7688 for a free assessment.
A big limb from my neighbor's oak is hanging over my fence and roof. What are my options?
Alabama property law says you can trim branches that cross your property line, but you must stay on your side of the line and cannot damage the tree. Many disputes start here, so our advice is to talk to your neighbor first and offer to split the cost of professional trimming. If your neighbor won't cooperate, you can hire us to carefully trim the overhanging portion back to the property line. We've done this many times in Mathews and know how to do it safely without harming the tree. Call (334) 781-7688 to discuss.
What happens if a tree falls on my house or car during a storm?
Call us immediately at (334) 781-7688. We offer emergency tree removal service 24/7 for storm damage, fallen trees on structures or vehicles, and hazardous hanging limbs. We'll get a crew to your Mathews property as quickly as possible to make the area safe, remove the tree, and document the damage for your insurance claim. Document photos yourself if it's safe to do so, and contact your insurance company right away.
Do I need a permit to remove a tree on my property in Mathews?
Permit requirements vary by jurisdiction in the Montgomery area. Some cities require permits for trees above a certain diameter, and there may be heritage tree ordinances protecting certain species like oak. We recommend checking with the City of Mathews or your local municipality before removing any large tree. The City of Mathews website at https://www.mc-ala.org can direct you to the right department. We're familiar with local rules and can help coordinate permitting if needed. Call us at (334) 781-7688 to discuss your specific situation.
I'm clearing land for pasture or new construction in Mathews. Can you handle the whole project?
Yes. We offer land clearing services tailored to rural Mathews properties. We can remove multiple trees, grind stumps, chip or haul brush, and leave your lot ready for whatever comes next. We'll work with your contractor or surveyor to stay within property lines and avoid existing structures. Call (334) 781-7688 for a free estimate on your land clearing project.
Are you fully insured for tree work on my property?
Yes. Montgomery Tree Service is fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage. We carry the insurance you need for peace of mind when our crew is working on your Mathews property. Ask us for proof of insurance before we start any job.
Should I have my trees trimmed before the storm season in Mathews?
Absolutely. Late winter (February and March) is the best time to have trees trimmed before spring storms and summer thunderstorms arrive. Removing dead wood, thinning the canopy, and eliminating crossing or weak branches reduces wind resistance and the chance of storm damage. If you have trees overhanging your roof or near power lines, trimming is especially important. Call us at (334) 781-7688 to schedule a pre-storm inspection and trimming.
