Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to get a permit approved?
Approval times vary by city, typically ranging from 2-4 weeks. Atlanta city permits usually process within 3 weeks. Rush Service can prioritize your application and often reduce this timeline by several days.
Do you handle commercial properties?
We primarily serve residential properties. Commercial permits often have additional requirements like site traffic plans and contractor certifications. Please contact us with your specific project details and we can advise if we can assist or provide referrals.
What if I don't have a Certified Arborist letter?
Many permits don’t require a Certified Arborist letter, it depends on your city and tree specifications. We’ll let you know during your consultation if one is needed. If required, we have trusted Certified Arborist referrals ready to help.
Can I start removal before getting the permit?
No. Starting removal before permit approval can result in significant fines and legal complications. Always wait for official approval. Our process gets you approved quickly so you can proceed with confidence.
What if my application is denied?
Denials are rare, but if it happens, the city provides specific reasons. We can often address those concerns and resubmit. Some cases may require a Certified Arborist assessment or additional documentation, we’ll guide you through next steps.
