When the tree becomes the emergency
Emergency tree services for Memphis properties
Start a Memphis emergency request with the most urgent condition: a tree on an occupied building, a damaged trunk beside the home, limbs overhead, or a blocked entrance. The review connects that hazard with access, equipment, removal, and the cleanup that follows.
Tree on Structure Removal
A tree resting on your house, garage, roof, or enclosure needs controlled removal. The tree’s position and the affected structure guide the plan.
Explore structure removalHazardous Tree Removal
A new lean, lifting roots, cracked trunk, or hanging branch deserves attention. Request an evaluation of the tree and the property around it.
Explore hazardous tree helpStorm Damage Cleanup
After the immediate hazards are handled, clear the agreed work areas of downed trees, limbs, and woody debris. Confirm hauling and cleanup in the scope.
Explore storm cleanupRoof Tarping & Mitigation
When tree impact or severe weather leaves the roof exposed, temporary protection may be needed while permanent repairs are arranged.
Explore roof protectionCrane & Equipment Coordination
Tight access and heavy tree sections can require specialized equipment. Crane support and controlled rigging are reviewed around the job and available resources.
Discuss your situationBuilt around the property
Memphis tree damage can affect roofs, drives, and utilities
A large tree can extend from a Memphis backyard across a garage, fence, driveway, or neighboring property. Explain where the tree begins, what it is resting on, and which route is available from the street. That information helps distinguish the removal problem from the rest of the storm debris.
Overhead lines, parked vehicles, locked gates, and limited room between buildings can restrict access. Tell us about visible utility involvement without approaching the hazard. For rental homes and managed properties, include the person who can authorize entry and approve the work.
Driveways & detached garages
Describe whether the tree blocks vehicle access, rests on a garage, or spans both areas. Multiple contact points can affect the removal sequence.
Utility involvement
If a tree is touching a line, stay clear and report it to the utility. Tell us about the contact so the tree work can be reviewed around utility coordination.
Shared property boundaries
When a tree crosses a fence or reaches a neighboring structure, describe both sides and the available access. Confirm authorization for the planned work areas.
One clear next step
From the first call to a coordinated response
Storm damage can leave several things competing for your attention. The first conversation helps identify the immediate problem and organize the work around it.
Tell us what happened
Call or send the address, the affected property, and a callback number. Share photos only if you can take them from a safe location.
Review the response
The tree’s position, access, structure damage, and equipment needs help determine the work and available response options.
Confirm the plan
Review the scope, authorization, and scheduling so you know what is being arranged before work starts.
Remove, protect & document
The agreed work moves forward, with a clear handoff for cleanup, temporary roof protection, or remaining repairs.
Tree on the roof?
Plan the removal and what comes next
A tree resting on a house or garage needs a plan that accounts for the building underneath it. Controlled handling, equipment access, and the removal sequence all matter.
Once the tree is removed, the roof may still be open to the weather. Ask about temporary tarping and mitigation alongside the removal so the next step is part of the conversation.
- Tree and limb removal around affected structures
- Crane and rigging review when the job calls for it
- Temporary roof protection considered in the scope
- Debris handling and remaining repair needs identified
For immediate danger to life, call 911 first. Keep clear of damaged structures and unstable trees. Report downed or contacted power lines to the utility; do not approach the hazard for photos.

A clearer record from damage to cleanup
When tree damage is part of an insurance claim, keep the work organized as the property changes. Available photographs, scope notes, equipment details, and invoices can help explain what was found and what was done.
Ask what documentation will be provided with your service. Coverage and payment decisions remain with your insurer.
- Before-and-after photos when conditions allow
- Visible impact areas and access constraints
- Removal method, equipment, and work performed
- Temporary protection and cleanup included in the scope

Memphis emergency tree service FAQs
What emergency tree services do you offer in Memphis?
CAVALTREE coordinates emergency tree removal, tree on structure removal, hazardous tree removal, storm damage cleanup, and roof tarping and mitigation. The work is reviewed around the property, access, equipment, and available crews.
How quickly can a crew reach my Memphis property?
Call 877-509-4222 with the address and a description of the damage. Timing depends on conditions, access, equipment needs, and available crews. During a major storm, arrival and dispatch are confirmed after the request is reviewed.
Can you review a tree that spans my Memphis garage and driveway?
Yes. Include both the building impact and the blocked access in the request. Describe any other contact points, such as a fence or neighboring roof. Equipment needs, controlled removal, cleanup, and temporary roof protection can then be reviewed together.
Can roof tarping be coordinated after tree removal?
Temporary roof protection can be reviewed along with the tree removal. Confirm tarping in the agreed scope. Roof condition, weather, access, and crew availability affect the work; permanent roof repairs are arranged separately.
Do you offer regular tree services too?
Yes. You can request tree removal, tree pruning and trimming, stump grinding, arborist services, and forestry mulching. Tell us whether you need urgent storm help or are planning ongoing property care so the request can be routed appropriately.
Do you serve areas around Memphis?
Requests can be reviewed for Bartlett, Germantown, Collierville, Lakeland, Arlington, and Millington, along with other nearby locations. Include the exact property address. Crew deployment, access, equipment, and the service requested affect availability.
What if the damaged tree crosses a fence or reaches another property?
Describe both affected areas and who can arrange access. Share each relevant property address and identify any building damage. The proposed work should define where crews will enter, what will be removed, and who can authorize that scope before scheduling is confirmed.
Can you provide documentation for an insurance claim?
Ask for available damage photos, the removal scope, equipment and access notes, and invoices. Those records can help organize your claim documentation. Your insurer determines coverage and payment.
What should I do if a tree is touching a power line?
Stay clear of the tree, line, and nearby objects. Contact the utility to report the hazard. For injury, fire, collapse, or immediate danger to life, call 911 first. Do not approach an unsafe tree or damaged roof to take photos.
