It starts with a loud crack you weren’t expecting. Maybe it was a wild storm, maybe it was just time — either way, you’ve got a tree down, and now it’s staring at your roof, fence, or backyard like it owns the place.
First things first: don’t panic. Fallen trees might feel like a disaster, but there’s a clear path to handling it — and we’ve got solutions for you every step of the way
Step 1: Safety First, Always
Before you do anything else, check to make sure everyone’s okay. That includes people, pets, and any slightly shocked neighbors. Stay clear of the tree (especially if it’s resting on anything important), and keep an eye out for any power lines — if you see any wires down, call your utility company immediately and stay far away.
Step 2: Snap Some Pics
If it’s safe, grab your phone and take a few photos of the damage — the fallen tree, anything it hit, and the general scene. Your future self (and your insurance company) will be happy you did.
Step 3: Call Your Insurance Company
Once things have settled a bit, it’s time to get your homeowners insurance involved. They’ll walk you through what’s covered, how claims work, and whether someone needs to come out and assess the damage.
