Types of Tree Emergencies
Storm Damage Tree Removal and Clean Up
Heavy winds, lightning, and rain bring down limbs and whole trees. We’ve cleared trees from rooftops, garages, sidewalks, and even cars. We respond to storms across New York. In Brooklyn, Queens, or wherever the damage is, our crews roll out fast with the equipment and people needed to get the job done. We don’t wait until the morning to fix the issue, we can be to you 30 minutes from your phone call.
Hazardous Tree Removal for Fallen or Unstable Trees
Not every tree emergency is loud. Sometimes the tree’s still standing, but leaning the wrong way, cracking down the middle, or creaking under pressure.
If you’re looking at a tree and thinking, that’s not right, you’re probably correct. Give us a call and we’ll come take a look and remove it if it’s at risk of falling.
Tree Blocking Driveway, Roof, or Road
If a tree is blocking your driveway, sitting on your roof, or down across the road, we can take care of it. These situations create serious safety risks and delays, and they need fast, skilled tree removal. We don’t wait on paperwork or slow things down with red tape. We bring the right equipment and get the job done.
We Come Fully Equipped for Emergency Tree Work

We bring cranes, bucket trucks, rigging, and everything needed to handle large removals in tight spaces, even near power lines, for which we are EHAP certified. All of our crew members are trained, insured, and experienced.

It depends on your policy and the type of damage involved. In most cases, if a tree causes damage to a structure, like a house, fence, garage, or car, your homeowner’s insurance may cover the cost of removal and repairs.
If the tree falls but doesn’t cause direct damage, coverage may be limited. We’ve worked with many clients dealing with insurance claims, and we can help provide the necessary documentation you need.
There are warning signs to look out for. If the tree is leaning, cracking, or dropping large limbs, it may be unstable. Other red flags include exposed roots, hollow trunk sections, or fungus growing at the base.
Even if the tree looks healthy, prior damage from storms or pests can weaken it from the inside.If you’re unsure, give us a call, we’ll take a look, evaluate the risk, and tell you whether the tree needs to come down now or can safely wait.
