How Emergency Storm Cleanup Works

When a tree is down, minutes matter. Here's how we get you safe and clear, fast.

  1. 1

    Call Our 24/7 Line

    Reach a real local crew any hour — day, night, weekend, holiday. Tell us what's down and where, and we head your way.

  2. 2

    Make the Scene Safe

    We assess hazards first — leaning trunks, tension in fallen limbs, anything near a line — and secure the area before we start cutting.

  3. 3

    Clear the Tree

    We cut the tree off your home, driveway, or roadway in controlled sections and remove the weight from the structure carefully.

  4. 4

    Clean Up & Haul Off

    We chip the brush, clear the debris, and leave the site safe. Need a full removal or stump grind after? We handle that too.

Tree down right now? Don't wait — call River Birch, we're on 24/7.

  • Storm Cleanup

    A big oak came down across our driveway during an ice storm and River Birch was out the same day. Ezequiel and the crew were fast, careful around the house, and left the yard spotless. Lifesavers.

  • 5-Star Service

    Showed up when they said they would, gave a fair quote, and did excellent work. It's rare to find a crew this responsive and professional in the High Country. Will use them again.

  • Honest & Professional

    From the estimate to the cleanup, everything was easy. Ezequiel is honest and does what he says. Fully insured, too, which gave us real peace of mind on a big removal.

Emergency Storm & Ice Questions

What to know when a tree comes down in the High Country.

  • Do you really answer 24/7?
    Yes. Storms and ice don't keep business hours in the High Country, so neither do we. Call (828) 964-6567 any hour and you'll reach a local River Birch crew for emergency storm and ice-damage tree work.
  • A tree fell on my house — what do I do first?
    Get everyone out of the affected area and call us right away. If a power line is involved, stay well clear and call your utility and 911 first. Then call River Birch — we'll secure the tree and get it off the structure safely.
  • Will my homeowner's insurance cover storm tree damage?
    Often, yes — when a tree hits a covered structure, many policies help with removal and repair. We document the scene with photos and provide an itemized invoice you can submit to your insurer. Coverage is between you and your carrier, but we make the paperwork easy.
  • How fast can you get here?
    As fast as conditions safely allow. We're based right in Deep Gap, so we're already in the High Country — no waiting on a crew to drive up the mountain from out of the area.
  • Do you handle ice-damage cleanup too?
    Yes. Ice loads snap limbs and split trunks all over Watauga County. We clear ice-damaged trees and limbs, then can prune or remove what's left compromised so it doesn't come down on the next storm.
