Emergency, Storm & Insurance Tree Work

When trees fail, getting the site safe comes first.

Storms, high winds and unexpected tree failures can leave trees and branches across homes, roads, fences, vehicles and access points.

Balanced Tree Care provides emergency and storm-damage tree work across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie, including urgent make-safe works, damaged tree removal and tree works associated with insurance claims.

Storm damage & fallen trees

We can assist with:

  • Fallen trees and branches

  • Storm-damaged trees

  • Hanging and broken limbs

  • Trees impacting buildings and structures

  • Blocked driveways and access

  • Dangerous or unstable tree material

  • Emergency pruning and removal

  • Site make-safe works

Our priority is to safely manage the immediate hazard before determining what further work is required.

Insurance tree work

Storm damage often involves more than simply removing a fallen tree.

We can provide clear photographic documentation of works undertaken and work alongside homeowners, builders, property managers and other parties involved in insurance-related tree work.

Our focus is straightforward: communicate clearly, work safely and leave the site in a manageable condition.

Complex removals around property

Trees don't always fail conveniently.

Where damaged trees are resting on or around houses, fences and other infrastructure, our arborists use specialist climbing and rigging techniques to carefully control branches and timber during removal.

This allows us to work methodically in difficult environments while minimising further damage to the surrounding property.

Has a tree come down?

If there's an immediate threat to life, stay clear of the area and contact the appropriate emergency service.

For storm-damaged trees and urgent tree work, contact Balanced Tree Care and send through photos where it is safe to do so.
