Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do immediately after a tree falls on my property?
First, keep everyone away from the area. Downed trees near electrical lines are especially dangerous and should never be approached until the utility company has confirmed the lines are safe. If the tree has made contact with your home or a structure, avoid going inside until a professional has assessed the situation. Once you and your household are clear of the immediate hazard, call us. Our 24-hour emergency tree service is always available, and we will dispatch a crew as quickly as possible to take over from there.
Will my homeowner's insurance cover the cost of emergency tree removal?
In many cases, yes, at least partially. Most standard homeowner’s insurance policies cover emergency fallen tree removal when the tree has damaged a covered structure, such as your home, fence, or garage. If a tree falls in your yard without hitting anything, coverage is less consistent and depends on your specific policy. This is one of the reasons our team documents visible tree and property damage during the cleanup process, giving you records that can support your claim. We recommend contacting your insurance provider as soon as possible after an incident to understand what your policy covers.
How do I know if a storm-damaged tree is a true emergency or something that can wait?
Any tree or large limb that is actively threatening a structure, blocking access to your property, leaning against power lines, or at immediate risk of falling should be treated as an emergency. Our storm damage tree experts can help you make that call if you are unsure. When in doubt, it is always safer to have a certified arborist assess the situation quickly rather than wait and risk the tree coming down on its own terms.
What if the tree falls on the property line or into my neighbor's yard?
This is a more common situation than most people expect, and the answer often depends on where the tree originated. Generally speaking, the property owner whose land the tree was rooted on carries the primary responsibility for removal, though liability for damage to a neighbor’s property can be more complicated depending on the circumstances. As an emergency tree removal company, we handle the physical work regardless of which side of the line the tree landed on. For questions about liability and coverage, your insurance provider and a local attorney are the right resources.
Can emergency tree trimming prevent a full removal after storm damage?
Sometimes. Not every storm-damaged tree needs to come down. If the main structure of the tree is sound and the damage is limited to specific branches or sections, emergency tree trimming can address the immediate hazard, stabilize the tree, and preserve what is worth saving. Our arborists assess each situation individually and will give you an honest recommendation based on what the tree actually needs rather than defaulting to removal when it is not necessary.
