Frequently Asked Questions About Emergency Tree Service in New Orleans
What should I do if a tree falls on my house?
Call us immediately at (504) 896-0820. Stay away from the downed tree — especially if it hit electrical lines or structural elements. We respond 24/7, assess structural safety, remove the tree safely, and help document damage for your insurance claim.
How fast can Benton Tree Service respond to a tree emergency?
We offer same-day emergency response across New Orleans and the Greater Metro area, including Uptown New Orleans. For severe storm situations we prioritize by safety risk — trees on structures and power lines get our first available crew. Call (504) 896-0820 any time, day or night.
Does homeowners insurance cover emergency tree removal?
In most cases, yes — if the tree fell on your home, fence, or another covered structure due to a storm or covered event. We are experienced working alongside insurance claims and can provide documentation to support your case. If the tree fell in the yard without hitting a structure, coverage is less common.
What happens if a tree falls on a power line?
Do not touch or approach the tree or downed lines. Call 911 and Entergy Louisiana first. Once the power company has made the lines safe, our crew can remove the tree. For your safety and ours, Benton Tree Service does not work with or around live powerlines.
Do you charge extra for after-hours emergency calls?
Emergency service pricing varies based on scope of work, time of day, and on-site conditions. We are upfront about costs before we start — call us for a no-pressure assessment and we will give you an honest quote before any work begins.
