Our Wichita Emergency Tree Services
When a tree falls on your house or vehicle, it can be a source of anxiety and panic. When you need assistance with a tree emergency, you can’t afford to wait for days on end for a response. Arbor Masters is ready to assist you with teams waiting on standby 24/7 for emergencies. We also offer several services to help with hazardous trees or cleaning up after a storm. Our services include:
Emergency Removal
We dispatch teams as soon as possible (usually within 48 hours) to take care of a tree on your house or vehicle. We prioritize emergency work over our other jobs.
Hazard Tree Removal
If you notice a tree that seems unstable or damaged, we can safely remove it to protect your family. Signs of a hazardous tree include leaning, cracking, or rotting.
Storm Damage Pruning
After a storm, we can prune branches damaged by the weather from the tree that poses a risk to your family and property.
Cabling and Bracing After a Storm
If a storm leaves sections of your tree weak, we can use cables and braces to strengthen them. Supporting a weak tree can reduce the risk of having to remove it.
The Value of Experience During an Emergency
While many may offer emergency removal services, not all tree care companies are cut from the same cloth. When hiring an emergency tree care company, you want to find someone with the experience necessary to complete the job. Consider some of these benefits of expertise:
Prioritize Safety: Removing a downed tree is dangerous, especially when handled by a team without the proper training and experience. Professionals know how to remove a tree near power lines or down on a house.
Protect Your Property: An expert can avoid any additional damage to your property when removing a fallen tree.
Intelligent Decisions: Experienced teams can make better decisions when considering how to remove the tree and clean up debris.
Efficiency and Skill: An experienced team with the proper equipment can remove a tree faster and avoid having you wait for days for it to finally be gone.

Preventing Future Emergencies
While there’s no way to make a tree 100 percent safe, there are steps homeowners can take to limit the risk a tree poses when severe weather strikes. Some techniques we may suggest to limit the risk of a tree emergency include:
Pruning: Pruning your tree can remove weak branches at risk of breaking in a storm and make your tree more aerodynamic to resist uprooting from the wind.
Structural Support: Cabling and bracing can help stabilize and protect weak sections of your tree and limit the risk of them breaking in a storm.
Aerating the Soil: Using an air spade, we can reduce soil compaction to help a tree’s roots expand farther and anchor it in the ground.
