Understanding Storm Damage

Maryland weather can be unpredictable. High winds, heavy snow, and ice storms put tremendous stress on trees. Trees with weak branches, disease, or poor structure are most likely to fail during severe weather. Even healthy trees can suffer damage when storms are particularly intense.

After a storm, inspect your trees for warning signs. Look for hanging branches, split trunks, trees leaning at new angles, and roots that have lifted from the ground. These are all signs that a tree has become unstable and could fall. Do not wait for the tree to come down on its own.

The best way to prevent storm damage is regular tree maintenance. Our tree trimming services remove weak branches before storms hit. We also offer tree health assessments to identify trees that might pose risks during bad weather.

What to Do If a Tree Falls

If a tree falls on your property, stay calm and prioritize safety. First, make sure everyone is out of danger and away from the fallen tree. If the tree has damaged power lines, stay far away and call your utility company immediately. Never touch or go near downed power lines.

Once everyone is safe, assess the damage from a distance. Take photos for insurance purposes if it is safe to do so. Then call us for emergency tree removal. We will come out quickly to secure the scene and begin removal work.

Do not attempt to remove a large fallen tree yourself. Tree removal requires specialized equipment and training, especially in emergency situations. Trying to handle it on your own can lead to serious injury or additional property damage. Let our professionals handle the dangerous work while you focus on taking care of your family and property.
