Nor'easter season is here, and if a tree ever comes down on your house, the first few hours matter. Here's what the process looks like when our emergency crew responds anywhere in Gloucester County, day or night.
First, everyone stays out of the damaged area and away from any downed wires. If it's safe, take photos of the tree resting on the structure before anything moves, because your insurance company will want them. An estimator is typically on site within one to two hours to see how the tree is resting and what's holding it in place.
Taking a tree off a roof is careful, staged work. Using the knuckle boom crane or bucket truck, the crew lifts it off in sections rather than dragging it, so the damage doesn't get worse on the way down. Once the weight is off, your roofer or contractor can get in to make repairs, and the yard is cleared of limbs and debris.
Have you ever had a tree or big limb land on your house or car during a storm, and how did the cleanup go?

Avoid images that show injuries or distress. Authentic photos from real Greg Smith Tree Service jobs strongly preferred over stock images.
