Fast, Safe Tree Removal for Lithia Springs Homeowners

Lithia Springs, just east of Douglasville along I-20, takes its name from the mineral springs that drew visitors here a century ago — today it's a mix of established residential streets and newer development near Sweetwater Creek State Park, with plenty of mature tree canopy along the creek corridor.

Lithia Springs is about 6 miles from downtown Douglasville, and the two run into each other: parts of Douglasville's city limits reach into the area along I-20, Thornton Road and Lee Road. Lithia Springs gave up its own city charter in 2000 and is now an unincorporated community of 16,644 people (2020 Census) inside Douglas County. The springs that named it were bottled as Bowden lithia water from 1887, and the old resort hotel burned in 1912.

Trees & Weather

Creek Ground and Tall Pines in Lithia Springs

Sweetwater Creek runs through the east side of Lithia Springs, and Sweetwater Creek State Park, more than 2,000 acres the Georgia Conservancy secured in the late 1960s, lines its southern edge. Lots that slope toward the creek hold tall loblolly pines and water oaks on damp clay. That ground is what decides a lot of removals here: on September 20–21, 2009, the Douglas County Water and Sewer Authority gauge logged 21.03 inches of rain in 24 hours, and saturated clay is when a creek-side pine's root plate starts to lift.

Our Tree Removal Service in Lithia Springs

Typical Lithia Springs work: a pine leaning toward the house after a soaking rain, limbs hanging over the roofs of older homes off Thornton Road, and dead trees at the back of lots that drop toward Sweetwater Creek. A tree on soft creek-bank ground usually has to come down in rigged pieces instead of being dropped, so we walk the slope before we price it. Stumps left over from an old storm cleanup are common here as well.

Permits

Whose Tree Rules Apply in Lithia Springs

Because Lithia Springs isn't a city, a tree here falls under Douglas County unless the address sits inside Douglasville's limits, which happens along I-20 and Thornton Road. The county keeps its tree conservation rules in Article 8 of its Unified Development Code, which is written around development; we couldn't read that text when we checked, so we confirm with Douglas County Planning & Zoning rather than guess. Near the creek, Georgia's Erosion and Sedimentation Act keeps a 25-foot vegetated buffer along state waters.
