About Our 24/7 Emergency Tree Removal

Emergency tree removal is the urgent removal of a tree or large limb that has fallen, or is about to fail, and is threatening people, a building, a vehicle or access to a property. In Denver, many calls follow heavy, wet spring and fall snow, when branches still in leaf collect snow and snap, and high winds.

Our certified crew handles complex removals near structures, fences and utility lines, using cranes and rigging where a tree cannot be cut safely from the ground. If a tree or limb is on a power line, stay well away, treat every line as live and report it to Xcel Energy on 1-800-895-1999 before anyone touches the tree. For non-urgent work, see our standard tree removal service.

How Emergency Tree Removal Works

1. Emergency Assessment

Our team assesses the tree on site, checks the risk to people, buildings and utility lines, answers your questions and sets out the safest way to remove it.

2. Removal Plan

No two emergencies are alike. The plan covers safety measures, nearby structures and your timing, so the most urgent hazards are dealt with first.

3. Safe Tree Removal

Using cranes, rigging and proven methods, the crew lifts or lowers the tree in sections to avoid further damage to your property.

4. Cleanup and Stump Grinding

We remove the debris, provide stump grinding and level the area, so the yard is tidy and ready for repairs or replanting.

Why Fast Removal Matters After Tree Damage

Removes the Immediate Danger

Taking down a split, leaning or hanging tree removes the risk of it falling on people, vehicles or buildings.

Limits Further Damage

A tree resting on a roof keeps doing damage as it shifts and as rain or snow gets in. Controlled removal protects the building, nearby gardens and utility lines from more harm.

Restores Access

Clearing a fallen tree reopens driveways, walkways and entrances so vehicles and repair crews can get in.

Prevents Later Failures

Storm-damaged trees can have cracked or hanging limbs that fail days later. Removing them, or pruning the tree back to sound wood, heads off a second emergency.

Emergency Tree Removal Across Denver Neighborhoods

We provide emergency tree removal throughout the City and County of Denver, including Cherry Creek and the neighborhoods below, 24 hours a day. Here is what a tree emergency usually looks like in each area.

Capitol Hill

Fallen limbs land on cars, alleys and wires where everything is close together. Report any line to Xcel Energy before the tree is touched. See who to call for a tree on a power line.

Congress Park

Dead ash turns brittle and drops limbs without warning. A failing ash over a house should not wait.

Washington Park

Mature trees stand over roofs, so a broken limb often ends up on a building and has to be lifted off in sections.

Park Hill

Large canopies take the worst of wet spring and fall snow. Split trunks and hanging limbs are the usual emergencies.

Highland

Tight streets and new construction limit access, so getting equipment to a fallen tree takes planning.

Central Park

Younger trees fail less often, but early snow on trees in full leaf still snaps branches onto driveways and fences.

Emergency Tree Removal FAQs

A tree emergency is any tree or large limb that has fallen on, or is about to fall on, a house, vehicle, power line, road or walkway. Warning signs of imminent failure include a freshly split trunk, a sudden lean, lifting soil at the base and large broken limbs hanging in the canopy.

  1. Get everyone out of the affected rooms and stay clear of the tree.
  2. If anyone is hurt, there is a fire, or wires are down, call 911.
  3. If power lines are involved, report it to Xcel Energy on 1-800-895-1999.
  4. Take photos of the damage for your insurer.
  5. Call (720) 383-6040 for emergency tree removal.

Many homeowners policies pay for removal when a tree falls on an insured structure such as a house, garage or fence, but cover and limits vary by policy. Photograph the damage before work starts, keep your estimate and invoice, and check with your insurer what is covered. See does homeowners insurance cover tree removal? If the tree came from next door, see a neighbor’s tree fell on your property: who pays?

Trees in the public right-of-way, usually the strip between the sidewalk and the street, are regulated by Denver’s Office of the City Forester, and removing one normally requires a free permit. If a right-of-way tree has failed or is an immediate hazard, contact that office about how to proceed. We can help you work out which rules apply to your tree.

Emergency removal usually costs more than scheduled removal, because the work is urgent, often happens outside normal hours and can need a crane or extra rigging to lift a tree off a structure. The price depends on the tree’s size, where it has landed and how hard it is to reach. We give you a clear estimate with no hidden charges. For typical figures, see emergency tree removal cost in Denver.

Yes. Our certified arborists use specialized tools and protocols to remove trees in confined or dangerous spots, including on and next to structures and near power lines.
