Storm Damage Tree Service in Maryland

Fallen trees, hanging limbs, and storm-damaged trees require immediate professional attention. Arundel Tree Service provides emergency response throughout Maryland and Delaware.

Storm Damage Services We Provide

Fallen Tree Removal

Trees on your house, car, fence, or blocking your driveway. We remove the tree safely and minimize further damage to your property.

Hanging Limb Removal

Partially broken branches ("widow-makers") hanging in the canopy are extremely dangerous. We remove them before they fall.

Uprooted Tree Removal

Trees that have been uprooted by wind require careful removal to avoid further damage to underground utilities and structures.

Split Tree Removal

Trees that have split at a co-dominant stem or major scaffold branch need immediate attention — the remaining portion is unstable.

Hazard Tree Assessment

After a major storm, trees that look intact may have hidden structural damage. We assess your trees for post-storm hazards.

Debris Cleanup

We chip and haul all storm debris, leaving your property clean and safe after the work is complete.

What to Do After Storm Tree Damage

1

Stay Safe

Keep everyone away from fallen trees and hanging limbs. Do not attempt to move a tree that is on your house — the tree may be supporting the structure. Stay away from downed power lines and call your utility company immediately.

2

Document the Damage

Before any cleanup, photograph everything from multiple angles. Your insurance company will need documentation. Note the date and time of the storm. Do not discard any debris until your adjuster has seen it.

3

Call Your Insurance Company

Report the claim as soon as possible. Ask specifically what your policy covers for tree removal and structural damage. Get a claim number before work begins.

4

Call a Licensed Tree Expert

Contact a Maryland Licensed Tree Expert for emergency assessment and removal. Verify they are licensed and insured before any work begins — storm season brings unlicensed operators who disappear after taking payment.

5

Secure the Property

If a tree has damaged your roof or walls, temporary tarping may be needed to prevent further water damage. We can coordinate with your contractor or help identify emergency tarping services.
