Situations Calling for Emergency Tree Service
After a severe storm, fallen trees and broken limbs can create dangerous situations. Downed power lines, blocked roads, and trees resting on structures all require immediate professional attention, usually followed by a full storm debris removal pass once the danger is cleared.
A tree that suddenly develops a significant lean after a storm may have compromised roots. This tree could fall at any moment, especially if the ground is saturated from rain, which is exactly when it is time to call in emergency tree services rather than wait it out. Reach our dispatch line and we will get someone out to look at it.
Hanging or partially broken limbs, often called "widow makers" in the tree industry, are extremely dangerous. They can fall without warning and should be removed by professionals as soon as possible, something we see often in Dallastown after a rough season of ice and wind. It is the same pattern behind the surge of storm calls that follows a severe storm.
If a tree has fallen on or near power lines, do not attempt to move it yourself. Call Lewis Burns Tree Service and your utility company immediately for emergency tree removal, or full tree removal once the immediate danger has passed. We coordinate with power companies to safely handle these situations.
