Post Storm Tree Care

Eric Putnam, BCMA Inc. - Trusted Post Storm Tree Care

Storm damage isn't always obvious, and how a tree is handled afterward affects whether it recovers. Broken limbs, split trunks, hanging branches, and shifted roots can all change how a tree should be cleaned up, pruned, or removed. Eric Putnam BCMA Inc. starts every post storm job with an arborist's evaluation, so you know whether the tree can be saved, what it needs, and what's safe to do first. Until the area has been checked, keep people, vehicles, and pets away from visibly damaged trees and any suspended branches.

When a tree can be saved, we use proper pruning cuts to remove broken and hanging limbs and clean up damaged wood, and we explain what to expect as the tree recovers. When it can't, we plan a safe removal around the damage, nearby structures, and the surrounding property. Storm work done in a rush can injure a tree that would have recovered, so we focus on the right cuts, not just fast cleanup.

After the storm, we can also check the rest of your trees for hidden damage and for weak spots that could cause problems in the next one. That can include tree health care to help stressed trees recover. Call or text for a free estimate on storm damage, or book an arborist consultation if you're not sure whether a tree can be saved.
