The question you never want to think about as a homeowner:
Is your tree healthy enough to survive a severe storm? If your tree were to fall, will homeowner’s insurance cover tree loss or tree removal?
Is Tree Removal Covered by Home Insurance?
Many homeowners and renters’ insurance policies keep you covered if high winds, hail and other types of storms take down trees. Often, policies don’t cover tree claims if the tree falls but doesn’t damage your home or any structures, like a garage or fence.
Either way, there’s usually a clause. If a tree needed to be removed before a storm, you could be looking at an out-of-pocket expense.
How Can I Avoid Costly Tree Damage Insurance Claims?
Be proactive with your tree care and schedule regular tree inspections.
If you’re aware of the tree’s risk ahead of time, you have a better chance of preventing damage. Investing in the long term health of your trees will prevent higher costs down the line.
