What storm cleanup covers
Pennsylvania weather can snap limbs, split trunks, and scatter debris across a whole property overnight. A cleanup visit typically includes cutting up fallen limbs and downed trees, clearing branches off lawns, driveways, and beds, and hauling the debris away.
If a tree looks dangerous right now
Keep people, pets, and vehicles well away from leaning, split, or hanging trees — especially anywhere near power lines. If lines are involved, contact your utility company first. Then reach out to us and describe what you see so we can help you plan the safest next step.
- Fallen limbs and downed trees cut up and removed
- Debris cleared from lawns, beds, and driveways
- Damaged trees assessed for trimming or removal
- Yard left tidy once the work is done
After the cleanup
Some storm-damaged trees recover with corrective pruning; others need to come down. Once the immediate mess is cleared, we can walk the property with you and recommend what makes sense for each affected tree.
Cleanup or emergency — which is it?
Not every storm mess is an emergency, and not every emergency can wait for a routine visit. A quick rule of thumb:
- Call right away if a tree is on the house, car, or fence — or leaning hard enough that it could get there.
- Call right away if limbs are hanging, cracked, or tangled anywhere near power lines (and call the utility too).
- Request a standard cleanup for scattered limbs, a downed tree lying clear in the yard, and general debris.
When in doubt, describe what you see when you contact us — we will help you sort it into the right bucket.
What affects the scope of the job
Storm visits range from an hour of limb pickup to a full day with heavy cutting. The drivers are simple:
- How much came down — a few limbs versus multiple trees changes everything.
- Size of the material — brush and small limbs move fast; big trunk wood needs cutting and equipment.
- Access — debris in an open lawn clears quickly; material tangled in fences, beds, or on structures takes care.
- Haul-away — clearing and stacking on-site is one job; loading and hauling it all off is a bigger one.
A note on insurance
We can’t speak to what your homeowner’s policy covers — that is between you and your insurer. What helps any claim: take photos of the damage before anything is moved, keep a simple list of what was affected, and hold onto any paperwork from the work. If your adjuster needs a written description of what was done, just ask.
Storm Cleanup FAQs
Stay clear of damaged trees and any downed lines, and keep others away too. If power lines are involved, call your utility first. Then contact us to discuss cleanup.
Sometimes. Trees that lost limbs but kept a sound trunk and root plate can often be pruned back into shape. Trees that split badly or uprooted usually need removal. We’ll give you a straight recommendation either way.
Yes. Limbs, brush, and storm debris are hauled away as part of the cleanup, and the area is tidied before we leave.
It depends on conditions and how many properties were hit by the same storm. Dangerous situations — trees on structures, blocked access — go first. Contact us with details and photos if you can, and we will schedule you as quickly as possible.
Take it seriously. Saturated soil plus a new lean can mean the root plate has shifted. Keep everyone clear of the fall zone and contact us — we will assess whether it can be stabilized and pruned or needs to come down. See tree removal for how that works.
