Storm Damage Tree Cleanup in Annapolis, MD
When Anne Arundel County's mature canopy meets a summer thunderstorm or a winter ice storm, limbs come down on roofs, fences, driveways, and yards. We clear the damage and haul it away.
Two Storm Seasons, One Canopy
This county gets hit from both directions. Summer brings fast-moving thunderstorms and the occasional tropical system — the June 2026 storms that dropped large trees onto homes in West Annapolis are the latest reminder. Winter brings ice: a quarter inch of ice adds hundreds of pounds to a mature oak's canopy, and the limbs that fail are almost always the dead or weakly attached ones.
Storm cleanup covers downed trees and large limbs on your property: cutting up fallen wood, clearing it from roofs, fences, and driveways, and hauling the debris away. Trees left standing but damaged get an honest assessment — pruned back to sound wood where the tree can recover, removed where it can't.
Safety First After a Storm
Stay clear of damaged trees, especially any touching wires — call your utility before anyone goes near a tree on a power line. Don't try to pull down hung-up limbs yourself; they're under tension and fail unpredictably. Take photos of the damage for your records, then request a quote for the cleanup.
Preventing the Next One
The cheapest storm work is the work done before the storm: late-fall deadwood removal ahead of ice season, and corrective pruning for trees with structural defects. If a storm exposed a weak tree, ask about it during your cleanup visit.
Frequently Asked Questions
A tree just fell on my property. What do I do first?
Make sure everyone is safe and stay away from the tree — especially if wires are involved. Call your utility if any lines are down or contacted. Take photos, then request a quote for cleanup. Don't attempt to cut a tree off a structure yourself.
Do you remove trees from roofs?
We clear downed trees and limbs from roofs, fences, sheds, and driveways, cutting the wood into manageable pieces and hauling it away. Structural repairs to the roof itself are a roofer's job — we handle the tree.
Will my homeowner's insurance cover storm cleanup?
Many policies cover tree removal when a tree damages a covered structure, with varying limits for debris removal alone. Coverage details are between you and your insurer — we can document the damage with photos and a written description of the work for your records.
Can anything be done to prevent storm damage?
Regular deadwood removal and structural pruning lower the odds significantly — most storm failures start with dead or weakly attached limbs. Late fall, before ice season, is the ideal time for that preventive work.
