Emergency Tree Removal

There are a few situations where emergency tree removal should be completed as soon as possible. While heavy storms are one of the primary causes of tree damage, you may find yourself needing emergency tree removal simply because your tree is old, rotting, or severely damaged. So even if skies are clear, if you see a tree in a precarious position, don’t hesitate to contact Doss Tree Service to ask about emergency tree removal right away.

Recognizing Hazardous Trees

A few fallen branches after heavy rain may not be a cause for concern, so how do you know when emergency tree removal is necessary? After all, trees add so much shade and charm to your property, you’re likely to avoid having them removed unless you absolutely have to.

You should ask a professional about emergency tree removal if your trees are:

  • Uprooted
  • Leaning on power lines
  • Blocking driveways
  • Threatening to fall on your home or vehicles

You should also call for emergency tree assistance if the problem is a large branch, rather than the whole tree. Heavy branches can still cause serious damage to your roof, power lines, and cars if they are cracked or at risk of falling. When in doubt, always err on the safe side for the sake of protecting your property and your own safety. A skilled tree removal technician can tell you for sure if your trees need to be removed.
