Storm damage tree removal in Arcadia and across the San Gabriel Valley is what Empire Tree Care does for a tree or limb that a storm has split or brought down and that has to come out. That sets it apart from planned tree removal, where you pick the day and the tree has been standing fine. After a storm the tree may be leaning on a fence or lying across a driveway, and the plan changes with it. Call or text (626) 493-7629.
The call is the first step. Describe what came down and what it is resting on, and a day and time get set for the estimate. If the tree is already flat on the ground, fallen tree removal covers that side of it, and storm work often starts with exactly that scene. A plain description of what is down is enough to get the visit on the calendar.
Storms bring wind and rain together, and the weather that knocked the tree over may still be overhead when you call. The price is set before the work starts, and the minimum is $500. The lines are open Monday through Saturday, 6 AM to 9 PM. Same day happens sometimes, but it is never a promise, so ask when you call.

What counts as storm damage tree removal?
Storm damage tree removal is taking down a tree, or the part of one, that a storm has broken or knocked over. The tree may still be standing with a cracked trunk or a heavy limb hung up in the canopy. It may be on the ground with its roots in the air. Either way, the reason to call is the same: you can't leave it where it is.
This page is for damage a storm just did, when the tree's condition changed overnight and the plan changed with it. A tree that has been dead for months has its own page, dead tree removal, and so does one that simply leans, dangerous tree removal.
Do they work on a storm job in the rain?
No, with one exception. They don't take jobs in the rain, except for branches that have come down on a house or a car and make it an emergency.
That exception covers branches on a house or car and nothing else. A tree across a driveway, or a trunk split in your yard with nothing on the roof, falls under the rain rule like any other storm job.
If branches are on your house or car, the call is an emergency one, and emergency tree service has its own page. Sunday is closed, and nothing is promised for that day.
How does a storm damage tree removal job go?
A phone call sets it up. You describe what came down, and the call ends with a day and an hour for the estimate. They look at the tree where it sits and give you the price. Once you agree, the work gets done and the job is walked through with you. Then you get the invoice.
Clean, safe work is guaranteed. A text comes when they are on the way.
It is the same order the owner gives for every job: a phone call, a date and time for the estimate, the job, the walk-through, then the invoice.
How much does storm damage tree removal cost?
The minimum is $500. Call or text (626) 493-7629 and describe what is down. Quotes come from a conversation and a look at the job, so say what the tree is resting on, and what it has done to anything near it.
The owner's promise is that the price quoted is the price you pay, so the number you are given before the work starts is the number on the invoice and does not move once the job begins. You can pay by cash, a check, Zelle or a card. For how pricing works across jobs, see how tree work is priced in Arcadia.
What kinds of storm damage lead to a removal call?
Storms break trees in a few ways. A trunk can split or crack. A big limb can tear off and fall, or stay hung up in the canopy. A whole tree can go over with its roots lifted out of the ground. A smaller tree can lean after wind loosens the soil around it.
Each of those can lead to a call, and the plainest thing you can do is say which one you have. A limb that has fallen is one description. A limb that is still up there, hanging, is another. A tree that is down is a third. The name you use does not have to be the trade's name, only what you see.
How is storm damage removal different from fallen or dead tree removal?
Fallen tree removal covers a tree that is already on the ground, whatever put it there. Dead tree removal covers a tree that has died. Storm damage tree removal is named for the cause: a storm did the damage, and the tree or limb has to come out because of it.
One tree can fit more than one name. A dead tree that a storm finally brought down is both, so read the pages that apply and use whichever name you like on the call. What matters is that you say what you see.
