Stay Covered: Tree Services That Meet Insurance Requirements

Last Updated 7/9/2025 • Posted in Tree Health & Safety, Choosing the Right Tree Company

At Earnest Tree Service, we do more than cut trees, we solve problems that impact your safety, property, and even your insurance. Lately, many homeowners have contacted us after their insurance companies warned them to trim or remove trees or risk losing coverage.

Why Insurance Companies Care About Your Trees

Insurers are cracking down on trees that hang too close to homes. Overhanging limbs can:

  • Damage roofs and siding

  • Create safety hazards during storms

  • Increase liability for falling branches

If your trees are flagged, prompt trimming may be the only way to keep your policy active.

We’re Trained to Handle It

Our team is fully trained to perform this type of work safely and efficiently. Whether we use a bucket truck or climb (spike free to protect the tree), we’re equipped to access hard-to-reach branches without damaging your home or property.

Just recently, Mike from our team used the bucket truck to remove low-hanging limbs over a customer's roof — the exact type of service insurers now require.

What You Can Expect from Earnest Tree Service

When you call us, you get:

  • Skilled climbers and certified operators

  • Proper pruning techniques for long-term tree health

  • Safe work practices near structures, utilities, and fences

  • Fast response to urgent insurance-related jobs

Stay Covered and Safe
