Emergency Storm Work, in practice
A tree on a structure is a rigging problem rather than a cutting problem. Weight has to come off in a controlled order so the load on the building does not shift, and that is slower and more deliberate than it looks from the ground.
Middle Tennessee gets two reliable seasons for this work: spring and early summer straight-line wind events, and the occasional winter ice storm heavy enough to bring limbs down across whole neighborhoods. Both find the trees that already had a weakness.

Emerald Ash Borer and the Ash Trees in Your Yard

Why Topping a Tree Is the Wrong Fix
A topped tree looks smaller for one season and then grows back weaker than it was. It is the most common bad pruning job in Nashville and one of the easiest to refuse.

FAQ
Emergency Storm Work — questions
A tree fell on my house — what do I do first?
Get everyone out if the structure is damaged, and call your insurer and us. Do not go on the roof and do not try to move the tree; a tree resting on a house is under tension and can shift. We remove it in pieces, tarp the roof, and photograph everything for the claim. Insurance generally covers removal from a structure and the damage; it may not cover a tree that fell in the yard and hit nothing.
How quickly can you get to storm damage?
Trees on houses, cars and driveways come first, usually the same day, and after a major storm the order is triage — a tree through a roof before a tree across a lawn. A tree that fell and hit nothing is scheduled after the emergencies. We say honestly where you are in the queue.
