ICE STORM CAUSES DAMAGE IN NC


A+ TREE & CRANE ASSISTS IN ICE STORM DAMAGE CLEAN-UP & EMERGENCY TREE REMOVALS IN ALAMANCE, ORANGE, DURHAM COUNTIES, NC

March 10, 2014--Raleigh, NC: An ice storm that swept through North Carolina on the evening of March 6th and into the late afternoon on March 7th caused power outages, downed trees, and terribly slick road conditions. Ice and wind brought down trees on top of homes and power lines in many cities west of Raleigh, including Mebane, Hillsborough, Durham, and Chapel Hill, NC. 

We brought a large crane to Chapel Hill on the day of the storm.






                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      On the day of the storm, A+ Tree & Crane Services brought in a large crane to remove trees off the roof tops, placed tarps over the roofs of many of the houses to prevent water damage, and continued on to respond to emergency tree service calls from our customers. A+ Tree & Crane traveled west from Chapel Hill towards Mebane and Hillsborough, removing trees along the way while the freezing rain and snow continued to fall. The roads were littered with trees that had fallen under the weight of the ice. We cut trees off downed power lines and cleared some streets of downed trees and snow to get our cranes and truck crews in to the locations. When we arrived to an emergency call, we got to work using our grapple truck to remove trees from houses of one of our previous customers during the first day of the ice storm. 

When the storm finally cleared up, there was still plenty of tree work left to be done. Customers in Chapel Hill called to have fallen trees cut & removed from their homes, and we used a crane boom to remove some of these trees. The day after the storm, A+ Tree & Crane were able to bring out more tree service equipment in the calmer weather to remove trees from homes in Mebane.
