Storm Damage, Our Rapid Response
Trees can be uprooted by our British weather at its worst. Damaged trees and broken fencing can present a risk of injury to people who visit your property, animals and passers-by. Furthermore, broken fences can pose a security threat from unwelcome intruders.
For many years our team has helped businesses across Leicester and wider Leicestershire deal with storm damage. We secure outside areas, repair fencing and trees, then clear debris. Our rapid response keeps commercial grounds, access roads and shared spaces usable.
Emergency Repairs
Our team constantly monitor the weather. So, when a storm hits, we are ready to spring into action, conducting storm damage repairs throughout Leicestershire and the East Midlands.
Damage Prevention
We can advise and act for you, to minimise storm damage, such as stronger fence posts and taking steps to protect your trees through reductions and tree maintenance.
Eco-friendly Waste
All green waste from any fallen trees or tree limbs we remove is re-purposed for Biomass, a renewable type of energy that uses organic matter, instead of being thrown away.

Preventing Falling Trees
Before the worst happens, fallen trees can be avoided through regular health checks. Trees that are diseased or aren’t pruned can be at a higher risk when a storm hits. To avoid this, we can:
- Identify cracks and rot in the tree
- Remove damaged or broken branches
- Treat diseases and remove fungus
- Remove branches that pose a safety threat
- Inspect trees leaning at a sharp angle
- Risk assessment (buildings/power lines)
- Reduce tree size in areas of high risk
What Are The Risks During a Storm?
Leaving your trees and fences to fend off the bad weather, when you suspect they are already unsafe can cause greater costs later down the line. The most common ones are below.
- Loose debris being blown into a window
- Seriously injuries to people and pets
- Smashed conservatory roof
- Broken roof tiles from falling branches
- Damaged roof & home contents
- Water damage to your property
- Vehicle bodywork damage
