Storm Cleanup & Debris Removal

What Storm Cleanup Involves

Storm damage varies from minor branch litter to catastrophic tree failures. Our cleanup services scale to match the severity of damage on your property. We start by assessing all damage and identifying safety hazards like hanging branches, leaning trees, or debris near power lines. Safety comes first, so we secure dangerous areas before beginning cleanup work.

Our comprehensive storm cleanup services include:

• •Removing fallen trees and large branches from yards, driveways, and structures
• •Cutting and removing hanging or broken branches that could fall
• •Clearing blocked driveways and access roads to restore property access
• •Grinding stumps from uprooted or broken trees
• •Collecting and hauling away all storm debris, branches, leaves, and wood
• •Assessing remaining trees for damage and stability issues

We work with homeowners, businesses, and property managers throughout Davis to restore properties after weather events. Our team responds quickly because we know storm damage cannot wait. If you need immediate help with dangerous trees or branches, contact us right away for emergency response.

Common Storm Damage in Davis

Different types of storms create different damage patterns. Understanding what to expect helps you spot problems and know when to call for professional help.

Wind Damage

Strong winds break weak branches, twist limbs, and can even topple entire trees if the soil is saturated. Trees with poor structure or existing weaknesses are most vulnerable. After windstorms, check your trees carefully for cracked branches, splits in the trunk, or trees leaning at new angles. These problems require immediate attention from our emergency tree removal team.

Heavy Rain and Flooding

Saturated soil loses its ability to anchor tree roots. Even healthy trees can lean or fall when soil becomes waterlogged during heavy rain. If you notice trees listing after storms, do not wait. The tree could fall completely at any time. Uprooted trees leave large holes and expose root systems that need professional removal and site restoration.

Lightning Strikes

Lightning can shatter trees, strip bark, or kill them outright. Lightning-damaged trees are extremely dangerous and unpredictable. The internal damage may not be visible from the ground, but the tree's structure is compromised. We have experience safely removing lightning-struck trees and can assess whether damaged trees can be saved or must be removed.

Our Storm Cleanup Process

When you call us after a storm, we prioritize getting to your property quickly. We understand that storm damage causes stress and disrupts your daily life. Our crew arrives with all necessary equipment including chainsaws, chippers, stump grinders, and trucks for hauling debris.

We start by handling any immediate safety hazards. This might mean removing trees from roofs, clearing driveways so you can access your home, or dealing with branches hanging precariously overhead. Once immediate dangers are addressed, we systematically clean up all storm debris. We cut large pieces into manageable sections, chip branches, and haul everything away. If stumps need grinding, we can handle that during the same visit.

Before we finish, we inspect your remaining trees for damage you might have missed. We point out problems like cracked limbs, exposed roots, or structural issues that storm stress revealed. If you need ongoing tree care after the immediate cleanup, our tree trimming and pruning services can help restore damaged trees and improve their resistance to future storms.
