Branch breaks and falls on building
A large stem broke and fell on the building in a storm.
Treatment: Hire an arborist to do this work. The stem needs to be cut using an appropriate reduction cut. The large wound resulting from this cut is likely to initiate decay at the pruning cut, especially on trees that compartmentalize decay poorly (See: list of trees).
