Storm Damage & Fallen Tree Removal
We'll Quickly Get Things Back To Normal
Whether it's due to a hurricane, tornado, summer thunderstorm, or another unexpected event, fallen and broken trees can put everything on hold until they're safely removed.
Storm cleanup is definitely not a DIY job. Leaning, split, uprooted, and otherwise damaged trees are under enormous stresses that make them react in highly unpredictable - and extremely dangerous - ways. Please, do NOT attempt to cut down or remove a storm-damaged tree yourself!
Fallen & Hazardous Tree Removal
When trees fall or sustain massive damage from a storm, they become exceptionally unstable. Often, they cannot be removed without heavy equipment and skilled equipment operators who can safely manoeuver the tree parts away from your home.
When a tree falls on a house or other structure, a car, or on a sidewalk, driveway or road, it needs to be removed quickly. Whether it's on private property, a public roadway, commercial property, or within an HOA, the ISA Certified Arborists at Riverbend will swiftly clear the tree away so you can regain access and begin any necessary repairs.
Hazardous trees include those that have:
- split apart at the trunk
- developed a large crack in the trunk or on big branches
- large branches that have broken and are hanging in the tree
- started leaning, or are leaning more than before
- roots pulling out of the ground, cut away, or damaged
- large rotten areas (this may not always be visible)
- power lines or wires caught in the branches
If you notice any of these issues after a storm (or at any time), give us a call ASAP to schedule a tree inspection. If the tree is deemed hazardous, it should be removed right away.
Storm Damage & Debris Cleanup
When trees are uprooted, broken branches are hanging from wires and littering the ground, or yard structures and furniture have been sent flying in all directions, you can count on Riverbend to clean up the mess.
With our experience and specialized equipment, we can safely cut up and quickly remove large trees and branches. We'll gather and dispose of the debris so you can get back into your yard without tripping over dangerous objects.
Our ISA Certified Arborists can also inspect your remaining trees to see whether they pose a risk during future storms, and recommend corrective actions that can prevent further damage.
