Emergency Tree Removal-Top 5 Tips

Emergency Tree Service Tips Urban Forest ProWith the Portland winter weather approaching, where freezing and thawing, build-ups of ice, and high winds can cause serious damage to your trees, you may find yourself in an emergency tree removal situation.

A limb or even a whole tree coming down unexpectedly can be incredibly stressful. Especially if it has crashed onto your home, garage, vehicle, or even fence. So, what should you do if a tree falls on your house? Here are some helpful tips in case you ever find yourself in that situation.

 

  1. Remember the best thing you can do when a tree falls on your car or your home, is to Remain Calm. There could be a host of people escalating the stress. Curious or irate neighbors depending on where the tree has fallen, Well-meaning passersby who do not understand how to deal with a fallen tree, even friends or family members might ask if they can go under a leaning tree for a minute for a picture, adding stress. Remember that none of these people are professionals, and it is always better to err on the side of caution, simply stay away until professional tree removal experts can be called.
  2. Don’t make an emergency tree removal situation more dangerous by getting too close.  You want to be a witness, not a victim. Trees that appear solidly supported, or stuck fast on the ground often shift or roll, causing personal injury or worse. Let our Portland area tree experts check it out. Stay clear and keep passersby clear as well. Often blocking off the area with sawhorses or a parked car can keep pedestrians from harm. And what should you do If a tree has fallen on a powerline or a tree is leaning on a powerline? Immediately call your local utility provider to let them know. This is the people whose name is on your power bill usually PGE or Pacific Power. At Urban Forest Pro, we have extensive experience in safely removing fallen branches and trees from a variety of precarious situations, including tree trimming around power lines.
  3. The next thing to determine is whether it really is an emergency. If the tree has fallen on a birdbath or fence, these wouldn’t be considered emergencies. After all, this is why we carry homeowner’s insurance. But if the tree has landed on your house, or could further slip, fall, and endanger your house, that is an emergency tree removal situation, and time to call your local certified arborist.
  4. Call us at Urban Forest Pro as soon as possible. We can make a determination about the relative danger of a fallen tree and can often mitigate the situation with tools we carry on us for these specific purposes. The sooner we can get one of our Portland tree experts out to view the situation, the better. Often it is easier to make a decision about removing the tree, once we have been able to assess and clearly explain the best way to remove the tree.
  5. If the tree has fallen and hits your house or another tree, insurance will normally pay. Our licensed arborists take care of the problem and then we bill your insurance, which can be time-consuming as well. We have more information on the cost/damage when removing a tree here.

One thing to note; storm-damaged trees are by nature more of a challenge and more work. Because of this, the tree work will typically cost more. Sometimes double what a similar project might cost that is scheduled through normal channels. We try to keep the costs competitive while providing you with safe, professional work. When you have a tree removal emergency reach out to your top Portland area arborist.
