AFS Emergency Storm & Tree Services
Restore safety fast and effectively when weather related emergencies happen
When large trees sustain damage from severe weather, they can fall in unpredictable ways, often coming to rest precariously on man-made structures. Unfortunately, the risk from these fallen trees remains after the storm has passed. Weighing thousands of pounds, and being structurally unsound, these fallen trees can cause further damage to structures if not dismantled and removed correctly.
The AFS team is highly skilled in dealing with these delicate, yet risky situations. Our array of ropes, rigging equipment, and powerful saws allow us to minimize further damage during the removal of fallen trees. Using advanced rigging techniques we are able to stabilize and control the dangerously heavy loads while we carefully release trapped tension and weight.
Additionally, our team is versed in emergency scene management, including pedestrian and traffic control, which helps to limit liability exposure to property owners while dealing with these unexpected catastrophes.
As part of our dynamic and flexible response system, we work in conjunction with several local tree services who are able to assist with incidents that require additional man power, or extreme-hazard climbing operations.
