What to Do Right Now

After a storm, the first hour matters most. Keep people and pets away from the damage, stay clear of anything touching a power line, and let the professionals handle the cutting and clean-up. Here is the order we recommend.

  1. 1

    Keep everyone clear of the tree

    Move family, neighbors, and pets well away from fallen limbs, leaning trunks, and debris. Broken wood can shift without warning, so give it plenty of room.

  2. 2

    Treat every power line as live

    If a tree or limb is touching a line, assume it is energized. Do not touch it or anything in contact with it. Call your utility provider to report the line, then call us once the power company has cleared it.

  3. 3

    Stay out of damaged structures

    Do not enter a house, garage, or shed where a tree has come through the roof or walls. Structural damage is often hidden, and a crew should assess it before anyone goes back inside.

  4. 4

    Do not climb or cut a tree resting on a structure

    A tree pinned on a roof or fence is under tension, and cutting the wrong piece can make it drop or roll. Call Fortis Tree Services at 817-460-9364 for emergency removal and clean-up, and we will plan the cuts safely.

  5. 5

    Photograph the damage before anything is moved

    Take clear photos of the tree, the damaged areas, and the surroundings from several angles. These help with your insurance claim and give our crew a clear picture before they arrive.

What Storm Cleanup Includes

Storm damage doesn't stop at the fallen tree. Our crews remove the trunk and limbs, clear the work area, and haul the debris away, so your yard is usable again. Every storm job is scoped in writing on site before work begins, and you'll know exactly what's included. For stump removal after the cleanup, see our stump grinding pricing.

  • Emergency removal

    Fallen and leaning trees cut and removed safely from structures, driveways, and fences.

  • Limb and debris clean-up

    Broken limbs, branches, and brush gathered from the lawn and work area.

  • Debris haul-off

    Wood and debris hauled away from your property, not left stacked in the yard.

  • Stump grinding follow-up

    Available after removal if you want the stump gone too, quoted in the same estimate.

  • Clear written scope

    A free estimate that spells out what's included before any work starts. Call 817-460-9364 to book yours.

Storm Questions, Answered

Storm damage is stressful enough without guessing about cost or paperwork. Here are straight answers to the questions Fort Worth and DFW property owners ask us most after a storm. For a number tied to your property, call 817-460-9364 and we will walk the site with you.

How much does emergency tree removal cost in Dallas-Fort Worth?

Emergency pricing depends on the job: how large the tree is, where it has landed, and whether it is resting on a home, fence, or line. We quote emergency work on arrival or by phone, so you know the number before any cutting starts. Typical tree removal ranges are a useful guide, but storm jobs are priced on what is actually there. Our services and pricing page shows the typical ranges and what drives them.

Will my insurance cover tree removal after a storm?

That decision belongs to your insurance carrier, not to us. Take photos of the damage before anything is moved, and contact your carrier to ask what they cover. We will provide a clear written scope you can share with your adjuster, but we do not make coverage determinations.

Can you handle a tree that has fallen on my roof in Fort Worth?

Yes. A tree resting on a roof is one of the most common storm calls we take. Keep everyone out of the house and away from the tree, and do not attempt to cut it yourself. Call 817-460-9364 and we will assess the load and plan the removal so the structure is protected as the tree comes down.
