Storm Damage Cleanup

When The Storm Passes, We Get To Work

Buffalo weather doesn't ask permission. A November wind event or an ice storm can drop a healthy tree across your driveway overnight, leave a half-fallen trunk hung up in another tree, or snap limbs that dangle over the sidewalk waiting to fall. Storm-damaged trees are the most dangerous trees to work on — they're under tension in ways that aren't obvious, and they move when cut.

Our crew handles storm work across Buffalo and Erie County: trees on structures, blocked driveways, hangers and leaners, and the general mess a storm leaves behind. We prioritize making the scene safe, document the damage as we go if you're filing an insurance claim, and clear everything down to the rake lines.

FAQ

Storm Damage Cleanup Questions

  • A tree fell on my house. What do I do first?
    • Keep everyone away from the tree and any downed wires, and call your utility if lines are involved. Then call us — trees on structures need careful piece-by-piece removal so the weight doesn't shift and cause more damage. Photograph everything for your insurer before cleanup if it's safe to do so.

  • Does homeowners insurance cover tree removal?
    • Often, when the tree damaged a covered structure — policies differ on trees that fall in the open yard. We provide itemized invoices and photos that make the claim straightforward; check the specifics with your insurer.

  • What's a "hanger" and why is it urgent?
    • A hanger is a broken limb caught in the tree instead of falling clear. It's already failed — the only question is when it drops and on what. If you see one over a walkway, driveway, or play area, keep people clear and have it removed promptly.

  • My neighbor's tree fell in my yard. Whose problem is it?
    • Generally the cleanup falls to the property where the tree landed, and your own insurance is the one to call — but a healthy tree versus a known-dead one can change things. We can document the tree's condition while we clear it.
