Safety First:
During Storm Clean Up and Emergency Repairs
Word from our mates at Energex is that you really need to watch your step when you’re cleaning up after a storm. You see, power lines can be all hidden under the debris, still live and posing a real electrical risk. This is especially critical after wild weather events with destructive winds that can bring down power infrastructure.
Don’t even think about:
- touching or moving any debris near power lines
- trying to move or touch big fallen trees without proper gear
- messing with structures that could fall over
- trawling through flooded areas
- attempting emergency repairs near electrical hazards
If you spot any fallen power lines, get out of there and call Energex right away on 13 1962. We’re trained to spot these sorts of hazards and work around them safely. The Insurance Council regularly issues news and safety reminders after severe thunderstorms hit Brisbane, reinforcing the importance of professional storm damage assessment before beginning any clean up work.

Storm Clean Up FAQs
How fast can you respond to storm damage?
We get to emergency storm clean up jobs as soon as possible, usually the same day or next day. The sooner you get in touch with us, the sooner we can get to you when we’re next available. During peak wild weather seasons or after severe thunderstorms hit multiple areas, response times may vary, but we always prioritise emergency situations.
What if I have a tree across my house or fence?
If the tree has caused major structural damage, you may need an arborist to come and make the area safe first. Once that’s sorted, we can get the crew in to clear the debris. This is particularly important after damaging winds from tropical cyclone systems. If you need help finding someone to make the area safe before emergency repairs begin, we can give you some recommendations.
Do you do work on weekends and public holidays?
We don’t take a break when the weather does, we work seven days a week, including public holidays, because you need help when you need it most. Wild weather doesn’t follow a nine-to-five schedule, and neither do we.
Who's responsible for repairs and insurance after a storm knocks stuff out?
It depends on the type of property and insurance plan you have. For body corporate properties, it’s usually up to the majority of owners or the committee to authorise spending on repairs and maintenance, especially if the costs are high or need special approval. The Insurance Council provides regular news updates and guidance on storm damage claims. We recommend contacting your insurer as soon as possible after storm damage occurs.
What about damage from tropical cyclones or super typhoons?
While super typhoons typically weaken before reaching Brisbane, we occasionally experience the remnants of these powerful systems, as well as tropical cyclone effects. These events can bring destructive winds and severe thunderstorms that cause widespread damage. Our team is experienced in handling clean up from all types of wild weather events, no matter how severe.
