Emergency Tree Removal Services
Fast, Safe Response for Storm-Damaged & Dangerous Trees
Severe Highveld winds, heavy rain, lightning, and seasonal storms regularly damage trees across Johannesburg and Gauteng.
When a tree splits, uproots, or falls unexpectedly, the situation can quickly become dangerous — to people, homes, vehicles, power lines, and surrounding property.
Apex Tree Felling provides rapid-response emergency tree removal services across Randburg, Johannesburg, and Gauteng.
When Is It an Emergency?
Emergency tree situations include:
Trees fallen onto roofs, walls, or vehicles
Split or hanging limbs after storms
Uprooted trees leaning dangerously
Trees interfering with power lines
Structural collapse risk near homes or schools
Large branches blocking driveways or roads
These situations require immediate professional attention.
Why Emergency Tree Work Is High-Risk
Storm-damaged trees are unpredictable.
Internal cracks, tensioned branches, and unstable root systems create:
Sudden collapses
Unexpected branch release
Structural shifting
Severe injury risk
Attempting DIY emergency cutting can worsen damage or cause serious harm.

Assess structural stability
Secure the immediate danger zone

Dismantle safely using controlled techniques
Our goal is to stabilise the site before full removal.
