How we work

Our Emergency Response Process

An emergency tree situation is stressful. Here's how we respond, what we prioritize, and how we make your property safe again as efficiently as possible.

Emergency tree service in Buffalo NY — storm response and fallen tree cleanup

Step-by-Step Emergency Tree Response

Buffalo and Western New York experience some of the most unpredictable tree-damaging weather in the country. Lake-effect snow events, ice storms, and sudden high-wind systems regularly bring trees down across neighborhoods in Cheektowaga, Amherst, Tonawanda, and West Seneca — often with very little warning. When a major storm moves through the region, our call volume spikes fast. Calling early gives us the best chance to get to you quickly. Our crew is local, our equipment is staged in the area, and we always prioritize by risk — trees on structures or blocking access come first.

The first priority in any emergency is safety — yours, your family's, and our crew's. When you call, we ask a few quick questions about the situation so we can dispatch the right equipment and crew. We triage by risk level: trees on occupied structures are handled first; clearance jobs and non-urgent removals are scheduled as quickly as possible after.

What to Do While You Wait

If a tree has fallen on your home, do not enter the damaged area. Structural damage may not be immediately visible, and there may be live wires if the tree hit utility lines. If you can do so safely, take photos for your insurance claim before any cleanup begins — documenting the damage in place is valuable. Call your insurance company to start a claim if the damage is significant.

  • Stay clear of the fallen tree and any damaged area
  • Call 911 if there are power lines down or gas smells
  • Document damage with photos before cleanup
  • Contact your homeowner's insurance to start a claim
  • Then call us — we'll handle the tree safely

Working with Insurance After Storm Damage

Many homeowner policies cover storm-related damage to structures — including tree removal from roofs, garages, and other covered buildings. We can provide detailed written documentation of the damage and removal work to support your claim. Our crews have experience working alongside adjusters and know what documentation is typically required. We can't guarantee coverage — that's between you and your insurer — but we'll give you the paperwork you need.

For safety information about trees, storms, and power lines in New York, see guidance from National Grid and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.

    I highly recommend Buffalo Tree Soldiers! I had two small dead trees in my backyard, one of which had snapped at the base and was leaning against a healthy tree and my neighbor’s fence. It was a situation I didn’t feel comfortable handling myself, so I reached out to Buffalo Tree Soldiers. Roy responded quickly and came out the very same morning to assess the job. After inspecting the trees, he offered to take care of everything that same day. I was extremely happy to have the issue resolved so quickly and professionally. The service was excellent from start to finish. Roy was knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. The pricing was fair and affordable, and the work was completed safely and promptly. If you’re looking for fast, reliable, and professional tree service, Buffalo Tree Soldiers is the company to call. It’s refreshing to find a local company that delivers exactly what they promise.

    I had a massive Indian bean tree (Catalpa) in my backyard — approximately 75 feet tall and over 80 years old. The crew handled the entire removal with incredible precision, keeping my property and my neighbor's property completely damage-free. From start to finish, these guys were professional, efficient, and thorough. After completing the work, they went above and beyond by adding topsoil and reseeding my lawn — leaving everything cleaner than they found it. If you're in the Amherst/Buffalo area and need tree removal done right, look no further. Truly outstanding service! Very good job Roy and his team.. looking forward to work with you guys for my landscaping and other home improvements

    The Buffalo Tree Soldiers facilitated the process of a tree removal upon the start of the season for us. Roy Nagarasa’s representatives of The Buffalo Tree Soldiers presented the highest grade of work for the best prices on those consultations to us in Buffalo, New York. Their facilitation of the tree removal expedited the process of their installation of the fence to the point of its completion to ensure the preservation of our property in full. I’d recommend that clients contact The Buffalo Tree Soldiers for free estimates on their services in the future. They’re worthy of the highest reviews from us. Thanks, Buffalo Tree Soldiers!
