What brings trees down in Pennsylvania

From 2016 through 2025 the National Weather Service logged 9,360 reports of damaging thunderstorm wind across Pennsylvania’s 67 counties, and 8,211 of them mention trees, limbs or branches.

FEMA’s National Risk Index rates the risk as relatively high or very high from hurricanes in 2 of 67; from ice storms in 6 of 67; from strong wind in 20 of 67; from tornadoes in 6 of 67 counties.

If a tree is on a power line, the call goes to the electric utility first. EIA lists 57 electric utilities with service territory here; each county page names the ones that serve it.

Who licenses tree work

We did not find a Pennsylvania state license that applies to tree work as such. That does not settle it for your address: cities and counties may license contractors or businesses. Before work starts, ask any company for a certificate of liability insurance and proof of workers’ compensation coverage.

Insurance questions

Whether a policy pays for a fallen tree, and how much, is in the policy itself, so the first call is to the insurer. The state regulator, the Pennsylvania Insurance Department, takes complaints about how a claim was handled. Insurance and fallen trees

What you will be asked

Where the tree is and what is under it or near it: the house, a power line, a car, a fence, the street.
Whether it is standing, leaning, split or already down, and since when.
Roughly how tall it is and how thick the trunk is at chest height. A guess is fine.
Whether a truck can get close, or the tree is in a back yard behind a fence or a narrow gate.
Whether there is damage your insurer should see, and whether you have called them yet.
The address, and whether you own the property or rent it.

It is not for: jobs, equipment, firewood, tree services looking for work, or a price quoted over the phone without anyone seeing the tree.
