Built on a Simple Belief: Do It Right the First Time

Absolute Tree Service & Outdoor Drainage was founded in 1999 on a straightforward principle — outdoor drainage and tree work should deliver lasting results, not temporary patches that fail after the next rainstorm.

After years of working throughout Williamson and Davidson County, we witnessed firsthand how many homeowners struggled with recurring standing water, erosion, foundation damage, and hazardous trees — often after paying contractors whose work simply didn't hold up. We built our company to be the dependable alternative.

Today, we specialize in comprehensive drainage systems and professional tree services designed specifically for Tennessee's unique soil and weather conditions. Every project we take on is approached with honesty, precision, and a commitment to long-term performance.

"All work was done promptly and professionally. I could not be happier!"

Durwood E.

"Byron and his team were punctual and professional at all times. Byron explained clearly the planned work and was patient in listening to and answering my questions. Teresa is prompt in returning emails and always friendly on the phone. They encapsulated the crawl space and placed an industrial dehumidifer and made sure all downspouts were channeled away from the house to a point the water would drain away. They regraded a portion of my yard so that the water would flow away from the house and oversewed the area nicely with grass seed. They reinforced a small area of the wall from inside the crawl space with concrete. "

"Exceptional! I cannot say enough about this company, their work ethics, installations, kindness & politeness. From the first phone call into the office to the final day of the installation it was an actual pleasure doing business with Absolute. Byron & his expertise/knowledge are far above & beyond what you might expect. He didn't try to pressure sell nor did he try to sell us anything we did not actually need. I would hire Absolute again without question and recommend them without hesitation. If you have any yard drainage issues, moisture or dampness in your crawlspace or basement or any water issue that is caused from rain/storm water Absolute is the company you should call. You will likely have to wait awhile because they are booked up, but they are booked up because they are Exceptional! "

"Byron Lowe, one of the company's owners, came out to look at what needed to be done. After looking at the basement, he suspected that water from the gutters was causing the problem. When he got up on a ladder and examined the gutter over the leak, he discovered it had a big hole in it. He sealed the hole with caulk, and also cleared the gutter and roof of leaves. He suggested that we have another gutter installed next to the front porch. We were very relieved that an expensive repair wasn't needed. "

"It took a long time till they could do the work because we had a wet summer and the company was covered up with work, but Theresa and Byron (the owners) kept me informed and let me know when they would be able to come to do my house. The crew brought heavy equipment and completed 6 downspout drainage pipes to get the water further away from my house and one condensation line from a heat pump AC unit that was pouring water out next to my house every summer. The job was completed in a morning. "

"Professional and friendly crew - about a 3 day job overall as estimated. Left yard in good condition and took time to explain what was done. "

"Could not have been more professional. Byron and company stand behind their product. No worries as a customer. Loved the end result....I wish they performed all other trades! Left the site in better condition then they found it. Crew was first class enjoyed having them. "

Deborah M.

"The proposal and application process was flawless. Byron and Theresa Lowe are great people with whom to deal. Byron gives advice to the client on how to drain water away from the structure. I will use Absolute for any future needs within their area of expertise. They are very competitive on price and leave everything clean and neat upon completion. "
