What to Do When a Tree Falls on Your Property
A fallen tree is stressful, and in the moment it can be hard to think clearly. Here is exactly what to do:
Step 1: Make sure everyone is safe. If the tree has hit your home, get everyone out of the affected area. If there is significant structural damage — a tree through the roof, a wall pushed in, or floors buckling — evacuate the home and do not go back inside until a structural assessment has been done.
Step 2: Call 911 if there is immediate danger. If someone is trapped, if there is a gas leak, or if the tree has caused a fire, call 911 first. Emergency responders will secure the scene and address life-safety issues before tree work begins.
Step 3: Stay away from power lines. This is critical. If a tree has fallen on or near power lines, assume every wire is live and deadly. Do not touch the tree, the wires, or anything in contact with either. Do not try to move branches off the lines. Call your utility provider — SMECO at (888) 440-3311 for most of Southern Maryland, BGE if you are in northern Calvert County, or Dominion Energy for King George County, VA. Wait for the utility crew to de-energize the lines before anyone approaches.
Step 4: Document everything with photos and video. Before anything is moved or cleaned up, take photos from multiple angles. Capture the tree, the damage to your home or property, the surrounding area, and any personal property that was affected. This documentation is essential for your insurance claim, and it is much harder to get after cleanup has begun.
Step 5: Call 855TREEMAN at (855) 873-3626. Once immediate safety concerns are addressed, call us. We will get a crew to your property as quickly as conditions permit. During major storm events, we prioritize by severity — trees on occupied structures come first, followed by trees on vehicles, trees blocking access, and then non-emergency hazards.
Our Emergency Tree Service Process
When you call us for an emergency, here is what happens:
Rapid dispatch — We assess the situation over the phone, determine what equipment is needed, and send a crew. During normal business hours, response is typically within a few hours. During major storm events, we triage and work around the clock until every call is addressed.
Safety assessment on arrival — Our crew chief evaluates the scene before anyone starts cutting. We look for energized power lines, structural instability, hanging limbs (called “widow makers” for a reason), and any other hazards that could injure crew members or cause additional damage during the removal process.
Secure the area — We establish a safety perimeter, communicate with utility workers if power lines are involved, and shore up any immediate structural risks. If the tree has penetrated your roof, we can tarp the opening to prevent further water damage while we work.
Remove the tree — Using the safest technique for the situation — whether that is sectional removal with rigging, crane-assisted lifting, or careful felling — we get the tree off your structure, vehicle, or driveway.
Full cleanup — We remove all debris, chip brush, and leave the area as clean as conditions allow. If the tree damaged landscaping or fencing, we can provide a separate estimate for that work once the emergency is resolved.
When to Call for Emergency Tree Service
Not sure if your situation qualifies as an emergency? Here are the scenarios where you should not wait:
Tree on a structure — house, garage, shed, deck. Even if the damage looks minor, a tree resting on a structure can shift and cause further collapse.
Tree on a vehicle — do not try to move the car. Let us remove the tree first to avoid additional damage.
Tree blocking a road or driveway — if you cannot get in or out of your property, that is an emergency.
Tree on power lines — call the utility company first, then call us. We work with SMECO, BGE, and Dominion Energy crews regularly.
Severely leaning tree that could fall at any moment — especially after heavy rain has saturated the soil and loosened the root system.
Hanging branches about to fall — large broken limbs caught in the canopy can drop without warning. If they are over a walkway, driveway, or play area, call us.
Emergency Tree Removal Cost
We believe in transparent pricing, even in emergencies:
During business hours — if your situation can be safely scheduled within the same day or next day, we charge our standard rates. Not every fallen tree requires an immediate after-hours response.
After-hours emergency response — for true emergencies requiring immediate crew dispatch outside normal business hours (evenings, weekends, holidays), expect rates approximately 1.5x to 2x our standard pricing. This reflects overtime labor, equipment mobilization, and the inherent complexity of working in storm conditions or darkness.
We always provide a verbal estimate before beginning work so there are no surprises. During major storm events when demand surges, we maintain fair pricing and do not gouge our neighbors.
Storm Preparedness Tips
The best time to deal with a hazardous tree is before the storm hits. Here is how to protect your property:
Schedule a pre-storm inspection. Have one of our certified arborists walk your property and identify trees with structural weaknesses, deadwood, or root problems that make them vulnerable to storm failure. An hour of prevention can save thousands in emergency removal costs.
Remove dead trees before storm season. Dead trees are guaranteed to fail eventually — the only question is when and which direction. Taking them down on your schedule, during a calm day, is safer and far less expensive than emergency removal after they have fallen on something.
Trim branches near structures. Crown reduction and clearance pruning on trees close to your home, garage, and power service line reduces the risk of damage when high winds hit. We recommend addressing this in late winter or early spring before the April-through-October storm season in the Chesapeake region.
Know who to call. Save our number — (855) 873-3626 — in your phone now, before you need it. When a tree falls at midnight in a thunderstorm, you do not want to be searching the internet for a tree service.
