Emergency Storm Cleanup — Johnson City, TN


When a storm drops a tree on your roof or blocks your driveway, D & E Tree Service & Landscaping responds fast — including after hours.

Fallen trees. Downed limbs. Debris on structures. Call us now at (828) 545-6210 and we'll get a crew to your property.


We Answer After Hours — Because Storms Don't Wait

Standard hours are Monday through Saturday, 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM. But if a storm hits at 10 PM on a Friday and a tree has come down on your car, we do not expect you to wait until morning. Call (828) 545-6210. If we can get a crew to you, we will.

After-hours response is one of the things that sets D & E Tree Service & Landscaping apart from larger outfits that stop answering phones when the office closes. This is a locally owned operation, and that means you reach a real person who knows the area and can make the call.

Response time depends on crew availability, weather conditions, and how far out your property is from Johnson City — but we will always tell you honestly how quickly we can reach you.


What We Clear After a Storm

D & E Tree Service & Landscaping handles the full range of storm debris on residential and commercial properties across Johnson City, TN, and the surrounding area. If you're not sure whether your situation qualifies, call us—we'll tell you straight.

Fallen Trees on Structures

A tree down on a roof, fence, or outbuilding needs to be cut and lifted in the right sequence to avoid making the structural damage worse. We assess before we cut.

Downed Limbs Blocking Access

Limbs across driveways, access roads, or neighboring properties are a safety and liability issue. We clear the blockage and remove debris from the site.

Debris on Roofs and Gutters

Roof debris left after a storm can cause water damage within hours. We remove limbs and loose material safely without adding foot-traffic damage to an already stressed structure.

Compromised Trees Still Standing

A tree that survived the storm but has split bark, cracked main limbs, or exposed root damage is a hazard. We assess and, where necessary, remove it before it falls on its own.


How We Work — Safety Before Speed

Storm cleanup looks simple from the outside — cut the tree, haul it away. But a fallen tree on a structure loads weight in ways that can cause collapse the moment tension is released. D & E Tree Service & Landscaping sequences every job to protect the property first.

Structural Assessment Before the First Cut

Before any cutting starts, the crew walks the site to identify load points, assess which limbs are under tension, and determine the safest cut sequence. If a structure underneath is compromised, we work with the homeowner on how to proceed.

Power Line Awareness

Downed or partially downed trees near power lines require a different approach. We do not cut into lines or work across active conductors. If a line is involved, we work clear of it and advise the homeowner to contact their utility provider for line de-energizing before the crew proceeds in that zone.

Debris Removal Sequencing

We remove debris in stages—cutting and clearing access first, then addressing the main load, then cleaning the site. This reduces the risk of secondary damage from dragging heavy material across lawns, driveways, or structures already under stress.


Storm Cleanup — Common Questions

These are the questions we hear most from property owners dealing with storm damage in Johnson City, TN and the surrounding area.

  • Does D & E Tree Service & Landscaping respond to storm emergencies after hours?

    Yes. After-hours response is available when a crew can reach the property. Call (828) 545-6210 directly — do not rely on a contact form in an emergency. Response time depends on crew availability and distance from Johnson City, but you will always get an honest answer about when to expect us.

  • How quickly can you arrive after a storm hits?

    Arrival time depends on crew availability, how widespread the storm damage is across the service area, and how far your property is from Johnson City. During major storm events, we prioritise jobs with active structural damage. Call as early as possible to get on the schedule.
  • Does homeowner's insurance cover storm tree removal?

    It depends on your policy. Most homeowner's policies cover debris removal when a tree has damaged a covered structure — roof, fence, or outbuilding. Removal of a fallen tree that missed your structure is often not covered. Call your insurer before approving work if you plan to file a claim.
  • What should I do while waiting for the crew to arrive?

    Stay clear of the fallen tree and anything it is resting on. Do not try to cut or move it yourself. If a tree has hit a structure, keep everyone away from that section of the building. If a power line is involved, stay at least 30 feet away and call your utility company immediately.
