Tree Down In Lenoir? Call Now.

A tree on the house, a limb over the driveway, a trunk leaning after a storm. Lenoir is about twenty minutes up US-321 from our yard, and the line is answered 24/7 by a real person — not a machine.

24/7 Emergency Line
When To Call Immediately

Don't Wait On These

If any of these describe your property right now, call rather than fill in a form.

A Tree Or Limb On The House

Weight on a roof keeps working at the structure. The longer it sits, the more of the repair bill is water damage rather than tree work.

A Trunk That Has Started To Lean

A lean that appeared after a storm means the root plate has moved. That tree is no longer holding itself up the way it was.

Anything Touching A Power Line

Call your utility first, then us. We do not touch energised lines, and neither should you — not even to move a branch.

Access Blocked

A trunk across the driveway is an emergency when somebody in the house needs to get out, or an ambulance needs to get in.

Lenoir & Caldwell County

What We Cover Out Here

Twenty Minutes Up US-321

Lenoir is a straight run north from our yard on NC-127 in Hickory. That matters at two in the morning: it is close enough that we can give you an honest arrival time instead of a vague one.

Old Neighbourhoods, Old Trees

The streets off College Avenue and up toward Hibriten were planted a long time ago. Mature oaks and poplars that have stood over a house for sixty years are exactly the trees that come down in a hard wind.

Slopes And Tight Yards

Lenoir sits in the foothills and a lot of its lots are on a grade. Dropping wood downhill toward a house is how damage happens; lifting it out is why we run cranes.

After The Storm Passes

When weather moves through Caldwell County everybody calls at once. Calling early gets you into the order; a form sent overnight does not.

What We Bring

Equipped For The Difficult Ones

Storm work is won or lost on equipment. Ours is why we take the jobs other outfits turn down.

2 Cranes

Wood lifted straight out, over the roof, instead of rigged down piece by piece above the thing you are trying to protect.

2 Grapple Trucks

Storm debris picked up and gone, rather than stacked at the kerb waiting on a second trip.

ISA Certified Arborist

On staff. The call on whether a damaged tree is saveable or has to come out is made by someone qualified to make it.

Our Process

What Happens After You Call

1. A Person Answers

You describe what happened and where. We work out whether this is tonight or tomorrow.

2. We Make The Site Safe

Weight off the structure, access cleared, anything unstable brought down under control.

3. The Wood Goes

Cut, loaded and hauled. We do not leave a pile in the yard unless you ask us to.

4. We Tell You What's Left

Including whether neighbouring trees took damage you cannot see from the ground.

Questions

Emergency Questions We Get

Do you actually come out to Lenoir?

Yes. Caldwell County is in our service area and Lenoir is one of the closer towns in it. Call and we will give you a straight answer on timing rather than a guess.

Will insurance cover this?

Often, when a tree has hit a structure. We are fully insured and can document the work for your claim. We cannot tell you what your policy covers — that is a conversation with your carrier.

What does an emergency call cost?

It depends on size, access and risk, which is why nobody honest quotes storm work sight unseen. You get the price before we start.

Is it an emergency if nothing is damaged yet?

If a tree is leaning over a house or a limb is hanging, yes. Waiting for it to land is how a tree removal turns into a roof replacement.

Not An Emergency?

Request A Free Estimate Instead

If the tree can wait, send us the details and we'll come look — no charge. If it cannot wait, call the 24/7 line rather than filling this in.
