A Tree Is on Your House. Now What?
When a storm drops a tree on a roof, a car or a driveway, or leaves one hanging by a split, it needs to come down before it does more damage. McCullough Tree Service handles emergency removals across Longwood and Central Florida, including trees resting on structures, where a wrong cut can make things worse.
Call (407) 734-5854 and we'll respond as quickly as we can. If a tree is on a power line, call your utility company first and keep everyone away from it.
What to Do Until We Arrive
- Keep people and pets away from the tree and anything under it
- Stay clear of downed or sagging power lines
- Take photos of the damage for your insurance company
- Don't try to cut a tree that is resting on the house: the weight can shift when it's cut
How We Remove a Tree from a Structure
We work out where the weight is before making any cut, then take the tree off piece by piece with ropes and rigging, or lift it off with a crane when it's too heavy to lower. Once the tree is off, we cut up and haul away the trunk and limbs and clean up the debris.
After a storm, our storm damage tree cleanup crews can also clear the rest of the yard and check other trees for cracked or hanging limbs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who do I call when a tree falls on my house?
Call a licensed, insured tree service like McCullough Tree Service at (407) 734-5854. If a power line is involved, call your utility company first.
Will homeowners insurance cover emergency tree removal?
It often covers trees that fall on a covered structure. Check your policy and take photos before the tree is removed.
Can you remove a tree that is on my roof without more damage?
Yes. We rig or crane the tree off in sections so the weight comes off the roof in a controlled way.

We can grind the stump on a later visit, once the emergency is handled.
