Is My Tree Removal an Emergency Job?

5 Signs That You Need Emergency Tree Removal

Emergency tree removal isn’t always about that fallen tree in your driveway or the one that split in half during another one of those overnight North Texas storms. Many times, a property owner isn’t aware that they’ve got an emergency on their hands.

Sure, your tree may look fine right now, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a potential hazard in the near future. So, let's answer the question: Is My Tree Removal an Emergency Job?

Here Are Five Common Signs That You May Need Emergency Tree Removal

Dangerous tree branches — If your tree is positioned too close to power lines, it might not be long before some of its branches become a severe hazard to anyone or anything in the area. Many times, you can cut the limbs back without having to remove the entire tree. However, if you notice this in combination with too many branches that appear weak or are cracking too easily, it might be time for an emergency tree removal. To know for sure, call a certified arborist at Clean Edge Tree Service & Removal.
Pest and disease infestation — It is normal for trees to run into problems with insects such as beetles, ants, worms, etc. The same applies to diseases that lead to fungal growth, bark cankers, rot, and leaf discoloration. That said, if it’s been a while since you treated your tree and lawn, and insects and diseases have taken over and damaged your tree, it’s likely that your tree won’t survive much longer. The best-case scenario is that your tree will die and can be safely removed anytime. The worst-case scenario, however, is that those diseases and pests make the tree more susceptible to falling. This is where emergency tree removal helps.
Damaged roots — Tree roots provide your tree with a stable foundation and give it access to proper nutrients and water year-round. If those roots have been cut or damaged in any way, you could have a disaster on your hands. This includes everything from the tree being at risk of falling in the future, increased soil erosion, and a gradual decline in the tree’s overall health.
The tree is leaning far too much — Granted, not all trees stand perfectly straight. That said, you likely have an emergency tree removal issue on your hands if your tree looked straight four months ago and now leans heavily to one side. A leaning tree is not only a sign of a dying tree but also presents a significant safety concern since the tree could eventually fall.
Cracks or cavities in the tree truck — Again, the fact that your tree has cracks or cavities isn’t always a cause for concern. But if you are worried, it’s best to have it professionally inspected to ensure you don’t need emergency tree removal. The last thing you want is to assume everything is fine and then have that tree fall over and cause damage.

Clean Edge Tree Service Wants To Be Your Emergency Tree Removal Partner

Some tree service professionals in town may not offer 24-7 storm clean-up and emergency tree removal because they don’t have the right equipment to handle such a dangerous task. And if they do, they don’t always want to do the work at 3 a.m. or whenever you need it done. If possible, we’ll be in our trucks and on our way to your property as soon as you give us your address. From there, we will assess the situation and provide an estimate before we begin working on the problem.

Here’s what you can expect from working with us:

Step 1: Call our owner, Henry Landeros, at 972-689-5102. Give us as many details as possible about your emergency, including the tree's location, how it’s impacting your property and safety, and any pictures you can take. If we don’t answer right away, text the same information to us, along with your name, address, phone number, and any key details we need to know. You can trust that we will call you back quickly and work out plans to visit your property.

Step 2: While you wait for us to arrive, staying out of harm’s way is essential. Do not attempt to get started on removing the tree yourself. This likely won’t make our job any easier and could cause you to get hurt. That said, it is OK for you to observe the tree's location from a safe distance and let us know of any additional threats you may see.

Step 3: Once we arrive, we’ll create a game plan to remove the tree safely and efficiently. As surprising as it may sound, removing a fallen tree leaning against or on top of a structure is more dangerous than removing a standing tree. If you cut the wrong limb or attempt to manually move the tree without properly securing/bracing it first, you risk causing unnecessary damage and possibly bodily injury. We know how to do this without creating additional risks.
