Most insurance policies do not cover storm damage to trees, or pay for these trees to be removed. I know this because Isabel knocked over the only tree I owned last summer. Luckily? it fell on power and phone lines so those people cut it up ans hauled it away. I still ahve the uprooted stump as a memento.

Good luck getting the repairs done.

This may depend on the circumstances. If the tree must be removed to allow repairs or is now a hazard to insured property, the insurance may well cover the removal.
