A tree through the roof, one accountable team.
A fallen tree turns your roof, your framing, and your ceiling into one problem — usually with the tree still sitting in it. TRC manages the opening protection, safe removal coordination, structural assessment, and rebuild under one accountable team.
The tree is still in the house — and so is the rain.
A tree through the roof is really three emergencies stacked together: a heavy object resting on compromised framing, a wide-open hole letting weather pour in, and a structure that may no longer be safe to stand under. Handle them in the wrong order and you make it worse — pull the tree carelessly and the roof can drop further.
Most homeowners end up juggling a tree service, a roofer, and a contractor while the rain keeps falling. TRC coordinates the applicable property-protection scope and remains the point of contact. We assess and document structural damage.
What a tree strike does beyond the hole you can see.
A tree through the roof rarely stops at the shingles. These are the failures we check for before we rebuild.
Cracked or shifted rafters
The weight of a trunk can crack or push framing members out of line well beyond the visible impact point.
Sagging or bowed ceilings
A ceiling that dips or bows after the hit may mean the load path changed — a sign the structure needs assessment and documentation, not just a patch.
Water through every floor below
A wide roof opening lets rain travel down through insulation and walls into rooms far from where the tree landed.
Doors and windows that suddenly stick
Frames that jam after an impact can mean the structure shifted — which is why we confirm what is safe before work begins.
Secure it, remove it, assess it, rebuild it.
Our own crews handle emergency mitigation start to finish. For rebuilds, we manage every trade under one accountable team. We run securing through rebuild in order so nothing gets worse between steps.
We secure the opening first
Before the tree moves, we tarp and shrink-wrap what we safely can to slow the water coming in and stabilize the scene. We're typically on-site within 2 hours for emergencies.
We coordinate safe tree removal
We bring in tree removal and manage the lift so the trunk comes off without dropping the roof further — sequenced with our crew, not left to you to schedule.
We assess and document the structure
We assess and document structural damage. The work scope is project-specific.
We document the full loss
Photos, measurements, and a detailed scope from the first visit — covering the roof, the framing, and everything inside the tree touched — so your adjuster approves the whole repair.
We rebuild it like it never happened
TRC manages rafters, decking, shingles, drywall, and paint on one schedule. Our own crews handle emergency mitigation start to finish. For rebuilds, we manage every trade under one accountable team.
Tree-through-the-roof questions, honestly answered.
We coordinate the whole sequence: securing the opening, safe tree removal, and then the roof and structural repair. TRC remains your accountable point of contact throughout.
Coverage depends on the policy, cause, and resulting damage. We document the cause and full loss for carrier review. We bill your insurance directly.
Keep everyone clear of the damaged area and contact emergency services when there is immediate danger. We assess and document structural damage.
Please don't. A trunk resting on compromised framing can drop the roof further if it moves the wrong way. We sequence the removal so the roof is stabilized first — it's a lift, not a tug, and getting the order right is what keeps the damage from growing.
It ranges from a fast secure-and-dry-in the first day to a multi-week rebuild once the tree is out and the structure is assessed. After we document the loss, we give you a clear timeline and scope before any rebuild work starts.
