Insurance claim guidance
Coverage hinges on whether the tree hit an insured structure. If yes, your homeowner policy typically pays for tree removal, debris haul, and repair of the structure (subject to deductible). If the tree fell in the yard without hitting anything, removal is usually the homeowner's expense. We work directly with adjusters and provide all required documentation.
What does insurance cover?
Coverage varies by problem type and policy. This is the typical pattern for TN homeowner policies - your specific policy may differ. We provide adjuster-ready documentation either way.
| Problem type | Removal covered? | Repair of structure covered? | Coverage exclusion risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| Storm Damage Tree Removal | Usually yes when a tree hit a covered structure | Yes, subject to deductible | Not if you knew the tree was dead or diseased pre-storm |
| Fallen Tree Removal | Yes if it hit a structure. No if it fell in the yard alone. | Yes if the structure was insured | Not if the tree was a known hazard pre-fall |
| Dead Tree Removal | No - preventative removal is homeowner expense | N/A (preventative) | If a known dead tree later falls, claim may be denied |
| Diseased Tree Removal | No - homeowner pays for diseased-tree removal | N/A (preventative) | Documented disease before a failure can void coverage |
| Leaning Tree Removal | No - preventative removal is homeowner expense | N/A (preventative) | Documented lean before a fall can void coverage |
General guidance only - not legal or insurance advice. Call your carrier to confirm your specific coverage.
Secondary damage we commonly see
- roof structural damage where the tree impacted
- fence and gate damage from fall path
- underground utility damage from root ball upheaval
