Storm-Damaged Tree Removal

Ottawa storm damage can be severe, and while mature trees are resilient by nature, extreme weather can cause irreparable structural failure. In these cases, professional emergency tree removal or storm damage cleanup is necessary to protect your property. After a significant weather event in the Ottawa Valley, your trees may require an immediate hazardous tree assessment to ensure they do not pose a risk to your home or power lines.

To ensure the safety of your landscape, be on the lookout for these critical signs of storm damage:

  • Large, deep cracks in tree trunks or main stems
  • Uprooted trees or soil heaving at the base
  • Hanging or broken branches caught in the canopy
  • Fallen trees leaning against structures or other trees

If you have noticed these signs of tree damage on your property, you should call Croft Tree Experts today. Damaged trees can be unpredictable and dangerous; if a tree poses a safety risk, it must be addressed immediately by a certified arborist.

Our expert arborists will consult with you to decide the best course of action for recovery. Depending on the extent of the impact, it may be possible to preserve your storm damaged trees through structural pruning or cabling. In cases where the damage is more severe and the tree creates a liability, professional removal is the safest option. Whether you need to save a damaged tree or require a complete tree storm damage cleanup service, trust Ottawa’s leading experts to handle the job safely and efficiently.

Why get an arborist to help clean up storm damage?

First and foremost, getting an arborist to help you remove storm damage is easier, faster, more effective, and less stressful than taking on the task yourself. After a particularly strong storm you might have a fallen tree to handle large branches scattered throughout your property. If a tree has fallen near your home, car, or shed we can perform emergency tree removal while minimizing damage to your property. Removing a fallen tree on your own is difficult, time consuming, and dangerous.

When our arborists are there to help you clean up your storm damage,they are also able to examine the rest of your property to check that you don’t have any other potential tree hazards that you might have missed. Sometimes after a storm trees are significantly weakened and pose a risk, however the signs are not always visible.

If the storm-damaged tree or trees on your property do not pose a risk towards the people or property surrounding it, Croft Tree Experts’ arborists can help repair it allowing for the best possible recovery. Our arborists can prune dead limbs as well as brace and cable your storm-damaged tree to help ensure that your tree recovers and can survive the next strong storm that rolls through. On top of making the cleanup process easier, hiring an expert arborist is the best way to ensure you get the best possible care for your trees. If you suspect a storm has damaged trees on your property, contact Croft Tree Experts now. We can help.
