Middle Tennessee's fall storm season can bring fast-moving lines of wind and rain, and when a tree comes down on a house, the next few hours matter. Here is what our emergency storm work looks like from the first call to a cleared roofline.
First comes safety. We ask whether anyone is hurt, whether power lines are involved, and whether the home is still safe to occupy. Lines are always the utility's job first. Once the area is secure, our crew assesses how the tree is resting, because a trunk lying on a roof is often holding tension that can shift the moment a cut is made.
Then we remove the weight in a planned sequence, using rigging and lowering lines so each piece comes off without adding damage. We tarp openings when needed, clean up the debris, and document the work with photos that help with your insurance claim. Because we do not use subcontractors, the same trained crew handles every step.
Has a storm ever brought a tree or big limb down on your property, and what do you wish you had known in the moment?
