Our crews have over 20 years of experience handling storm-damaged trees across MA and NH. We bring the right equipment, the right insurance, and the right pace — assess, stabilize, remove, clean up — so you can stop worrying and start getting back to normal.

When Storm Damage Becomes an Emergency
Not every storm-damaged tree is an emergency, but some absolutely are. If any of these apply, don't wait — call now.
Weight shifts. Branches under tension can snap. Get a professional on site before it moves again.
A new lean after a storm means root failure. The tree may look stable. It is not.
Call us and your utility. Never approach a tree near downed lines, even if the lines look dead.
We clear access fast and handle the haul-away so you don't have to wait days for the town.
These come down on their own, on their own schedule. They need to be removed under control.
Cracked trunks and split crotches are mid-failure. Move people and pets away and call.
How 24/7 Storm Response Works
When you call, here's what happens — same whether it's 2 p.m. on a Tuesday or 3 a.m. during a Nor'easter.
-
You call. We pick up.
A real person on the phone, day or night. We get the address, the situation, and any safety concerns.
-
Crew dispatched
Our nearest available crew rolls with the equipment the job needs — saw kit, rigging, or crane.
-
On-site safety assessment
Before a single cut, we check tension, lean, structural risk, and anything overhead. Power lines get a stop.
-
Controlled removal
Rigging, sectional dismantling, or crane-assisted removal for heavy or hard-to-reach pieces. No improvising.
-
Cleanup & haul-away
Limbs, debris, leaves, ruts. We leave your property safer than we found it.
-
Insurance documentation
Photos, an itemized invoice, and what your adjuster needs. We've done this hundreds of times.
Storm Damage We Take Care Of
Every storm leaves something different behind. We've seen it all in 20+ years working New England properties.
Downed Trees
Whole trees on the ground, on structures, or across driveways. We safely cut, section, and haul.
Fallen & Broken Limbs
Large branches that have snapped or fallen, including limbs caught up in surrounding trees.
Leaning & Uprooted Trees
Trees that shifted in saturated ground or lost root anchorage. These need to come down before the next gust.
Snow & Ice Damage
Loaded branches, split crotches, and bent stems from heavy snow and ice events.
Hanging "Widowmakers"
Broken limbs lodged in the canopy that haven't dropped yet. Removed under controlled rigging.
Storm Debris & Cleanup
Branches, brush, splinters, leaves. Full debris removal so the yard is usable again.
Trees on Power Lines
We coordinate with the utility and handle the tree-side work once the line is safe.
Structural Tree Damage
Cracked trunks, split unions, partial failures that need professional hazard assessment and removal.
Crane-Assisted Storm Removal
Some storm jobs are not safe to climb. A tree on the roof, a leaner over the driveway, a 70-foot pine wedged between two houses — those need a crane.
We run our own crane work, which means we don't subcontract the most dangerous part of the job. The crane operator and the climber communicate directly. Sections come off in a controlled lift, away from your house, every time.
- Trees on or against structures
- Heavy leaners with compromised root plates
- Hard-to-access yards and tight setbacks
- Large diameter pines, oaks, and hardwoods
We Help With Your Storm Damage Claim
Most homeowners insurance covers tree removal when a tree has caused damage to a covered structure — your home, garage, fence, vehicle. The trick is documentation, and that's where most homeowners get stuck.
We give you what your adjuster needs:
- Photos of the damage and the removal
- Itemized invoice with scope of work
- Proof of licensing and insurance
- Direct communication with your adjuster if you want it

Storm Damage & Emergency Tree Removal — Questions We Get
How fast can you get to my property after a storm?
For active emergencies — tree on a house, blocking a road, on power lines — we work to get a crew out the same day, often within hours. After a region-wide storm event, response time depends on call volume, but we triage based on safety risk so the most dangerous situations get handled first.
Call MA at (781) 244-3782 or NH at (603) 234-1812 and we'll give you a real ETA, not a guess.
Are you really available 24/7?
Yes. Our emergency line is staffed around the clock, including nights, weekends, and during active storms. Storms don't keep business hours, and neither do we.
What does emergency storm tree removal cost?
It depends on the tree, the location, the access, and what equipment the job needs. A single fallen branch is very different from a 60-foot pine on a roof. We give free same-day quotes, either online or by phone, so you'll know before any work starts.
If the damage is covered by your homeowners policy, your out-of-pocket may be limited to your deductible.
Will my homeowners insurance cover this?
Often, yes — when a storm-damaged tree has hit a covered structure (home, garage, fence, vehicle), most policies cover removal up to a limit. Coverage rules vary by carrier and policy, so check with your provider. We provide the documentation your adjuster will ask for.
For more detail, see our tree service insurance claims guide.
What if a tree is on a power line?
Stay away from it. Call your utility first to de-energize the line, then call us. We do not cut on a live line — nobody safe does. Once the utility clears the line, we handle the tree.
Can you remove a tree leaning against my house without making it worse?
Yes. Leaning trees on structures are exactly the situations our crane and rigging work was built for. We section the tree from the top down, with controlled lifts away from the house. The goal is to remove the tree without adding a single new scratch to your property.
Do you handle the cleanup, or just the tree?
Cleanup is included. We remove the tree, the limbs, the debris, and the brush. If you want stump grinding handled at the same time, we can do that too. You're not left with a yard full of work after we leave.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes — fully licensed and insured for both Massachusetts and New Hampshire, including liability and workers' comp. Always ask for proof of insurance before hiring any tree service after a storm; this is when uninsured operators show up and cause more problems than they solve.
