24/7 Emergency Tree Services North Shore

Tree emergencies include fallen trees blocking roads or driveways, trees on buildings or vehicles, hanging branches over high-traffic areas, trees on power lines, or trees threatening immediate collapse. Any situation where trees pose an immediate risk to public safety or property access qualifies as an emergency requiring urgent response.

Our emergency response team aims to be on-site within 1-2 hours for critical situations throughout North Shore. Response times may vary depending on weather conditions, location accessibility, and the number of concurrent emergencies. Life-threatening situations receive absolute priority, with other emergencies prioritised based on public safety risk.

Yes, John's Tree Services North Shore provides 24/7 emergency tree response every day of the year. Our emergency hotline is staffed around the clock, and we have crews available for immediate deployment during storms, severe weather events, and other emergency situations requiring urgent tree services.

First, ensure everyone's safety and evacuate if necessary. Check for electrical hazards and gas leaks. Contact emergency services (000) if there are injuries or immediate dangers. Then call our emergency hotline for rapid tree removal. Document the damage with photos for insurance purposes, but don't attempt to remove the tree yourself as this can cause additional structural damage.

Emergency tree service costs vary depending on the complexity, timing, and equipment required. After-hours and weekend services may include emergency response fees. We provide upfront pricing when possible and work with insurance companies for storm damage claims. Priority is always given to making the area safe, with detailed cost discussions following once immediate hazards are addressed.

Insurance coverage depends on your specific policy and the circumstances of the tree damage. Storm damage to buildings is typically covered, while preventive tree removal may not be. We provide detailed documentation and work with insurance assessors to support your claims. Our team can also provide emergency quotes and documentation needed for insurance purposes.

Trees on power lines require coordination with electricity providers (Ausgrid, Endeavour Energy) for safety reasons. We work directly with energy companies during emergencies and have certified electrical hazard tree workers for safely working near power infrastructure. Never attempt to remove trees from power lines yourself due to extreme safety risks.

Our emergency tree services cover all North Shore suburbs including Upper North Shore, Lower North Shore, and Northern Beaches areas. During major storm events, we prioritise based on safety risks and accessibility, but we respond to emergencies throughout the greater North Shore region 24/7.
