Emergency Tree Removal When You Need It Most

Severe weather on the upper Texas coast can turn a healthy-looking tree into an emergency in minutes. Hurricanes, tropical storms and strong thunderstorms snap limbs, split trunks and uproot trees onto roofs, cars, fences and power lines. Root Branch 'N' All offers 24/7 emergency tree services to handle urgent situations and keep your home and family safe.

A tree that has already failed is one of the most dangerous things to work on. It is often under tension, resting on something it could damage further, and unpredictable when cut. Our crew is arborist-trained and safety-trained by a professional instructor, and we are OSHA-trained. We take the time to remove it without causing more damage.

What to Do Right After a Tree Falls

  1. Get everyone to safety. If a tree hit the house, move people and pets out of the affected rooms.
  2. Stay away from power lines. Assume any line touching a tree or lying on the ground is live. Keep everyone back and report it to your electric utility right away.
  3. Don't climb on the tree or the roof. Fallen trees can shift, roll or drop limbs without warning.
  4. Take photos. Photograph the tree and any damage from a safe distance before anything is moved. Your insurance company will want them.
  5. Call us at (281) 337-4783. Tell us what happened and where the tree is resting, and we will get you on the schedule.
  6. Contact your insurance company. Let them know about the damage to the home or other structures.

Emergency Tree Services We Provide

  • Trees on houses and roofs. Careful, piece-by-piece removal so the roof and fence are not damaged further.
  • Trees on cars, fences and outbuildings. Lifting and cutting the load off without dropping it.
  • Blocked driveways and streets. Clearing access so you can get in and out.
  • Split, hanging and broken limbs. Removing "widowmakers" still caught up in the canopy.
  • Uprooted and leaning trees. Taking down trees that are now unstable after the storm.
  • Storm debris cleanup. Chipping the brush and hauling away the wood with our brush chipping service.

When a Tree Falls on Your House

This is the call nobody wants to make. One of our customers described exactly that situation: "We had a tree fall on our house. John came out that same day and got me on the schedule to next day. Removing the tree was extremely tricky. If done wrong the roof and fence could be damaged even more... He took his time and did no further damage!"

That is the approach on every emergency job. We assess how the tree is resting, then remove it in controlled sections, using rigging and our 60 ft bucket truck where it helps, so the weight comes off your home without new damage.

Hurricane Season: The Best Emergency Is the One That Doesn't Happen

We maintain the capacity to mobilize quickly after tropical weather, but the smartest move is to deal with weak trees before the storm. Before hurricane season, have us:

  • Thin heavy canopies to reduce wind load with proper tree trimming and pruning
  • Remove dead, cracked and overextended limbs over the house
  • Check trees that are leaning, decaying or have damaged roots
  • Take down trees that are too far gone with safe tree removal

Emergency Tree Service FAQ

Do You Really Offer 24/7 Emergency Tree Service?

Yes. Our regular office hours are Monday through Saturday, but emergency storm service is available 24/7. Call (281) 337-4783.

Should I Try to Cut the Tree Off My Roof Myself?

No. A fallen tree is often under tension and can shift or spring when cut, causing injury and more damage. Stay off the roof and away from the tree, and call a professional.

What If the Tree Is on a Power Line?

Stay away and treat the line as live. Call your electric utility first to report it, then call us about the tree.

Will Insurance Pay for Emergency Tree Removal?

It depends on your policy and what the tree damaged. Coverage often applies when a tree damages a covered structure. Take photos and contact your insurance company to confirm.

Do You Clean Up After Storm Damage?

Yes. We chip brush on site and haul away the wood, leaving the area safe and clear.

Can You Help Before a Hurricane?

Yes. Pre-storm trimming and removal of weak or dying trees is one of the best ways to reduce storm damage. Call before the season heats up.
