Unfortunately, tree-related problems don’t always occur during typical business hours. You may walk outside one night and notice a large branch hanging from a tree right above your driveway, or see that one of the trees in your backyard has started leaning suddenly. You may even wake up one night to the horrific sound of a tree crashing through your roof.
But no matter the hour or day of the week when these things occur, one thing is certain: You need the services of a professional arborist, and you need them fast. Fortunately, residents and businesses in the Clinton Township area don’t have to search far and wide for help in these situations; they can simply call Treemendous Tree Care – southeast Michigan’s leading provider of emergency tree services.
It’s always important to rely on a reputable tree-service provider for routine pruning, plant health care, and scheduled tree removals. Pound for pound, your trees are one of your most valuable assets, and you don’t want to trust them to just anyone riding around with a pickup truck and a chainsaw.
But it is absolutely critical that you work with experienced professionals anytime you need emergency tree removals or services. Emergency tree service is not only crucial for the safety of any people in the vicinity, but also for any homes, commercial buildings, or other types of property in the area.
That’s exactly what you get when you trust the professional arborists at Treemendous Tree Care. Contact us today and see why we’ve become southeast Michigan’s choice for emergency tree service.
While we provide a variety of different services for people who need emergency tree care, the following are a few of the most common services our clients need.
Trees that are dead, dying, unstable, or in the process of failing often present an imminent risk, which puts people and property at risk. But we can quickly, safely, and efficiently remove these trees to help mitigate these risks and prevent potentially catastrophic consequences.
While whole-tree failure is one of the things people worry about most, individual tree branches can also represent a hazard. In these cases, we’ll use a bucket truck, aerial lift, or a human climber to remove the branches that pose a threat and properly prune the tree to promote lasting health.
Unfortunately, trees can occasionally fall without providing any warning at all. When this happens, it is important to have the tree removed immediately — especially if it has fallen on a home or structure. We perform this kind of work by hand when the tree is small or leverage cranes and other heavy machinery to remove very large trees that have fallen on structures.
Often, homeowners notice something troubling about their tree and want to have it assessed by professional arborists, who can determine if the tree presents a hazard or not. That’s exactly what the arborists at Treemendous Tree Care can do by visiting your location. We’ll analyze the tree, assess its relative risk profile, and provide you with a recommended plan of attack.
Storms can wreak havoc on your trees, leaving limbs, fruit, and foliage strewn across your property. Far more than a cosmetic issue, this type of debris can attract pests, spread diseases to other trees, and represent trip hazards. But our tree-care professionals can help clean up your property and eliminate these kinds of risks.
When trees or limbs fall near structures or across driveways and sidewalks, they can cut off access to portions of your property. In a worst-case scenario, they may even block access for first-responders or leave you trapped and unable to leave. But we can quickly help in these situations, by removing these kinds of obstructions and the associated debris.
The importance of emergency tree care may be obvious in some cases, but many homeowners and property managers fail to see all of the reasons it is important to secure these kinds of services promptly. Here are a few of the reasons you’ll always want to contact Treemendous Tree Care for emergency tree services at the first sign of trouble:
The most important single benefit that emergency tree care provides is safety — it prevents the people around you from suffering injuries or worse. That’s the most compelling reason to contact Treemendous Tree Care at the first sign of trouble. Our crews can address the problems with your trees and keep the people close to you safe.
While people may be the most important thing in the world, your property is also important. Property damage can not only be expensive to repair, but it may render your home or office space unusable for quite some time. But by dealing with these issues proactively, you can help prevent these kinds of situations from occurring.
In the unfortunate event that a tree (or large branch) falls on your home or commercial space, you’ll likely be facing expensive repairs. But you can help keep these costs as low as possible by having the tree or branch removed promptly, so that you can cover the structure and prevent further damage.
Whether large or small, tree debris can sometimes prevent you from accessing different portions of your property. In some cases, this may only be an inconvenience, but in other cases, it could represent a serious problem. But our crews can quickly deal with the tree-related debris that’s blocking your access and ensure that you can reach all portions of your property.
Fallen trees and debris can conceivably prevent first responders (ranging from fire department personnel to utility specialists) from being able to access your property and perform the work you need them to do. But when you allow us to help with your storm damage cleanup and emergency tree removal service, you’ll ensure that these important professionals can reach your location.
Did you know that your insurance company may deny your claim if you don’t do everything possible to protect your home following a tree-related emergency? But by contacting the professionals at Treemendous tree care, you’ll be showing the provider that you acted in good faith and took all of the reasonable steps you could to mitigate the damage.
There are a variety of services that residents and property managers may need that fall under the “emergency” umbrella. In fact, we always recommend erring on the side of caution, meaning that if you suspect a tree problem may be an emergency, go ahead and treat it as such and call us immediately.
Nevertheless, the following signs are all indicative of an emergency and should prompt you to contact us immediately.
While not all cracks indicate the potential for imminent failure, they should always be assessed by a professional arborist.
Large branches can be surprisingly heavy and cause significant injuries or property damage when they inevitably fall.
Branches that have broken off yet remain stuck in a tree are especially dangerous, as they may fall in only a gentle breeze.
Mushrooms are often indicative of advanced decay, which can mean that the tree’s structural stability has been compromised.
Mounding soil often indicates that a tree’s root system is failing, or the soil structure is unstable — both of which are cause for concern.
While some trees naturally exhibit a slight lean, you should always consider a sudden change in a tree’s angle to be an emergency.
One of the greatest predictors of future limb drop or complete tree failure is prior limb drop, so have a professional assess any trees that have shed limbs.
This is the term arborists use to describe “twin” trees. They’re troubling because these unions are very weak and prone to splitting.
Large cavities are often associated with decay, which may extend all the way through a tree, putting the tree at high risk of failure.

The term “emergency tree removal” can refer to a few different things. Some people use it to describe the removal of a standing tree that is in imminent danger of falling, while others use the term to describe trees that have already fallen on structures or property and are presenting a hazardous condition. The costs associated with removing standing hazardous trees vary but generally fall in the $500 to $2,500 ballpark, unless the tree is very large. In these cases, cranes may be necessary, which may raise the price to the $5,000 to $7,000 range. Removing trees that have already fallen is generally in the $500 to $2,000 for small and medium sized trees, but large trees that’ll require a crane to remove will likely cost $5,000 or more.
While there’s no concrete definition for “tree emergency,” we consider any scenario involving a tree that presents a hazard to people or property to be an emergency. This includes everything from a tree with a large, hanging branch over a driveway to a tree that’s actually fallen on your home or business.
Ironically, most homeowner’s insurance policies will not pay to have a tree removed to prevent damage, but they will pay (a portion of the costs) to have a tree removed after it has fallen on your property. However, every insurance policy and provider is different, and you’ll have to contact your insurance agent to be certain.
Because fallen trees may have disrupted power lines, electrical wiring, or natural gas lines, it is always important to contact 911 in these situations. Then, once first responders and emergency crews have ensured that the people in the area are safe, contact Treemendous Tree Care and arrange for a site visit.
Given the number of variables involved, it is difficult to make generalizations about whether it’s cheaper to trim a tree or remove it entirely. Typically, trimming will be more affordable, but in some cases — such as an overgrown tree that hasn’t been pruned in many years — the reverse may be true. Ultimately, you’ll simply need to schedule your free estimate and discuss it with a Treemendous Tree Care arborist.
A number of different things can be considered emergency tree removal, but the phrase generally refers to the removal of a standing tree that is presenting a safety hazard or the removal of a fallen tree, which has damaged property, injured people, or presents some type of other hazard.
