- What should I do if a tree falls on my house?
- First, ensure everyone is safe and evacuate if necessary. Call 911 if anyone is trapped. Do not attempt to remove the tree yourself. Stay away from power lines. Contact your insurance company and then submit an emergency request through Tree Revival to connect with verified contractors immediately.
- How quickly will a contractor respond to my emergency?
- For urgent requests, verified contractors in our network typically respond within 30 minutes during business hours. After hours and during major storms, response times may be 1-2 hours. Same-day requests are usually addressed within 2-4 hours.
- How much does emergency tree removal cost?
- Emergency tree removal costs 30-50% more than standard removal due to urgency and hazardous conditions. Small trees cost $300-$1,000, medium trees $800-$2,500, and large trees $2,000-$10,000+. Use our Cost Estimator for a detailed quote.
- Will my insurance cover emergency tree removal?
- Homeowner's insurance typically covers tree removal if the tree damaged a covered structure (house, garage, fence). If the tree fell without damaging anything, removal is usually not covered. Always document the damage with photos before any work begins.
