Severe weather absolutely does not operate on a convenient 9-to-5 schedule. When a violent microburst, heavy winter ice accumulation, or hyper-saturated soil causes a massive tree to fail, the results are terrifying and catastrophic.

We are your premier rapid-response emergency tree service professionals in Des Moines, IA. We deploy heavy machinery, specialized rigging gear, and highly trained chainsaw operators at a moment's notice to stabilize unpredictable hazards and secure your property instantly.

When you frantically search for a tree service near me after a devastating storm, you need a highly skilled team that intimately understands dynamic loading and tension physics. A fallen tree resting heavily on a roof structure is under immense, unpredictable stress; a single wrong cut with a chainsaw can cause the massive trunk to roll violently, spring upward, or crash completely through the ceiling into your living room. Our technicians are experts in reading tension and compression wood. We carefully strap and secure the fallen sections, utilizing skid steers or heavy cranes to lift the immense weight directly UP and off the structure, preventing any secondary impact damage to your home.
Extreme high winds combined with rain-saturated soil frequently result in a dangerous situation called "windthrow"—where the entire tree topples over, pulling a massive, heavy plate of dirt and roots up into the air with it. These situations are incredibly deceptive and lethal. If an amateur severs the trunk, the massive, multi-ton root plate will suddenly and violently snap back into the hole, crushing anything underneath it. Our emergency crews know exactly how to brace the root plate securely, sever the trunk safely, and use heavy equipment to push the stump back into the earth to stabilize the site.
During a severe regional storm, a massive fallen tree blocking your driveway traps you on your property, completely preventing you from leaving for work and stopping emergency medical services from reaching your family. Our 24/7 dispatch prioritizes access clearance above all else. We arrive quickly, buck the heavy trunk into manageable logs, and process the dense, tangled canopy brush through our industrial wood chippers, clearing your driveway and restoring your mobility instantly.
Do not attempt to navigate the extreme, unpredictable dangers of a fallen tree alone. Trust the heavy-duty storm mitigation experts to restore safety to your home immediately.
