The climber for the trees no one else will touch.
Rob the Climber is Ooltewah's trusted tree service – a skilled climbing arborist who takes down the tall, the tight and the dangerous, safely and cleanly, then leaves your yard tidier than he found it.

A tradesman who climbs for a living.
Rob the Climber is led by Rob – a hands-on arborist who does the hard part himself, up in the canopy with spikes, harness and rope. Neighbors call him for the trees that lean over a roof, crowd a power line or tower too high for a bucket to reach. Prompt, honest, and fairly priced, with a finish that has earned a 4.9-star rating on Google.
- Technical climbing for tight, high and dangerous trees
- Honest, competitive quotes – no pressure
- Careful around houses, decks, fences and lines
- Every branch hauled away, yard left tidy
One call for the whole tree.

Tree Removal
Large, dead or dangerous trees taken down safely – even leaning over a house, deck or power line.

Trimming & Pruning
Deadwood, storm-damaged limbs and overgrowth trimmed back and shaped with a climber's care.

Stump Grinding
The old stump ground out and gone, so you get your yard back clear and level.

The tough ones are his favorite ones.
An 80-foot dying oak over the house. A cherry crowding the deck. A tree the big companies quoted sky-high. Rob climbs it, drops it where he says he will, and hauls it away – for a rate folks keep calling reasonable.

"Rob dropped 4 large trees that were close to my house and leaning towards the house. He dropped them safely away from my house in the perfect spot each time. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again."Nate Perry

Real trees. Real climbs.




Frequently asked questions.
Can't see your question? Call or text Rob on (423) 280-7332.
How much will it cost?
Every tree is different, so Rob comes out and gives a free, no-obligation estimate. Reviewers consistently call his pricing fair and competitive – often the lowest of the bids they got – with no pressure either way.
Can you get to a tree a bucket truck can't reach?
That's Rob's specialty. He's a climbing arborist – spikes, harness and rope – so he can work the tall, tight and awkward trees that crews with a bucket have to walk away from.
Do you clean up and haul the debris away?
Yes. Every job ends with the yard cleaned up and the debris hauled off. Customers regularly say you couldn't even tell he'd been there.
What areas do you cover?
Ooltewah and the surrounding areas. Nearby and not sure? Just ask when you call.

Got a tree that keeps you up at night?
