Storm and tree damage in Springfield
Arborists and roofers for storm damage.
15 pros in Springfield
Springfield sits in the path of the EF3 tornado that the National Weather Service confirmed on June 1, 2011, which ran from Westfield to Charlton and left a continuous damage path of approximately 39 miles. That history is a reason to take storm and tree damage seriously here, and it also means you should know the city's rules before anyone cuts a tree. Springfield's tree ordinance, City Code Chapter 368, was updated by the city council on March 18, 2024. It keeps the existing protection for significant trees and sets fines for violations. Before you hire for tree removal, storm clean-up or roof repairs, ask whether the tree is a significant tree and who is responsible for checking the ordinance. Ask for the scope of work, the haul-away and stump terms, and proof of insurance in writing. If a storm has left a tree on a roof or near wires, keep clear of the area and ask any crew how they will handle utility lines before work starts.

What to know in Springfield
The National Weather Service confirmed an EF3 tornado on June 1, 2011 that ran from Westfield to Charlton, in Hampden and Worcester Counties. It reported a continuous damage path of approximately 39 miles.
Eversource says generators of any size should be installed by a licensed electrician and connected to the home's wiring through a special transfer switch. It says an improperly installed generator can back-feed into its electrical lines and endanger utility line technicians.
Eversource says a generator should always be run outdoors and as far from the house as possible, away from doors, windows and air vents. It also recommends a carbon monoxide detector in the home.
Before you hire
For a tree near power lines, call your utility first: only a utility-certified arborist should work within 3 m of the wires.
Ask which permits the job needs and who will get them; your municipal building department can tell you before work starts.
Ask about liability insurance and workers’ compensation cover before anyone works on your roof or property.
Questions about hiring in Springfield
Do I need to check anything before removing a tree in Springfield?
Yes. Springfield's tree ordinance, City Code Chapter 368, was updated on March 18, 2024 and keeps the existing protection for significant trees. It also sets fines for violations. Before work starts, ask the city whether your tree is covered, and ask your contractor who is responsible for that check. WAMC Northeast Public Radio (source, opens in a new tab)
What should a tree or storm clean-up quote include?
Ask for a written quote that names the address, the trees or limbs involved, and the work to be done. It should say whether debris haul-away, stump grinding and clean-up are included, list any permit steps, show proof of insurance, and give a start date and a payment schedule.
How do I compare quotes from different tree services?
Request the same scope from each company in writing, so the quotes match line by line. Compare what is included, such as haul-away, stump work and insurance, plus timing and payment terms. A very short quote with few details is a reason to ask more questions.
Can I clear snow from my roof myself?
Massachusetts guidance says to use a snow rake on pitched roofs and to leave 2 or 3 inches of snow rather than scraping the roof clean. It says not to stand on the roof or place heavy equipment on it unless a registered professional engineer approves. Keep ladders and rakes away from utility wires.
