Stop Storm Damage Before It Spreads

Emergency Tree Services in Pittsburgh for fallen trees, broken limbs, or trees threatening structures after storms

Triple T Tree Care responds to emergency tree situations across Pittsburgh 24 hours a day using bucket trucks, chainsaws, and rigging equipment to remove fallen trees, stabilize broken limbs, and eliminate hazards created by severe weather. You're looking at a tree that split during a windstorm and landed on your roof, heavy branches blocking your driveway, or a leaning tree that could fall at any moment, and you need immediate help to prevent further property damage or injury.

Our emergency response process starts with a phone assessment to determine the severity of the situation and dispatch a crew to your property. We secure the area, remove immediate hazards, and stabilize trees or structures at risk of further damage. Each emergency service includes removing fallen wood from buildings or vehicles, clearing access routes, and making temporary repairs that protect your property until permanent work can be scheduled.

Call Triple T Tree Care immediately if you're facing an emergency tree situation in Pittsburgh and need urgent assistance.

How We Handle Emergency Tree Situations

You'll see our crew arrive with equipment ready to address the most critical hazards first, which means removing trees from roofs before they cause additional structural damage, clearing fallen trunks that block emergency vehicle access, or cutting away limbs hanging precariously over power lines. Pittsburgh's storms can topple mature trees weakened by saturated soil, high winds, or heavy ice accumulation, and our experience with local weather patterns helps us assess which trees need immediate attention versus which can wait for daylight or better conditions.

After we secure the scene, you'll notice the eliminated risk of collapse, the cleared pathways allowing normal access to your property, and the removed debris that was blocking gutters or crushing landscaping. If the tree damaged your roof or siding, we'll tarp exposed areas to prevent water intrusion until roofing contractors can make permanent repairs.

We do not work near active power lines or downed electrical wires, as those situations require utility company response before tree removal can begin safely. If your emergency involves electrical hazards, we'll coordinate with the power company and return once lines are de-energized or cleared from the work area. For exceptionally large trees over 80 feet that require specialized crane equipment, we can schedule our Large Tree Removal service once the immediate emergency is stabilized.

What Property Owners Need to Know During Emergencies

Emergency tree situations create stress and uncertainty about response times, costs, and what happens next, so these questions address the immediate concerns property owners have during urgent situations.

How quickly can you respond to an emergency call in Pittsburgh?
We prioritize emergency calls and typically arrive within one to three hours depending on the severity of the situation, weather conditions, and our current call volume. We dispatch the closest available crew to minimize response time.
What should I do while waiting for your crew to arrive?
Stay away from damaged trees and fallen limbs that could shift or collapse. If a tree is touching power lines, keep everyone at least 30 feet away and call your utility company immediately. Move vehicles and valuables out of the danger zone if it's safe to do so.
How much do emergency tree services cost?
Emergency service includes premium rates due to 24-hour availability, urgent response, and off-hours work, but we provide upfront pricing before starting any work. You'll receive a verbal estimate on-site and a written quote for any follow-up work needed.
Will you remove the entire tree during an emergency call?
We remove enough of the tree to eliminate immediate hazards and prevent further damage. If complete removal requires additional equipment or daylight conditions, we'll stabilize the situation and schedule a return visit to finish the job safely.
Do you work during active storms?
We monitor weather conditions closely and respond once it's safe for our crews to work. High winds, lightning, or heavy rain create dangerous conditions that prevent safe tree work. We'll dispatch as soon as conditions improve and keep you informed of our estimated arrival.
