Storm Preparation & Clean Up

Be Prepared. Reduce Storm Damage.

Hurricane Season

Our Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1st through November 30th. We have been fortunate the last few years, but recommend everyone continue to take precautions!

 

Don’t get left out in the storm, be prepared! Storms may cause limbs or entire trees to fall, often landing on homes, cars, other structures or other trees. Preparations can be taken to help your trees “weather” storms a lot better! In the event that you do have storm damaged trees, remember that they can be very dangerous to remove or trim, but prompt trimming of the injured limb(s) will encourage wound closure. Our arborists can assist in performing the job in a safe manner, while reducing further risk of damage to your property.

Freeze Damage

Although not common we do experience weather conditions harsh enough to cause freeze damage to our trees and shrubs. Protection or prevention of freeze damage is the most desirable way to combat this problem. Plants that are not cold hardy can be covered for protection when a freeze is predicted. We recommend using cloth such as sheets or burlap for this task. Do not use plastic as it can cause burning of the plants.

 

Delay any pruning of freeze damaged trees until spring arrives and the amount of damage can be assessed by a certified arborist.

Frequently Asked Questions

Trees that are leaning, have extensive root damage, or show signs of disease or decay are more likely to fall during a storm. If you notice large cracks in the trunk, mushrooms growing at the base, or uneven growth, it’s important to have an arborist inspect the tree. Regular assessments can help identify weak trees that may need removal or additional support. Our arborists can assess the cause of the leaning tree and recommend appropriate actions, such as cabling, bracing, or removal.

It’s best to address storm damage as soon as possible to prevent further risks, such as falling branches or potential damage to buildings. While smaller debris can wait, fallen trees or large branches should be removed promptly for safety. We offer quick response times to help you deal with storm aftermath and restore your property efficiently.

After a storm, we offer professional clean-up services to remove fallen branches, limbs, and other tree debris from your property. We use specialized equipment to safely remove large debris and ensure that your yard is clear and safe. We can also grind stumps and remove any damaged tree sections that may pose a hazard.

Yes, pruning trees before a storm can help minimize the risk of broken branches or falling limbs. Focus on removing dead, diseased, or overextended branches that could cause damage to your home, power lines, or vehicles. Proper pruning also improves airflow and reduces wind resistance, helping your tree withstand stronger winds.

Jimmy’s crew just finished our tree trimming job. We have a 30′ tall Queen’s Crape Myrtle tree that needed a Certified Arborist’s knowledge to do it right and not damage the tree. Everyone’s attitudes, aptitudes, and attention to detail was superb. And we are REALLY thrilled with the quality of job that they provided.
