Fort Bend County sits squarely in the Gulf Coast storm corridor. Tropical systems, squall lines, tornado warnings — we get all of it, and when they move through, trees come down.

What to Do After Storm Tree Damage in Katy

The storm passed. Now what? Here's the protocol:

Stay away from downed lines. If a tree or limb is touching a power line, treat it as energized. Don't approach it. Call CenterPoint Energy and then call us.
Document everything before anyone touches it. Photos and video of the damage before removal are essential for your insurance claim.
Call your insurance company. Start the claim process immediately. They'll tell you what documentation they need.
Call us: (281) 000-0000. We'll assess the damage, provide safe removal, and give you the written documentation your adjuster needs.
Don't attempt DIY removal of large debris. A fallen tree under tension can spring violently when cut wrong. This is how serious injuries happen. Let professionals handle it.

Fallen Tree on Your House — Steps to Take Immediately

If a tree landed on your structure, act quickly but carefully:

Assess structural risk before re-entering. If the roof is compromised or the structure is unstable, stay out until it's cleared.
Apply temporary weatherproofing. If you have a roof breach and more rain is coming, a tarp can prevent thousands in water damage while you wait for removal. We carry tarps on every storm truck.
Initiate your insurance claim right away. Your adjuster will want to see the tree before removal when possible — coordinate timing.
We provide written documentation of everything removed, the extent of structural contact, and the condition of the tree. This is what your adjuster needs.

See our 24/7 emergency tree service page for the full emergency protocol.

Will Insurance Cover Storm Tree Removal in Texas?

Here's the honest breakdown:

Tree lands on your house, car, or fence → Homeowner's insurance typically covers the removal cost
Tree falls in your yard with no structural damage → Most policies don't cover this; you pay out of pocket
Neighbor's tree falls on your property → Generally covered under your policy, not theirs

We've helped hundreds of Fort Bend County homeowners navigate this process. We provide detailed written documentation for your claim — and we've seen how much faster claims move when the paperwork is done right.

Protecting Your Property Before the Next Storm

The best storm response is a good pre-storm assessment. Trees with dead wood, poor structure, or disease are the first ones to fail in high winds. A pre-storm checkup by our ISA-certified arborist can identify hazard trees and problematic limbs before they become a problem.

📞 Schedule a pre-storm tree assessment: (281) 000-0000 🌐 Or request one online: /contact/

For professional tree removal of identified hazard trees before storm season, we can take care of that too.
