Emergency work still starts with a licensed read of the hazard.

Before the crew arrives

Keep clear until it is assessed.

A tree under emergency load can shift without warning. These four steps protect you and speed up the response.

  1. 01

    Stay clear of the tree

    A fallen or leaning tree can be under tension you cannot see. Keep people, pets, and vehicles away from the trunk and anything it rests on.

  2. 02

    Treat any power line as live

    If a limb or trunk is touching a line, report it to your utility provider first. Tree work follows once the line is confirmed safe.

  3. 03

    Photograph the hazard

    Photos of the tree, what it is resting on, and the surrounding property help the crew plan the response and give you a record for insurance.

  4. 04

    Request assistance

    Describe what failed and what it threatens. A licensed arborist reviews every emergency request, day or night.

Emergency operations

What emergency tree assistance covers

Every emergency call starts with the same read before a saw comes out: what failed, what it threatens, and how it is loaded.

  • Fallen and leaning trees

    Trees down across a yard, driveway, or structure, removed under control rather than left to settle further.

  • Hanging and broken limbs

    Limbs cracked but still attached, brought down deliberately before they fail on their own.

  • Trees on structures

    Rigged removal of a tree resting on a roof, fence, or vehicle, planned so nothing shifts unexpectedly.

  • Split and unstable trunks

    A trunk split or shifted by wind or weight, assessed and removed before it fails further.

  • Blocked access

    Trees and debris cleared from driveways and entrances so the property is reachable again.

  • 24 hour tree service

    Emergency calls are answered around the clock. A hazard that cannot wait for business hours does not have to.

Emergency answers

Frequently asked questions about emergency tree assistance

01 What counts as a tree emergency?

A tree emergency is a hazard that threatens people or property right now: a tree down on a structure or driveway, a split or leaning trunk over a house, or a large limb hanging over an area people use. If any of that describes your property, request assistance or call.

02 Is emergency tree removal available 24 hours a day?

Yes. Louisiana Tree Masters provides 24 hour tree service for hazards that cannot wait for business hours across Lafayette, Youngsville, and Acadiana.

03 What should I do while I wait for the crew?

Keep people and pets clear of the tree and anything it rests on. Do not cut anything under tension. If a power line is involved, report it to your utility provider first, and photograph the damage if it is safe to do so.

04 Do you remove trees that have fallen on a house or vehicle?

Yes. Removing a tree from a roof, fence, or vehicle is planned and rigged so it comes off under control, without adding damage.

05 Which areas do you cover for emergency response?

Emergency tree assistance covers Lafayette, Youngsville, and the surrounding Acadiana parishes, with extended-service response planned per job outside that core area.

06 Are emergency tree assessments free?

Yes. Louisiana Tree Masters offers free estimates, including for emergency and 24 hour tree service.

When it cannot wait

Request emergency tree assistance.

Tell us what failed and what it threatens. A licensed arborist responds day or night, and reads the hazard before anyone starts cutting.
