Emergency & Storm Tree Removal for Surgoinsville Homes
Surgoinsville sits in a long, open valley, and summer thunderstorms move through it with straight-line winds that have little to slow them down. The trees that suffer most are the ones standing alone: a big oak in the front yard, a sycamore in the middle of a pasture, a shade tree beside a farmhouse with nothing around it to break the gust. When those trees go, they tend to go whole, root plate and all, and land across a roof, a fence or the drive. In winter, ice and heavy wet snow snap pine tops and oak limbs over driveways and farm roads instead.
Emergency tree removal along US-11W adds a traffic problem to the storm. The highway through Surgoinsville is busy and fast, and a tree across a driveway apron or leaning toward the road needs a safe truck setup and traffic control before anyone starts cutting. Off the highway, long gravel drives toward the Holston and Phipps Bend may be the only way in or out, and soft bottomland can bog down equipment after heavy rain. We plan around both. Please do not cut storm-bent trees yourself, since a trunk under tension can spring or roll without warning.
Calls to Kingsport Tree Removal from Surgoinsville are answered around the clock, and we send a crew as soon as conditions are safe. If a line is down or a tree is touching one, stay clear and call your power company first, because the utility has to make it safe before our crew can work. When you reach us, tell us whether you are on 11W or a back road, what the tree is resting on and how long the drive is. We are locally owned and operated and work throughout western Hawkins County, and once the danger is handled we plan the rest of the cleanup with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
A tree fell across my driveway right at US-11W in Surgoinsville. Who handles the part near the road?
Trees near the highway may involve state right-of-way, and anything lying in the road itself is usually a matter for highway crews. On your property, we cut and clear the tree with a safe truck setup and traffic control as needed. If anything is touching a power line, call your power company before anyone approaches it. We can tell you on site which parts appear to be your responsibility.
Can your crew reach a downed tree at the end of a long gravel drive near the Holston?
Usually, yes. Long gravel drives toward the river are common in Surgoinsville, and we plan how to get a truck and chipper in before we head out. After heavy rain, soft bottomland may limit where equipment can go, so we may cut the tree where it lies and carry or winch pieces to firm ground. Tell us about the drive when you call so we can bring the right gear.
Should I try to cut a storm-damaged tree myself?
No. Trees broken by wind or ice are loaded in ways that are hard to see, and a single cut can release a trunk or limb with enough force to cause serious injury. Leave it alone, keep children and pets back, and stay well away from any wires the tree is touching. Call your power company about the lines first, then call us, and our crew will handle the cutting from there.
What counts as a tree emergency?
A tree emergency is any situation where a tree or limb is threatening people, a home or access right now. Examples include a tree on a roof, a trunk blocking your only driveway, a cracked tree leaning toward the house after a storm, or a large limb hanging loose over a walkway or play area. If you are not sure how urgent it is, call us and describe it, and we will help you decide.
