Emergency scenarios in Kent
Tap the situation that matches what happened.
A tree just came through your roof, wall, or into a room. This is the sequence for the first hour.
A tree came down in your yard without hitting the house. Removal is still time-sensitive — pressure-loaded limbs and unstable root balls are the main hazards.
A tree is blocking the roadway or lying across the street in front of your property. Right-of-way and utilities affect who does what.
A tree came down on a vehicle in your driveway or on the street.
A tree is resting on your roof and putting active load on the structure. The longer it sits, the more damage it does.
A tree came down across a fence — often the shared line with a neighbor. Removal and repair questions get tangled with who owned the tree.
A tree is blocking your driveway or came down across it — cars trapped, access cut off, or both.
A tree came down on a detached or attached garage — often with vehicles, tools, or utilities inside.
A tree or large limb came down on a deck, patio cover, or pergola.
A tree is leaning against your house, partially uprooted, or clearly moved since the last storm. It hasn't fully fallen — yet.
The root ball has lifted out of the ground. The tree may be down, hung up in another tree, or partially standing.
A major limb came down — on the house, yard, car, or hanging up in the tree above. The rest of the tree may still be a hazard.
A broken limb is caught up in the canopy and hasn't come down yet. In the trade this is called a widowmaker — it's the classic post-storm injury.
The trunk has cracked, split at a co-dominant fork, or shows a fresh vertical fissure after a storm. Structural failure is in progress.
A windstorm or snow event left multiple trees, limbs, and debris across the property. You need one crew to work through it.
A tree came down on a garden shed or detached outbuilding. Contents may be salvageable if handled carefully.
A tree or large limb came down into a pool, spa, or hot tub. Water, electrical, and structural damage are all in play.
A tree came down on a parked RV, travel trailer, boat, or camper — usually in the driveway or side yard.
A tree came down on a greenhouse, sunroom, solarium, or glass patio cover. Glass and framing are the hazards.
Lightning hit a tree on your lot. Visible damage ranges from a bark strip down one side to a completely blown-apart trunk.
Heavy wet snow or ice loading split a tree, dropped major limbs, or bent the whole crown over. Common with Puget Sound snow events.
You have a tree you're worried about — dead, leaning, dropping big limbs, or too close to the house. You want an honest read on the risk.
A neighbor's tree is leaning, dying, or dropping limbs onto your property. You want to know what you can actually do about it.
You need a crew now — middle of the night, holiday weekend, during an active windstorm. Dispatch runs around the clock.
A tree or large limb is down across electrical service lines — either the utility feed to the street or the drop to your house.
A tree on your property is fully dead — no leaves in season, bark sloughing off, brittle limbs dropping. It needs to come down before it fails.
A tree came down on a storefront, office, warehouse, or other commercial building. Business interruption and life safety are both in play.
A tree came down on a multi-family building — apartment, condo, townhouse row. Property management, HOA, and individual tenants are all involved.
A tree on your property is hollow, has fungal conks at the base, or sounds drum-like when tapped. Internal decay is advanced.
A tree or limb came down on rooftop or ground-mount solar panels. Electrical, glass, and roof structure are all at risk.
A tree or large limb came down on your mailbox or cluster box unit at the street.
A tree came down on a driveway gate, automatic opener, or entry gate. Access is cut off and the mechanism may be live.
You need a tree down today — not next week. Emergency, sale closing, insurance deadline, or an active hazard.
Something failed Saturday or Sunday and you can't wait until Monday. Weekend dispatch is fully staffed.
