Essential Steps for Ensuring Safety During Emergencies

Storm damage is becoming increasingly common. Even minor storms can cause weak or compromised trees to fail, potentially resulting in damage to your property. Here’s what you should do in such situations.

Establish basic safety: If medical attention is needed, seek help first before calling for tree removal. If power or communication lines were involved, call your utility company. Do not try to handle power lines yourself.
File your insurance claim: You need to get your claim started and a claim number to work with a tree service being paid by insurance.
Find a tree service that takes insurance claims: Not all do, and it's important to ask before the job, or you risk cleanup delays or out-of-pocket expenses.
Get a quote and hire a service: Ask for a site visit and written estimate before hiring the service.
Pay the tree service, and get reimbursed: Most tree services require payment upon completion, so you either need to wait for the insurance payment or wait to be reimbursed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you take down a fallen tree?

Our emergency tree removal services involve careful assessment, strategic cutting, and safe removal using specialized equipment. We first evaluate the tree’s position and any property damage. Then, we systematically remove branches before sectioning the trunk for removal.

What should you do if you find a fallen tree?

First, ensure everyone’s safety by staying clear of the area. Then, call Peachtree Arborists for emergency tree cutting. Don’t attempt to move or cut the tree yourself, as hidden tensions in fallen trees can cause dangerous kickbacks.

Who is responsible for fallen tree removal?

Generally, the property owner where the tree has fallen is responsible for its removal. However, if the tree fell due to negligence (e.g., disease was ignored), the original property owner might be liable. We recommend checking with your insurance provider and local regulations.

Is it OK to leave fallen trees?

While it might seem eco-friendly, leaving fallen trees can pose risks:

They become breeding grounds for pests and diseases
Deadfall can be a fire hazard, especially in dry conditions
Fallen trees can continue to damage structures or landscaping

Our tree cleanup service ensures complete removal, promoting a safer, healthier environment for your remaining trees and landscape.
