Emergency / storm damage

24-Hour Emergency Tree Surgeon in York.

When a tree comes down in a storm, splits, or is left hung-up and unstable, it stops being a gardening job and becomes a hazard. Our local tree surgeons respond fast to make the situation safe — clearing fallen trees, removing dangerous limbs, and dealing with trees leaning on roofs, cars, fences or cables.

Emergency call-outs start from around £400, with out-of-hours and weekend rates higher; the call-out is often deducted from the final invoice if the full work goes ahead. We'll give you a clear price before we start. A genuinely dangerous tree can be made safe without council consent, but we still handle the notifications properly.

If a tree is on a power line or blocking a road, call the emergency services or your network operator first for the immediate danger — then call us to clear and make good. For anything that can wait safely until morning, the quote form is the fastest way to get us booked in.

Questions

Things people ask.

How quickly can you come out?

For genuine emergencies — a fallen or dangerous tree — we aim to get a local tree surgeon to you as fast as possible, day or night. Call 07400 258588 for anything urgent rather than using the form.

Do I need permission for emergency tree work?

Work needed to remove an immediate danger is exempt from the usual TPO and conservation-area consent, but the council still has to be notified. We document it properly and handle that side for you.

How much does a tree surgeon cost in York?

Most domestic tree jobs in York land between £150 and £1,500, depending on the tree's size, access and the volume of waste. A typical day with a full team is around £350–£500. Every quote is free and itemised.

Do I need permission to cut down a tree in York?

Possibly — if the tree has a TPO, or sits in a conservation area with a trunk over 75mm across. York has a lot of conservation area. We check before we quote and handle the council application for you.
