Our Fort Worth Emergency Tree Removal
Everything’s bigger in Texas, including some of our storms. When a storm topples your tree and puts you and your family in danger, you need an expert team like ours at Arbor Masters who can remove the tree and limit any further damage to your property. We offer several types of hazard and emergency services, such as:
Emergency Removal
Emergency tree removal typically involves removing a tree that ends up on a structure, power line, or road. We prioritize emergency work and make it our top priority to get the tree out of the way to allow for repairs or reopening the road for traffic.
Hazardous Tree Removal
When a tree poses an immediate risk to people or property, we can remove it before a major storm knocks it over and causes a whole new set of headaches. The team at Arbor Masters has the training and experience to remove these dangerous trees.
Storm Damage Pruning
After a storm or hurricane damages your trees, we can send our team to remove dead or damaged branches from your tree. This will reduce stress in your tree and make it safer during the next storm.
Cabling and Bracing After a Storm
We’ll cable and brace the weak portions of your trees to help protect them from further damage when another storm shows up. We follow all ANSI A300 standards for cabling and bracing, so you can trust we use the best practices for your trees.
Weather-Related Tree Problems in Fort Worth
Living in Texas means dealing with weather extremes that can pose risks to trees. Watch out for these potential threats:
Tornadoes: Trees can easily be uprooted by the extreme winds during a tornado.
Hurricanes: Fort Worth is occasionally in the path of hurricanes that bring a dangerous combination of wind and rain that can easily topple a tree.
Flooding: Prolonged flooding can make trees unstable and prone to falling.
Severe Thunderstorms: Severe thunderstorms can bring damaging hail, strong winds, and even tornadoes, causing significant damage to trees.
Excessive Heat Warnings: Excessive heat can cause trees to become stressed, leading to weakened branches and increased susceptibility to pests and diseases.

How to Help Prevent Tree Emergencies in Fort Worth
While there’s no way to make a tree 100 percent safe, there are a few techniques that can lower the risk of it failing during severe weather, including:
Pruning: Pruning your trees can make them more wind-resistant and lower the risk of weak branches snapping off in a storm.
Cabling and Bracing: Installing cables and braces in your trees will improve their structural integrity and lower the risk of broken branches in a storm.
Reducing Soil Compaction: Compacted soil limits root growth and makes a tree more unstable; arborists can use an air spade to aerate the soil and reduce compaction.
