A 60mph thunderstorm rolls through Parma. A 50-year-old maple snaps and lands on your roof. The power is out, water is leaking through the ceiling, and a tangle of branches and live wires blocks your driveway. This is the moment our emergency crew was built for.

What to Do (And Not Do) During a Tree Emergency
✅ Do This First
- Get yourself, your family, and pets a safe distance from the tree (at least the tree's full height + 10 feet)
- Stay out of damaged structures until inspected
- If power lines are involved, call your utility company (FirstEnergy: 1-888-LIGHTSS)
- Take photos for insurance documentation
- Call Parma Tree Service: (440) 555-0142
❌ Don't Do This
- Never approach a tree touching power lines — assume all downed lines are live
- Don't try to cut a damaged tree yourself, especially one under tension
- Don't enter a structure with major roof damage until it's evaluated
- Avoid using chainsaws in wet, dark, or unstable conditions
