24/7 Emergency Tree Service — Hill Country & Southwest Austin

Oak on the roof, cedar across the driveway, limbs in the lines after a lake-crossing storm — call now. Crews dispatch around the clock from Southwest Austin.

When a supercell rides the escarpment or an ice storm loads every juniper canyon west of Loop 360, we run 24/7 storm response across Dripping Springs, Lakeway, Bee Cave, West Lake Hills, and Southwest Austin. Trees on structures come first, then blocked driveways and private roads — a real issue out here, where one downed oak across a shared caliche drive can strand four households — then hanging limbs over the places people walk.

We photograph everything before we touch it and provide itemized invoices formatted for insurance claims — most carriers cover emergency removal from structures, and good documentation is the difference between a smooth claim and a fight.

What counts as a tree emergency

Call immediately if a tree or limb is: on a roof, car, or fence; leaning visibly more than it was yesterday; cracked at a major union; hung up in another tree over an area people use; or down across a driveway, private road, or ranch gate. If a limb is tangled in the electric service line, call your utility first — Austin Energy or PEC depending on where you are — then us for everything from the drop to the ground.

After region-wide events, door-knockers with chainsaws flood neighborhoods from Circle C to Rough Hollow. Get a written quote with a company name, insurance certificate, and a local number — storm chasers disappear when the callback work starts.

How emergency pricing works

We quote on arrival, in writing, before any saw starts — emergency work is priced by crew-hours and equipment, not by fear. Making the scene safe (tree off the structure, tarped, access cleared) can often be separated from full cleanup, which your insurance adjuster may prefer anyway.

How it works

  1. Call — a human or our 24/7 assistant answers, day or night
  2. Triage: structure involved? power lines? access blocked?
  3. Crew dispatched with priority for structures and blocked access
  4. Photos + itemized invoice for your insurance claim

Priority dispatch — quoted on arrival

24/7 Emergency Tree Service — FAQs

Does homeowners insurance cover emergency tree removal?

Usually yes when the tree damaged a covered structure — typical policies cover removal from the structure plus a capped debris amount. A tree that falls in the open yard often is not covered. We provide time-stamped photos and itemized invoices that adjusters accept.

How fast can you get here?

During normal weather: typically within 2–4 hours anywhere from Driftwood to Westlake, faster in Southwest Austin where we are based. During a region-wide storm event we triage structures first and communicate honest ETAs — no ghosting.

A neighbor's tree fell on my property — who pays?

In Texas, the fallen tree is generally the responsibility of the property it landed on (your insurance), unless the neighbor knew the tree was dead or hazardous. Document everything; we note visible pre-existing decay in our report.

Storm damage? Leaning oak? We answer 24/7 across Dripping Springs and neighboring suburbs.
