Rapid removal of fallen, leaning, or hazardous trees threatening your home, vehicles, or property. Our emergency tree crews are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week across Delaware and surrounding areas.
Comprehensive storm debris cleanup after hurricanes, nor'easters, ice storms, and high wind events. We clear downed limbs, scattered debris, and damaged tree material to restore your property quickly and safely.
Specialized emergency response for trees that have fallen on homes, garages, fences, and outbuildings. Our experienced team carefully removes trees from structures to prevent additional damage while protecting your property.
Broken and hanging limbs, known as widow makers, are extremely dangerous and must be removed immediately. Our arborists safely eliminate hanging branches before they fall and cause injury or property damage.
Heavy rain and saturated soil cause trees to uproot entirely. Our team handles complete uprooted tree removal including root ball extraction, soil restoration, and debris hauling throughout Delaware and the tri-state area.
We understand the stress of storm damage. Eric's Tree and Stump provides detailed documentation, photographs, and written assessments to support your homeowner's insurance claim for storm-related tree damage.
An emergency tree situation exists any time a tree or limb poses an immediate threat to people, structures, or utilities. This includes trees that have fallen on your home, large branches hanging over occupied areas, trees leaning dangerously after root damage, and trees in contact with power lines. Delaware homeowners should never attempt to handle these situations themselves. Professional emergency tree removal requires proper equipment, training, and safety protocols. If you're unsure whether a situation is an emergency, call us, we'll assess it at no charge.
Delaware experiences a wide range of severe weather including nor'easters, tropical storms, hurricanes, ice storms, and summer thunderstorms with high winds. These events cause significant tree damage across New Castle, Kent, and Sussex counties. Common storm damage includes uprooted trees from saturated soil, split trunks from lightning strikes, broken limbs from ice accumulation, and crown failure from high winds. Our emergency tree crews are familiar with Delaware's tree species and how local weather conditions affect their structural integrity.
If a tree falls on your home, prioritize safety above everything else. Evacuate the affected area immediately and do not re-enter until a professional has assessed the structural situation. Call 911 if there is any risk to life. Shut off electricity at the breaker if safe to do so. Then call Eric's Tree and Stump for immediate emergency tree removal. Document everything with photos for your insurance claim before any cleanup begins. Do not attempt to cut or move the tree yourself — the weight and tension in fallen trees can cause sudden, unpredictable movement.
Most homeowner's insurance policies cover the cost of removing a tree that has fallen on an insured structure. Policies typically do not cover removing a tree that has fallen in your yard without hitting a structure. Contact your insurance provider as soon as possible after storm damage occurs. Eric's Tree and Stump provides detailed written documentation, photographs, and formal assessments to support your claim. We have worked with all major insurance companies serving Delaware and can help simplify the process for you.
The best emergency is one that never happens. Regular tree maintenance dramatically reduces the risk of storm damage. Annual tree inspections identify weak branches, root problems, and structural defects before they become storm hazards. Professional tree pruning removes dead and overextended limbs. Tree cabling provides added support to vulnerable trees. If you have large trees near your home in Delaware, schedule a pre-season inspection before storm season to assess their condition and reduce your risk.
