Available Around the Clock
24/7 Storm Damage Tree Removal You Can Count On
Storms in the Hampton Roads region don't follow a schedule, and neither do we. A Tree M.D. operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, specifically to respond to the kind of urgent tree situations that can't wait until morning. Fallen trees blocking driveways, limbs resting on rooftops, and split trunks leaning over fences are all time-critical hazards. Our team arrives with the advanced equipment and hands-on experience needed to remove the threat safely and efficiently. With 20 years of industry experience behind every job, owner Jay Van Houten leads a crew that treats every emergency call as a priority, not just another work order.
What We Handle
Full Emergency Tree Cleanup After Any Storm
From tropical storm season through winter ice events, Virginia Beach property owners face a wide range of storm-related tree hazards. A Tree M.D. is equipped to handle them all. Our emergency tree cleanup services cover hazardous limb removal, crane-assisted extraction of large fallen trees, debris clearing from structures and lawns, and complete lot cleanup after major weather events. We serve homeowners, property managers, and contractors throughout Virginia Beach, Norfolk, and Chesapeake. During large-scale disasters, we also extend our disaster relief services to surrounding areas across Virginia, providing help to communities in critical need.
Why It Matters
The Right Team for High-Risk Situations
Not every tree service is equipped for true emergency response. A Tree M.D. carries full insurance, including workers' compensation, and is fully licensed in Virginia. That matters when a crane is working over your roof or a crew is removing a limb suspended over a power line. We use crane-assisted removal plans for the most complex situations, combining professional planning with advanced equipment to get the job done without causing additional damage to your property. Our commitment is simple: we cut anything but corners. Every emergency job is handled with the same level of care and precision we bring to our standard work, because cutting corners in a high-risk situation is never an option.
Local and Ready

A Tree M.D. is a family-owned, local business based in Virginia Beach. Because we operate close to home, we can respond quickly when you need urgent tree service after a storm. We know the neighborhoods, the tree species common to the area, and the kind of storm damage that coastal Virginia weather produces. That local knowledge makes a real difference when time is short and the situation is dangerous. Whether you're a homeowner dealing with a fallen oak or a property manager handling storm cleanup across multiple sites, you can count on A Tree M.D. to show up, get the work done right, and leave your property clean and safe.
Common Questions
Emergency Tree Service: What You Need to Know
  • How quickly can A Tree M.D. respond to a storm damage emergency in Virginia Beach?

    A Tree M.D. operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with a focus on rapid response for time-critical situations. Because the business is based in Virginia Beach and primarily serves the local area, the team can mobilize quickly after a storm. Response times will vary depending on the scale of a regional weather event, but every emergency call is treated as a priority. During major disasters, the crew may be managing multiple critical situations at once, but the goal is always to reach you as fast as safely possible.
  • Does A Tree M.D. handle tree emergencies from hurricanes and ice storms, not just wind damage?

    Yes. A Tree M.D. provides emergency response for a full range of weather events, including hurricanes, tornadoes, and ice storms. The Hampton Roads region is vulnerable to all of these, and the team is equipped to handle the different types of damage each storm produces. Ice storms, for example, can cause limb splitting and sudden structural failures that are just as dangerous as a direct wind strike. The crew is trained and equipped to assess and address hazardous conditions regardless of what caused them.
  • Is A Tree M.D. insured for emergency work involving cranes and heavy equipment near my home?

    A Tree M.D. carries comprehensive insurance, including workers' compensation, and holds a Virginia business license. This coverage applies to all work, including high-risk emergency jobs that involve crane-assisted removal near structures. Hiring a fully insured team is especially important during emergency situations, where the risk of additional property damage is elevated. Working with an uninsured contractor in these circumstances can leave a property owner personally liable for any incidents that occur during the job.
  • What areas does A Tree M.D. cover for emergency and disaster relief services?

    For standard emergency tree service, A Tree M.D. primarily serves Virginia Beach, Norfolk, and Chesapeake. During large-scale disaster events such as hurricanes or widespread storm systems, the team extends its disaster relief services to surrounding areas across Virginia. The company's focus on the local Hampton Roads area is intentional, as it allows for faster response times for the communities the team knows best. For major regional crises, the firm scales its operations to reach those in critical need.
  • Can A Tree M.D. remove a tree that has fallen onto my roof or is leaning against my house?

    Yes. Removing trees that have fallen onto or are leaning against structures is one of the most common and most urgent types of emergency work A Tree M.D. handles. These situations require careful planning and crane-assisted removal techniques to extract the tree without causing further damage to the structure. The team assesses each situation before beginning work and develops a removal plan that prioritizes safety for both the crew and the property. This is precisely the kind of high-stakes job where experience and proper equipment make the most difference.
  • Will my yard be left in good condition after an emergency tree removal?

    A Tree M.D. is committed to minimizing disruption to your property during and after every job, including emergency removals. The team works to leave the site as clean and orderly as conditions allow, with a focus on complete debris removal and protecting the surrounding lawn and landscaping. While emergency situations sometimes involve more complex site conditions than routine jobs, the same care and respect for your property applies regardless of the circumstances.
