When a storm drops a tree, call us

Memphis gets hit hard. Spring and summer thunderstorms bring straight-line winds, and winter ice storms load limbs until they snap. The 2003 windstorm many locals call Hurricane Elvis showed how fast big trees can come down across the whole city. When a big tree or limb falls, it can crush a roof, block the only driveway, or leave a hanging limb ready to drop.

Our crew answers emergency calls day and night. We take the weight off your home first, secure anything still hanging, and clear a path so you can get in and out.

Insurance and storm damage

Most homeowners policies help pay to remove a tree that falls on a covered structure. We make the paperwork part easy.

Photos first

We photograph the damage before we move anything, so your adjuster can see what happened.

Written estimate

You get a clear written estimate for the removal that you can send to your insurance company.

Make it safe now

Your policy expects you to prevent more damage. Getting the tree off and the roof covered does that.

Finish later

Once the home is safe, we can come back for the rest of the tree and the stump at a normal pace.

Common questions

Do you really answer 24 hours a day?

Yes. Call (901) 389-2360 any time a tree is down or hanging dangerously.

A tree fell on my house. What do I do first?

Get everyone out of the damaged part of the house. If lines are down or you smell gas, call 911 and MLGW first and stay away from the wires. Take photos of the damage, then call us and your insurance company.

Will insurance pay for emergency tree removal?

When a tree falls on a covered structure like your house, garage, or fence, many policies help pay for removal. A tree that falls in the yard without hitting anything often is not covered. We give you photos and a written estimate for the claim.

How much does emergency tree removal cost?

Emergency work is priced on the size of the tree, how it is resting, and whether a crane is needed. We tell you the price before we start, even at night.

Can you tarp my roof after the tree is off?

Once the weight is off, we can help get a tarp over the opening to keep rain out until your roofer arrives.
