What Qualifies as a Tree Emergency
Not every fallen branch requires immediate attention, but certain situations demand swift action to keep you and your property safe. Here’s what we consider a tree emergency:
- Trees or large limbs fallen on structures, vehicles, or power lines
- Trees that have developed a sudden lean, posing a fall risk
- Large, hanging branches that pose an imminent risk
- Trees blocking driveways, roads, or walkways
- Storm-damaged trees with split trunks or major limb loss
If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies as an emergency, don’t hesitate to call us 24/7 at 314-322-7690. We’ll assess the urgency, provide guidance, and dispatch our team as soon as possible.
