A tree down on a car, a roof, or a driveway doesn't wait for business hours, and Root & Branch Tree Service answers the phone 24/7 for exactly that reason. Shenandoah Valley thunderstorms, high winds, heavy rain, and winter ice put steady stress on Harrisonburg's mature hardwoods and wooded residential lots. which is when most of our emergency calls come in -- a limb through a window, a leaning trunk blocking the only way out of a driveway, or a whole tree resting on a fence line.

Every emergency call starts with a phone assessment so the crew arrives with the right equipment already loaded. In Harrisonburg, that often means a bucket truck and rigging gear for anything near the Edith J. Carrier Arboretum or in older neighborhoods with mature canopy, since those trees tend to fail in the largest, heaviest pieces.

From the Harrisonburg Crew

Shenandoah Valley thunderstorms, high winds, heavy rain, and winter ice put steady stress on Harrisonburg's mature hardwoods and wooded residential lots. In Harrisonburg, the calls that come in during or right after a storm are almost always the trees that were already leaning or had visible deadwood -- if you've been putting off a trim, that's usually the tree that goes first.

Emergency Tree Service Customer Reviews

Tight lot near JMU, they still managed to rig down two big trees without touching the neighbor's fence. Very impressive.
— Ana R., Downtown Harrisonburg
Ground three old stumps left over from the previous owner. Machine made quick work of it and they raked the chips back in as requested.
— Tom W., Reherd Acres
A dead tree near the Arboretum tree line was leaning toward our shed. Crew came out within a couple days and took it down in careful sections. Cleanup was good, could've been slightly faster.
