About our 24/7 emergency tree removal service
After a Highveld storm, two things matter: making your property safe, and getting the tree off whatever it landed on before more damage happens. Our emergency line is answered at 2 AM the same as 2 PM — no voicemail routing.
We bring a generator-powered chainsaw kit, climbing gear, rigging ropes and the chipper truck. Insurance documentation is supplied on-site for your claim.

Tree fallen on roof or structure
Water ingress, electrical hazards and load-bearing damage escalate within hours. Highest priority. We arrive with rigging gear and tarps to make safe before the next squall.
Critical — call nowTree contacting Eskom / City Power lines
Life-threatening. Do not approach the tree, the soil or any metal fence touching it. Call Eskom 0860 037 566 AND 078 600 6367 simultaneously — our crew is trained in power-line proximity protocols.
Critical — call Eskom + usStorm damage — broken branches & split trees
Gauteng's October–March thunderstorm season. Lightning-split trunks, hanging limbs over walkways, multi-stem failures after high winds. Even a 'stable-looking' branch can fall without warning.
High urgencySeverely leaning tree after heavy rain
Saturated Highveld clay loses anchor capacity fast. A tree that's visibly leaning more than yesterday is in imminent collapse — assess and remove urgently.
High urgency — same dayTree fallen on a vehicle
We cut and remove section-by-section to minimise additional bodywork damage. Photograph everything first; our invoice supports your motor claim.
High urgencyFallen tree blocking driveway, gate or road
Critical for emergency-vehicle access and home security. Same-day clearance across Kempton Park, East Rand, Johannesburg, Pretoria and the wider Gauteng service area.
Urgent — same dayDead or diseased tree near a structure
Dead trees collapse without warning — especially after rain adds weight to brittle wood. If it's within falling distance of anything that matters, it must come down.

Standard callout R1,800; after-hours adds 35–60% depending on time. Full quote confirmed before any work starts.
Can you tarp my roof?
Yes, emergency tarping while you wait for the roofer.
