We are different
Experience means we don’t just see a disaster; we see the path forward. When a storm rearranges your landscape, it can be devastating, but it also presents a unique chance to reimagine your property.
We help you pivot from damage control to strategic enhancement. Clearing fallen timber might reveal a breathtaking new lake view, open space for a food plot, or allow for a healthier, more resilient forest floor. Let us turn this unfortunate disruption into an opportunity to cultivate the property you’ve always wanted, leaving your land better than we found it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you help if a tree is leaning but hasn’t fallen yet?
Yes. Trees that are partially uprooted or leaning (“hangers”) are often more dangerous than those already on the ground. With 35+ years of experience, we can safely stabilize or remove hazardous trees before they cause structural damage. Proactive removal is often cheaper than the potential aftermath.
Will your equipment damage my lawn?
We pride ourselves on being precise and nimble. Unlike companies that use heavy, industrial-sized excavators that can tear up turf and compact the soil, we use specialized, low-impact machinery. Our equipment is designed to navigate residential properties with a minimal footprint, allowing us to remove massive fallen timber without leaving your yard in need of a secondary restoration.
Is Storm Cleanup covered by insurance?
Typically, homeowners insurance covers tree removal if a tree has fallen on a covered structure (like your home, garage, or fence) due to a storm. Most policies also include a “debris removal” allowance.
What do you do with all the wood and debris?
Depending on your goals, we can haul all debris away, or we can utilize more creative solutions to help ensure a sustainable and economic use of the wood – like mulching, turning it into firewood, and other alternatives.
