Secure your rural property with professional Tree Service in Kintnersville, PA. Navigating the steep cliffs and dense woodlands of Nockamixon and Durham townships requires a crew with heavy-duty equipment and technical proficiency. Whether you are managing timber near the Delaware Canal or need site preparation for a hillside estate along Route 611 or Route 32, we provide the arborist expertise needed to manage your land. Our family-owned business specializes in the high-precision removal of hazardous trees in complex environments. Specifically, we prioritize the safety of your home and outbuildings during every phase of our deployment.
Kintnersville’s terrain, marked by steep rocky inclines, dense timber stands buffering Lake Nockamixon, and historic acreage along the Delaware River valley, presents unique challenges that demand high-angle expertise and heavy machinery.
Steep-Slope Extractions & High-Angle Rigging
Removing compromised timber along rocky hillsides or steep ravines requires specialized rigging and crane setups. Standard felling risks uncontrolled rolling or structural damage to downhill homes and outbuildings. We deploy heavy-duty cranes and high-angle friction lowering systems to hoist multi-ton sections vertically off slopes, protecting underlying structures and fragile valley soils.
Wind Shear Mitigation for Ridgeline Canopies
Trees perched on Kintnersville’s elevated ridges face extreme wind exposure during summer storms and winter ice events. Combined with shallow, rocky soil, mature oaks and maples are prone to windthrow and trunk failure. Our ISA-guided arborists perform crown-reduction pruning and install dynamic cabling systems to lower wind resistance and stabilize structural limbs before storms strike.
Our Services
We offer a full array of professional arborist solutions designed specifically for steep terrain, rural acreage, and residential lots. Our crew is prepared for everything from routine canopy trimming to technical crane removals.

I had a clump of large trees that outgrew the space and were near the house. I called ATS and explained to them what I needed. David came out and we spoke about different options and equipment that would be used. He then emailed me several estimates detailing those options and allowed me to chose. I thought the pricing was very fair and I was able to approve the job online. Alex and his crew came a few days later and took down all 12 trees over a 2 day period. The crew was very organized and professional. They took great care not to damage any surrounding obstacles. When they were finished they cleaned everything up including all the small debris that fell in the yard. You couldn't even tell they were there with all the trucks and equipment. The final price was exactly what I was quoted and I am very happy with the service and the overall experience. I would definitely recommend using ATS Tree Service.Posted on Google![]()

This was an A++ experience! I called Adam (owner) around 1 pm to see if he could swing by to look at a tree that split and was leaning toward the house. He was at our house within 15 minutes. He was very knowledgeable and answered every single question we had, and then some! Once he gave us an idea if the cost of the project, we talked timeline to get it done. He said he could probably be back in a bit to get started. I figured in an hour or two. He left around 1:30 pm, sent the quote, and was back out our house by 2 pm with his truck and gear. He was up in the boom and started cutting by 2:15 pm. He was very clearly skilled and worked quickly two drop two trees. He worked until he finished exactly what we asked him to do. This was such an awesome experience and it was much more economically priced than I expected. I 100% recommend ATS to anyone who is looking to have tree work done. They are a local business doing right by the community! A++!!!Posted on Google![]()

Tree removal on private residential property in Nockamixon and Durham Townships generally does not require a permit. However, properties located within protected Delaware Canal overlay districts or steep slope buffers may have specific guidelines. We help verify local township requirements prior to starting work.
We deploy heavy-duty mobile cranes positioned on stable ground to hoist tree sections vertically off slopes. Combined with technical high-angle rigging, this method prevents dangerous log rolls and protects structures below.
If the root system is secure and the trunk shows no major decay, we can install dynamic steel cabling systems and perform weight-reduction pruning to balance the crown and mitigate wind-throw risks.
Our self-propelled stump grinders can operate 6 to 12 inches below grade, grinding down the main stump core and surface roots so the ground can be smoothly re-seeded or landscaped.
Stationed locally in nearby Perkasie, PA, our emergency crews operate 24/7 to clear fallen trees blocking driveways, roads, or structures throughout Kintnersville and surrounding townships.
