Shrub & Tree Installation in Birmingham, AL
Design-minded shrub and tree planting that fills out beds, frames entryways, and adds lasting curb appeal.
Overgrown foundation shrubs, bare beds, or plants that never should have been placed where they were are some of the most common calls we get. SOG Services plants and replaces shrubs and trees with an eye toward how they'll actually look in three years, not just on install day — proper spacing, the right plant for the light and soil conditions, and a layout that frames the house instead of hiding it.
We handle everything from a single specimen tree to a full bed renovation: removing what's overgrown or dead, amending the soil, and planting shrubs and trees suited to your yard's sun exposure and drainage. Every planting gets finished with mulch or pine straw so beds look complete the day we leave.
Plant Choices That Work in Birmingham, AL
Alabama's clay-heavy soil and humid summers narrow down what actually thrives here. We lean on shrubs and trees that are proven performers in the Birmingham area — boxwoods, hollies, azaleas, hydrangeas, and crepe myrtles are staples for a reason — while still working with your style and budget. Established trees that just need shaping rather than replacing fall under our tree trimming service instead.
Replacing an Established Bed?
If a bed has gotten out of hand — overgrown shrubs crowding walkways, plants that have died out, or a layout that's just dated — we can clear it and start fresh in the same visit, right through to the finished mulch or pine straw. This is especially common on the older, established lots we maintain in Mountain Brook and Homewood.
