Why Emergency Tree Removal is Critical

Fallen or unstable trees can be incredibly dangerous, especially after a storm. They can damage homes, vehicles, and power lines—or worse, put your family at risk. In many cases, waiting too long can lead to further complications, including structural damage and safety hazards.

Rausch Tree & Outdoor Services specializes in:

  • Storm-Damaged Tree Removal – Clearing trees and debris after high winds, lightning strikes, or heavy snow.
  • Hazardous Tree Removal – Removing trees that pose an immediate danger to structures or people.
  • Blocked Driveways & Roads – Clearing fallen trees that obstruct access to homes, businesses, and streets.
  • Tree Stabilization & Risk Assessment – Identifying unstable trees that may need removal or corrective pruning before they fall.

We understand that emergencies don’t happen on a schedule—which is why we prioritize rapid response times and professional, efficient service when you need it most.

Signs You Need Emergency Tree Removal

It’s not always obvious when a tree is an immediate threat, but here are some warning signs that mean you should call our team right away:

  • A tree has already fallen on your home, driveway, or power lines.
  • Leaning trees with exposed or lifted roots, especially after storms.
  • Large, broken limbs hanging over buildings, cars, or walkways.
  • Cracked or split trunks that could cause the tree to break apart.
  • Trees with sudden instability due to shifting soil, flooding, or erosion.
  • Storm damage that left a tree weakened and vulnerable to collapse.
  •  

If you’re unsure, it’s always safer to get a professional tree risk assessment to determine whether removal or trimming is the best course of action.

Frequently Asked Questions About Emergency Tree Removal

How fast can you remove a fallen tree?

We prioritize emergency calls and aim to respond as quickly as possible—often within hours. The time required for removal depends on the tree’s size, location, and surrounding hazards, but we always work efficiently to restore your property’s safety.

In many cases, yes! If a tree falls due to a storm or other unexpected event and causes damage, homeowners insurance may cover removal costs. We recommend contacting your insurance provider, and we can assist with documentation if needed.

Yes, but tree removal near power lines requires extra precautions. We work closely with local utility companies to ensure safe removal without disrupting service.

If a tree is unstable but still standing, we offer tree risk assessments to determine if it needs removal or trimming. It’s always best to address the issue before it becomes an emergency.
