Why Call Carolina's Elite After a Storm
Ben D. called us after ice storm damage. He wrote that we "came the next day after we called to give the estimate, then returned the following day to do the work, which was excellent in every respect." He also said our cleanup was "the best and most conscientious we have ever seen."
Charles C. had a tree hanging across his yard and his neighbor's wooden fence. We cut and removed it, and he noted we also replaced two of the neighbor's broken fence planks. We are licensed and insured, so you are covered while we work on your property.
What Affects the Cost of Storm Cleanup
Storm work is priced on site because every fallen tree lands a little differently.
- Where it landed
- A tree on a roof takes careful cutting and lifting. A tree across open lawn is quicker.
- Tension in the wood
- Bent and twisted trunks hold stored energy. They must be cut slowly and in the right order.
- Size and amount
- More trees and bigger trunks mean more cutting and more loads to haul.
- Hanging limbs
- Broken limbs stuck high in the tree need a climber to bring them down safely.
- Haul-off or firewood
- Leaving cut logs on site costs less than hauling everything away.
Storm Season in Greensboro and the Triad
Greensboro gets hit from a few directions. Summer thunderstorms bring straight-line winds that snap tops out of pines. Winter ice storms coat branches until they break under the weight. And the remnants of tropical storms can soak the red clay so deep that whole trees tip over, roots and all.
Big pines and old oaks close to houses cause most of the damage we see. After a storm, look for fresh cracks in the trunk, limbs hanging by a strip of bark, and soil lifted on one side of the base. If you see any of those, keep people out from under the tree and give us a call.
Before the next storm season, a trim to take weight off long limbs over the roof, or the removal of a dead tree, can prevent the emergency call altogether.
What Customers Say About Our Storm Cleanup
Read all 26 reviews“We needed some removal and pruning after suffering some ice storm damage. They came the next day after we called to give the estimate, then returned the following day to do the work, which was excellent in every respect. Both times they arrived promptly exactly when they said they would be here... Their clean up of our yard after they finished was the best and most conscientious we have ever seen.”
“Mark and his Team cut down a Tree that was hanging across my yard and neighbor's wooded fences. They cut and removed and also they replaced two of the neighbor broken planks on the fence. Excellent Job.”
“They did a great job removing some limbs from a tree that were hanging over our home. They were friendly and professional, and we appreciated their service.”
Storm Cleanup Questions
Do you do emergency tree removal?
Yes. Our Google Business Profile lists us as open 24 hours, 7 days. Call (336) 309-1094 when a tree is on your house or blocking your driveway.
Will my homeowners insurance pay for this?
Often it does when a tree damages your house or another covered structure. Your insurance company makes that call. Take photos of the damage before cleanup starts, and ask us for the price in writing to send them.
A tree is on a power line. Can you remove it?
Stay away from the tree and call Duke Energy first. Once the power company makes the line safe, we can remove the tree and clean up.
Can you remove a tree that fell from my neighbor's yard?
Yes. We work with whoever is paying for the job. It helps to talk with your neighbor and your insurance company first about who covers it.
