Fallen Tree & Insurance question
In article ,
3rd eye wrote: I've got a neighbor whose tree branches fell on my garage busting up the gutter & who knows what else. Until the branches are removed I can't asses the damage This occured after a heavy snow. She's telling me her insurance won't cover it. Does this sound right? Yes, that's exactly right. Call _your_ insurance company. In 2003 high winds of a summer storm caused a (possibly) diseased Ash tree to split and fall on my house, with significant damage to my roof and back enclosed porch. The insurance co and its adjuster both said that, basically, once it's on your side of the fence, it's your tree, Insurance Co. was not pleased that I did not want to use their restoration contractor, which I'm sure gets some kind of kickback, instead of the contractor I've used for past repairs and work on the house. -- Chuck Reti Detroit MI |

Fallen Tree & Insurance question
In South Carolina, if my neighbor's tree falls on my house, it is my
problem, and my insurance company pays, even if the tree was diseased. It may be different where you are. Why are you asking here? We have no authority. Call your insurance company to get accurate advice for your area. Stretch |
