Storms can create dangerous situations fast. We provide storm damage tree services to remove fallen trees, clear broken limbs, and secure unsafe areas, reducing further risk and restoring safety after severe weather.

Summer storms on the Sunshine Coast can bring down a big gum across the driveway, drop a limb on the roof or leave a split branch hanging over the fence. When that happens, our team attends to make the site safe and clean up properly. Storm response is carried out during our business hours.

What to do first

  1. Keep everyone clear, including kids and pets.
  2. If powerlines are involved, stay well away and call Energex on 13 19 62. Never go near a fallen line.
  3. If anyone is in danger, call 000. For storm damage to your home, the SES can be reached on 132 500.
  4. Don't try to cut or move it yourself. Storm-damaged trees are under tension and can shift without warning.
  5. Take photos for your insurer if it's safe to do so, then call us.

How we handle storm-damaged trees

Storm damage is unpredictable. Roots may be loosened in wet ground, split limbs can be loaded like springs, and a tree resting on a roof or fence is often holding itself up on that structure. We assess the whole situation before any cutting starts, looking for hidden cracks, root lift and anything still hung up in the canopy.

Then we make it safe. Hanging and half-fallen limbs come down first, because they're often more dangerous than a tree that's already on the ground. We use rigging and sectional lowering to bring unstable sections down in a controlled way, so the damage doesn't get worse.

Clean-up after the storm

Once the immediate danger is dealt with, we clear the debris and leave your property safe and usable. We can also:

Hinterland storms and access

On steep, wet hinterland blocks, a fallen tree can block the only driveway in. Soft ground, slopes and narrow roads all affect how we get equipment to the site, and we plan for that when we respond.

Call us after a storm

Storm Damage Clean-up FAQs

Can a storm-damaged tree be saved?

Sometimes. If the roots are sound and the trunk isn't badly damaged, careful pruning can help it recover. We'll give you an honest assessment.

Will my insurance cover tree removal?

That depends on your policy. Check with your insurer. If they need a formal assessment, we can prepare an arborist report.

Should I prepare my trees before storm season?

Yes. Removing deadwood and checking for weak limbs before summer reduces the risk. See tree maintenance.

Wayne’s team were very efficient and listened to all our requests when trimming ou garden and taking out a couple of large palms. And they all cleaned up afterwards including getting a bit of leaf litter of of the pool. Very happy.

Can not fault Wayne and his team at all! They removed 20+ very large palms and gum trees from our property without a single issue. They were on time, polite and most importantly did a fantastic job. If you need tree lopping, these are your guys! Thanks again Wayne & crew!
