Do this first
- Get everyone away from the tree and anything it touches.
- If a line is involved, call the utility; Appalachian Power takes hazard calls at 800-956-4237.
- Photograph the tree and the damage before anything is moved.
- Call your insurer; Angi notes your insurer may want to see the damage before the tree is removed.
Insurance

Why storm work costs more
