What to Do Right Now — Before You Call Anyone

Four steps in the next 30 minutes that protect you, your family, and your insurance claim.
Step 1
⚠️

Stay Clear — Check for Power Lines

Before approaching any fallen tree, look up. If the tree has contacted utility lines, stay at least 30 feet away. Downed lines can energize the ground and the tree itself.

⚡ ⚡ Power line contact — call Evergy at (888) 471-5275 first

Step 2

📸

Photograph Everything Before Touching It

Your insurance adjuster needs documentation of the original damage. Take photos of the fallen tree, point of impact, affected structures, your vehicle, fencing — everything.

⚡ Move nothing until you have a complete photo record

Step 3
📞

Call Your Insurance Company

Report the claim before cleanup begins. Your insurer may want to send an adjuster before any debris is moved. Get a claim number and ask about tree removal coverage. We can provide itemized invoices for submission.
Step 4
🌳

Call Us — We'll Handle the Rest

Once power lines are cleared and you’ve documented, call (816) 694-6352. We’ll assess, secure, and remove the debris safely — same day in most cases across the KC metro.

Tree touching power lines? Do not approach. Call Evergy (KCP&L) at (888) 471-5275 to cut power or secure the lines before any cleanup work begins. We'll coordinate with the utility company if needed and arrive once it's safe.

What we handle

Every Type of KC Storm Damage

From a single limb over your fence to a full tree through your roof — we have the equipment and crew to handle it same-day.

🏠

Tree on Your House

The most dangerous and most time-sensitive situation. We use rigging and cranes to lift and remove sections methodically — protecting your roof from further damage during extraction.

Priority Response

🚗

Tree on Your Vehicle

We carefully remove the tree without dragging it across your car. Rigging and controlled sectional removal to minimize additional damage to the vehicle while extracting the tree.
Same-Day Available
🌪️

Fallen Trees & Large Limbs

Full fallen trees across your lawn, driveway, fence, or blocking access to your property. We cut, remove, chip, and haul everything away — complete cleanup in one visit.
Complete Cleanup
☠️

Hanging & Widow-Maker Limbs

Partially broken limbs still hanging in the canopy are the most unpredictable storm hazard. They can fall without warning. We safely drop and remove these before the next wind event.
Urgent Hazard
🌲

Leaning & Uprooted Trees

Storm winds can tip a tree’s root ball partially out of the ground, leaving it leaning with significant structural stress. These need professional assessment and often immediate removal.

Post-Storm Tree Assessment

After visible damage is cleared, we walk your remaining trees and identify hidden structural damage, cracks, and root zone impacts before the next storm makes them a problem.

Insurance claims

We Help You Get the Documentation Right

Most KC tree services remove the tree and hand you a receipt. We do more. If you’re filing a homeowner’s insurance claim for storm tree damage, documentation matters — and we can help you build it.

We provide itemized invoices formatted for insurance submission, written damage assessments describing what we found and removed, and can communicate directly with your adjuster if needed.

1

Document Before Cleanup

Photograph all damage from multiple angles before any debris is moved. Your insurer may send an adjuster first — get a claim number before authorizing cleanup.

2

Emergency Debris Removal

Most policies cover emergency removal of a tree that fell on a covered structure. We document our work and provide itemized invoices for your claim file.

3

Written Assessment on Request

If your adjuster requires a written assessment of the tree damage, we provide one. This is a differentiator — most local crews can’t or won’t do this.
Coverage guide
SituationTypical Coverage
Tree falls on your homeUsually covered — as part of home damage claim
Tree falls on attached garageUsually covered — same as home
Tree falls on your fenceOften covered — check your policy
Tree falls on your vehicleAuto comprehensive — separate from home policy

Neighbor's tree falls on your propertyClaim goes through your insurance, not theirs
Emergency hazard removal (before it falls)Generally not covered — preventive is out-of-pocket

This is general guidance only. Coverage varies by policy and insurer. Always confirm with your carrier.

“I had tree limbs fall as a result of rain and strong winds. I contacted Omar Tree Service and Omar himself came by within 90 minutes. Very polite, extremely knowledgeable and frankly just a good guy not out to gouge the customer. He and his crew worked tirelessly. I could not be more satisfied!”

Common questions

Storm Cleanup in KC — Answered

How fast can you respond to storm damage in Kansas City?
We respond within 2 hours Mon–Sat 7am–7pm. For active hazards — a tree on your roof, blocking your driveway, or on a vehicle — call (816) 694-6352 directly and we’ll prioritize your job. Same-day service is available in most cases across the KC metro.
Yes — photograph everything before any cleanup begins. Your insurance adjuster needs documentation of the original damage. Take photos of the fallen tree, point of impact, affected structures, your vehicle, fencing, and landscaping. Don’t move anything until you have a complete photo record. We can also provide a written damage assessment if your insurer requires one.
It depends on what the tree fell on. If a storm tree falls on your home, garage, or fence, most homeowner’s policies cover removal as part of the property damage claim — typically with a $500–$1,000 deductible. If the tree falls in your yard without hitting a structure, coverage is less common. Call your insurer before cleanup and document everything first. We provide itemized invoices formatted for insurance submission.
Is it safe to go near a tree that fell on my house?
Do not approach a fallen tree that has contacted power lines — stay at least 30 feet away and call Evergy at (888) 471-5275 first. For trees that haven’t contacted utilities, you can safely document with photos from a distance, but don’t attempt to move large sections — timber under tension can spring unpredictably. Call us and we’ll assess and secure the situation.
Yes — this is one of the most common calls we get after KC storms. We work carefully to remove the tree without causing additional damage to the vehicle — in some cases using rigging to lift sections rather than drag them across the car. Document the damage with photos before we arrive, and check with your auto insurer about comprehensive coverage for the vehicle damage.
Yes. While we’re on-site for cleanup, our ISA-certified arborist will assess your remaining trees for structural defects, dead wood, and other hazards. We can perform preventive pruning and removal of at-risk limbs the same day in most cases. Kansas City’s storm season runs April through October — getting ahead of the next storm is almost always cheaper than cleaning up after it.
