A fallen tree is stressful. Here's what to do while you wait for the crew to arrive:
If a tree or large limb has fallen, do not attempt to move it yourself. Downed trees can shift unpredictably, and any tree near power lines should be treated as live until the utility company confirms otherwise.
Emergency calls are answered and dispatched across Lancaster County. Describe the situation and a local professional will give you an honest ETA.
Before we start work, photograph the damage from a safe distance. Most homeowner insurance policies cover emergency tree removal when a tree falls on a structure. We can provide written documentation for your claim.
Keep children and pets away from the area. If there's any structural damage to your home, avoid the affected rooms until a licensed professional has assessed the situation.
Lancaster County experiences significant tree damage during nor'easters (October–April), summer thunderstorms (June–September), and periodic ice storms. The mature tree canopy throughout Manheim Township, Lititz, and the Lancaster City neighborhoods means storm season reliably generates emergency calls.
Ice storms deserve particular attention for Lancaster County homeowners. Bradford pears — planted throughout the county's suburban developments in the 1980s and 1990s — split catastrophically under ice load due to their narrow, included-bark branch structure. A single ice event can generate dozens of emergency calls from communities along the Route 30 corridor, Elizabethtown, and Ephrata alone. Silver maples, common throughout Manheim Township's post-war neighborhoods, are the second most frequent ice storm failure.
Summer thunderstorms bring a different risk: saturated soil combined with full leaf canopy creates conditions for complete tree uprooting. Lancaster County's clay-heavy soils hold moisture particularly well, meaning a tree that survived the storm event itself may uproot in the lighter winds the following day when soil remains fully saturated. Checking your yard the morning after a significant thunderstorm — particularly around large silver maples and willows — is worthwhile before resuming normal outdoor activity.
When you call for emergency tree service in Lancaster County, describe the situation clearly: whether the tree or limb is on a structure, near power lines, or blocking access. This information determines dispatch priority and what equipment is needed. If power lines are involved, the utility (PPL Electric at 1-800-342-5775) must be contacted first — tree professionals do not handle energized lines.
Before the crew arrives: document damage with photos for insurance purposes, keep family and pets away from the affected area, and avoid going under any canopy that may have hanging broken limbs. All service providers in our network are independently licensed and insured — verify credentials before work begins.
