Questions Homeowners Ask
What counts as a tree emergency?
A tree on a structure, blocked essential access, major hanging limb, active failure, or contact with utilities may require urgent attention.
What information should I send?
Share the address area, photos from a safe distance, what is damaged or blocked, and whether utility lines are involved.
Can work begin during severe weather?
Conditions must be safe for crews and equipment. Temporary hazard control or delayed work may be necessary during active high winds, lightning, or flooding.
Need an Estimate?
Tell us what is happening, where the tree is located, and whether structures or access are affected. We will route your request to a local service provider for follow-up.
Information to Share During a Tree Emergency
Fast, accurate details help determine what kind of response may be appropriate. State whether a tree or limb has struck a structure, blocked the only driveway, created a hanging hazard, or come into contact with a utility line. Include the property location, safe access points, photos taken from a distance, and whether emergency responders or the utility have already been contacted.
Do not enter an unstable work area
Keep people and vehicles away from suspended limbs, split trunks, uprooted trees, and leaning trees that changed position during a storm. Never touch a tree, limb, fence, or vehicle that may be energized by a power line. Contact 911 for an immediate threat to life and the utility for electrical hazards before arranging tree work.
If the danger has passed and the remaining need is debris removal, review storm cleanup options. You can also learn the signs a storm-damaged tree may be unsafe or request planned tree removal. See the Lake Charles-area coverage guide.
