What to look at first

When a tree hits a structure, the first priorities are people, utilities, structural risk, and documentation. A clear request should explain what the tree hit, whether anyone is in danger, and whether wires or access are involved.

  • Whether anyone is inside or near the damaged area
  • Power lines, gas lines, roof damage, blocked doors, or fire access issues
  • Tree size, broken limbs under tension, and whether the trunk is still attached
  • Access for emergency responders, insurance documentation, and debris removal
  • Weather, darkness, and whether additional limbs could fall

Sacramento notes

  • Call emergency services first if there is immediate danger.
  • Contact the utility before approaching any tree or limb touching power lines.
  • Take photos only from a safe distance for insurance and estimate context.

Common questions

Should I cut branches off a tree that landed on my roof?

No. Limbs can be loaded with tension and may shift suddenly. Stay clear and get emergency guidance when a structure or utility is involved.

What information should I send first?

Send the address or neighborhood, what the tree hit, whether people or utilities are at risk, and safe-distance photos if available.

Can cleanup happen before insurance photos?

That depends on safety and insurance needs. If safe, document damage before cleanup, but do not delay emergency response for documentation.
