Should I trim trees before a roof replacement in Washington Township?

Yes. Overhanging limbs scrape shingles, drop debris into valleys and gutters, and shade roofs so they stay wet. We recommend trimming anything within ten feet of the roof. Doing the tree work first gives the roofing crew clear access and keeps branches from rubbing on new shingles. Schedule the tree service, let them finish cleanup, then book the roof replacement.

Does homeowners insurance cover tree removal in Michigan?

It depends on your policy and why the tree is coming down. Many homeowners policies help pay to remove a tree that falls on the house, garage or another covered structure during a storm, usually subject to the deductible and a limit. Removing a healthy or dying tree before it falls is usually treated as maintenance and is not covered. Read your policy, call your insurer before work starts, and ask the tree service for photos and an itemized estimate.

Does Roofing Army remove trees?

No. Roofing Army does roofing only and does not remove or trim trees. For tree work, the companies on this list handle removal, trimming and stump grinding. Michigan does not license tree services, so ask for a certificate of liability and workers' compensation before anyone climbs. Once the limbs are cleared, Roofing Army can inspect your roof for free in Washington Township and check for damage from branches or debris.
