helped first. Then Category II conditions (trees broken on ground but not
affecting safety) will be handled and then Category III (trees with broken limbs
needing repair) will be handled. We move through the storm depending on
severity by stabilizing Category I first, not necessarily cleaning it all up but
recreating a safe environment and then move to the lesser categories. For this
reason final cleanup may take some time. It simply takes time to move through
all situations after a storm. We bill based on work done and therefore you may
receive bills for Category I, Category II, and Category III. That’s the most
organized way for us to approach this. Why are we telling you this? Well… it’s
that time of year when we New Englanders grit our teeth and cross our fingers.
Hopefully, this will show you how we respond to these situations and also
better enable you to explain situations to us should they arise. As usual,
preparation is extremely helpful. Therefore if you feel you have potential
problems, please let us know soon so that we can help minimize their effects
before a storm arises.

Storm Damage & Related Emergency Work
Every so often storms strike and cause havoc for all of us. Sometimes it
happens in the cold winter months and sometimes in the warmer weather.
While the contributing factors are often different, the two results are similar.
Danger, frustration and inconvenience abound. For these reasons we have
always felt that a comprehensive approach was needed. When emergencies
happen it reminds us of how a “MASH” military unit or FEMA would respond.
First, an appraisal is needed-how bad are the conditions? Next, how do we
respond? We categorize conditions after storms. Some of you may recall
during our last hurricane we asked questions like ‘is there imminent danger to
you (a tree on the house or restricting emergency equipment)? Are there
power lines down? Are there tree limbs broken and while not yet fallen, are they
ready to fall on house or garage?
