When a severe storm rolls through your neighborhood, the massive trees that normally provide beautiful shade can instantly become multi-ton, terrifying hazards. High-velocity winds, heavy ice accumulation, and hyper-saturated soil can cause catastrophic trunk failures or complete root uprooting. When a tree crashes through your roof, traps your vehicles in the driveway, or pulls down your power lines, you are suddenly dealing with a highly dangerous, dynamic physics problem. We are your premier rapid-response emergency tree service professionals in Lewiston, ME. We deploy heavy machinery, specialized rigging gear, and highly trained chainsaw operators at a moment's notice to stabilize hazards, cut the tension, and secure your property.
Has a tree fallen on your home or driveway? Stay back and call our 24/7 dispatch: 18334171744
When you frantically search for a team to remove a fallen tree, you need operators who understand load-bearing physics. A multi-ton tree resting on a residential structure holds massive amounts of stored kinetic energy. Amateurs with chainsaws frequently suffer severe, life-threatening injuries because they do not know how to read the "binds"—the complex areas of tension and compression within the bent wood. If a relief cut is made incorrectly, the heavy trunk can roll violently, spring upward, or crash completely through your ceiling. Our technicians are experts in load transfer. We carefully strap and secure the fallen sections, utilizing heavy-duty skid steers or cranes to lift the immense weight straight UP and away from your home, preventing any secondary impact damage.
Intense winds often result in "windthrow"—a scary situation where the entire tree topples over, pulling a massive, heavy plate of soil and roots up into the air with it. These scenarios are incredibly deceptive and lethal. If someone simply cuts the trunk away from the base without proper stabilization, the massive root plate will suddenly and violently snap back into the hole, crushing anything underneath it. Our emergency crews know exactly how to brace the root plate securely, sever the trunk safely, and push the massive stump back into the earth to secure the site.
During a severe regional storm, a fallen tree blocking your driveway traps your family on the property, completely preventing you from leaving for work and stopping emergency medical responders from reaching you. Our 24/7 dispatch prioritizes immediate access clearance. We arrive quickly, buck the heavy trunk into manageable logs, and process the dense canopy brush through our industrial wood chippers, restoring your mobility instantly.
Do not attempt to navigate the extreme, unpredictable dangers of a fallen tree alone. Trust the heavy-duty storm mitigation experts to restore safety to your home immediately.

"A microburst snapped a massive oak tree right onto our garage at 3 AM. The emergency tree service crew was there before sunrise. They lifted the tree off perfectly with a crane and tarped the hole without causing any more damage. Incredible response time."
"We woke up to find a huge pine tree completely uprooted and leaning dangerously close to our bedroom window. They arrived fast, stabilized the massive root ball so it wouldn't snap back, and dismantled the trunk safely. Complete lifesavers."
"Our driveway was completely blocked by a fallen tree after high winds. They showed up with chainsaws and a massive chipper, cut it all up, and had the driveway clear in an hour so we could get to work."
The Lewiston area traces its roots to 1669 with the early presence of the Androscoggin tribe (the namesake of the county in which the city resides). In the late 18th century, in 1795, Lewiston was incorporated as Lewistown. The presence of the Androscoggin River and Lewistown Falls made the town an attractive area for manufacturing and hydro-power businesses. The rise of Boston rail and textile tycoon Benjamin Bates saw rapid economic growth rivaling that of Cambridge, Worcester, and Concord. Irish immigrants were recruited to build the railroad links and dig the canals for the textile mills. The Irish stayed, and worked the mills and established flourishing businesses, as evidenced by the McGillicuddy, Callahan, and other Blocks and the St.Joseph's and St.Patrick's churches. In the 1850 Census Lewiston was fully 23% Irish born. The increase in economic stimulus prompted thousands of Quebecers to migrate, causing a population boom; the populace rose from 1,801 in 1840 to 21,701 in 1890. In 1855, local preacher Oren Burbank Cheney founded the Maine State Seminary, the first coeducational university in New England and one of the first universities to admit black students before the Emancipation Proclamation. Lewistown quickly became associated with the liberal arts and was incorporated as "Lewiston" in 1864, a year before the college was chartered as Bates College.
