TREE REMOVAL DANGERS

There are dangers involved involving the equipment used in removing trees – It is a requirement of the OSHA that those who work in the tree removal profession, wear protective gear while working. It is also significant that tree removal specialist knows the proper way to use the equipment used for tree removal, and should have the proper training for wood chippers, chains, cranes, and saws, and if they do not a homeowner would not be able to remove trees from their property. To be on the safe side, homeowners need to have a professional do the tree removals for them because they have been trained to use the equipment for removing trees in a safe matter, and are experienced at it.

THE DANGERS OF POWER LINES – It is dangerous when removing trees that are near power lines. It is best to assume at all times the power lines may be live. Also, if you, one of the tools you are using, or a tree should hit a power line, it is possible to make the entire neighborhood lose their power. You are also taking a risk of being electrocuted. It is not true that the black installation on power lines protect you from being electrocuted, however, the truth is that the black coating is merely to protect the power lines from different types of weather.

THE DANGERS OF DYING TREES – Usually, when a tree dies it happens from the inside out, which makes the tree itself unstable. That is the reason that professionals use cranes when removing trees from your property. You should have a professional tree remover remove any dead or dying trees from your property and avoid the possibility of it collapsing on your home, or even your vehicle.

THE DANGERS OF TREES FALLING – Once a trees begins to fall there is no way to control where it is going to land, even when professionals use ropes and cut the indentations into the tree when removing it does not always pan out the way they plan it to. If the proper tools and equipment are not used there is a good chance that the tree could end up falling on vehicles, homes, and power lines.

TREE REMOVAL FAQ

IF A TREE FALLS ON MY HOUSE DOES MY HOMEOWNERS INSURANCE COVER IT?

Sometimes it takes just one powerful storm to topple what was once a solid, sturdy tree in your yard. And, once the storm is over, you may be wondering whether or not your homeowners insurance will help pay for the cost of removing the debris and branches, or repairing damage if the tree were to fall on your home. Even if your homeowner’s insurance policy includes coverage for fallen or downed trees, it usually depends on a number of factors, such as what caused the tree to fall and what is the resulting damage. Here are answers to some frequently asked questions about trees and insurance.

DOES MY HOMEOWNERS INSURANCE COVER DAMAGE CAUSED BY A DOWNED OR FALLEN TREES ON MY PROPERTY?

The answer to this question is, “It all depends on the situation.” A homeowner’s insurance policy usually protects your home and other structures, such as a detached garage or fence, against specific causes of loss, known as perils. Perils that are covered include damage usually caused by wind. So, the circumstances that caused the tree to fall play an important factor. Say the tree was otherwise healthy, and fell down due to wind. A typical homeowner’s policy may help pay to repair damage or remove fallen branches to your home or other structure on your property, according to the Insurance Information Institute (III).

On the other hand, homeowners insurance usually won’t cover a loss caused by a maintenance-related issue or negligence. So if the tree was unhealthy, rotting and ready to fall down before the storm, it would be very probable the homeowners insurance would not cover the damage the tree caused to your home or property.

WHAT IF THE TREE DOESN’T DAMAGE ANYTHING?

If a tree falls down and there is no structural damage to your home, meaning your house doesn’t need any repair, your homeowner’s insurance policy typically will not cover debris removal, according to the Insurance Information Institute (III).

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE TREE WAS NOT ON MY PROPERTY BUT ON MY NEIGHBOR’S PROPERTY?

If your home is damaged by your neighbor’s tree, the III says you’ll typically find that your homeowners insurance may help pay to repair the damage to your house (or other structure, if the tree falls on your fence, for example).

AM I RESPONSIBLE IF A TREE FROM MY PROPERTY DAMAGES MY NEIGHBOR’S PROPERTY?

You are commonly only considered responsible if carelessness on your part was a contributing factor to the tree’s falling. If not — say a windstorm knocked your healthy tree onto your neighbor’s house — your neighbor will likely have to file a claim through their own homeowners insurance.

DOES HOMEOWNERS INSURANCE COVER THE REMOVAL OF TREE DEBRIS?

According to the Insurance Information Institute, if the tree damaged your home, a homeowner’s insurance policy may help you cover the cost of repairing your house or other structures on your property, as well as removing the fallen tree branches. However, if the tree fell without causing any damage to a structure on your property, you may find that your homeowner’s insurance won’t cover the cost of removing the debris.

It’s important to remember that you’ll typically have to pay your deductible before your insurance will help pay for a covered loss. In addition, coverage limits will apply. Carefully read your insurance policy or contact your agent to learn what type of coverage, and how much coverage your policy provides for damages caused by a fallen tree.

HOW MUCH DOES TREE REMOVAL COST IN SCOTTSDALE?

The average cost of tree removal is $825. In 2018, the cost to remove a tree ranged from $150 to $1500.
