A tree fell on my property. What now?
Hereโs what to do when a tree falls on your house:If a tree falls on and damages your house, contact your homeowners insurance. This is also true if a tree on your property falls on to a neighborโs house. If a tree falls on your property and isnโt a danger, then itโs likely youโll have to remove a tree on your own:Consider contacting a tree removal service. Power lines might have been damaged near the tree or the tree might be resting precariously on some unseen obstruction. Rule of thumb: If you would have to use a ladder to reach and remove tree limbs, that tree is too big for you to remove safely.
