Common Types of Storm Tree Damage

Storms can leave broken branches hanging in the canopy, split major limbs, damage trunks, or disturb a tree’s root system. A tree may also lean differently after the ground becomes saturated. Some damage is obvious, while other structural problems may be difficult to see from the ground. Treat damaged trees cautiously until they have been assessed.

Safety Comes First

Stay away from hanging limbs, cracked trunks, and partially uprooted trees. Do not attempt to cut a branch that is under tension or climb into a damaged tree. If a tree or limb has contacted a power line, keep well clear and contact the utility provider or emergency services as appropriate. If anyone is in immediate danger, contact emergency services.

Emergency Removal and Storm Cleanup

Depending on the condition and location of the tree, the appropriate work may involve removing a fallen tree, addressing a hazardous limb, or planning a controlled removal. Reliable Tree Service offers 24/7 emergency service. Response timing depends on conditions, access, crew availability, and the severity of active incidents, so contact the team to explain the situation.

Specialized Equipment for Storm Work

Storm-damaged trees can be heavy, unstable, or difficult to access. Reliable Tree Service has a grapple truck, spider lift, bucket truck, and large loader available for suitable jobs. Equipment selection depends on the site and the work needed. Some situations require additional precautions or coordination before work can safely proceed.

Insurance and Documentation

If storm damage may be covered by insurance, contact your insurer to ask what documentation is required. Photographs should only be taken from a safe location. Keep records of the damage and any communication with your insurer. Do not assume that insurance billing or direct billing is available; confirm payment arrangements with Reliable Tree Service and your insurer before work begins.
