Tree Insurance Scenarios, Explained

TREE INSURANCE SCENARIOS, EXPLAINED

A second question I get is, “Will I get reimbursed for all of the tree service cost?”

Trees are like people: They have a lifespan. They grow and they die, often in dramatic fashion. When a tree falls on your house in Connecticut, you have a responsibility to hire a tree service immediately to protect the house from water damage and possible collapse. Under a typical homeowner’s policy, you also have right to compensation for the cost to preserve your property. Should you choose to file an insurance claim, all types of homeowners policies are designed to cover removal of fallen trees off of any permanent structure: including houses, garages, sheds, fences, and more. You also have a right to choose your contractor based on their reputation, training, and licensing, not just the lowest bidder. Now, I want to get into a couple interesting points that a lot of clients have questions about. At first, many clients think that because it was the neighbor’s tree that fell into their yard, their neighbor will then be responsible for its removal. In truth, if a tree falls into your yard in a windstorm, it is an “act of God,” and now, it is YOUR TREE. The neighbor might choose to help you out, but the tree is now totally yours.
