Hurricane Season: Who to Call in a Tree Emergency
Hurricane season in North Carolina can bring powerful winds, heavy rains, and unexpected damage to your property. One of the most common, and potentially dangerous, issues is tree damage. When a tree falls or a loose limb hangs precariously over your home, vehicle, or power lines, knowing who to call can make all the difference.
Why You Should Never Handle Fallen Trees Yourself
It’s important to resist the urge to handle fallen or unstable trees. Even small branches can be under tension, snap suddenly, or shift unpredictably, creating serious risk. Calling trained professionals ensures the job is done safely, with no shortcuts or surprises.
In fact, research shows that while up to 76% of trees sustain some level of damage during hurricanes, only about 10% actually die within nine months. That means many weakened trees remain standing but unstable—posing hidden dangers long after the storm has passed. What looks like a “survivor” tree could still fail without warning, which is why professional evaluation and removal are critical.
When tending to tree damage after a storm, timing is critical. The longer a damaged tree remains, the greater the risk to your property and safety. At All Pro Tree & Crane, we are on call 24/7 for emergency tree services and respond as soon as conditions are safe, helping to stabilize or remove threats before the situation intensifies.
