First steps — gate incident
Cut power to the gate opener at the disconnect before anyone approaches — damaged openers can cycle unexpectedly. Rope off the area if the gate is on a shared drive.
What Madison Park calls typically look like
Madison Park sits in Central Seattle and is characterized by large lakeside trees and mature landscape conifers. During Puget Sound windstorms — especially November through February — saturated soils and hard south winds combine to bring down big trees. Calls like “tree fell on my gate” spike in these windows.
Insurance angle
Gates and openers fall under 'other structures' on most homeowners policies. Confirm the sublimit — automatic gates often exceed basic coverage caps.
Ask any contractor for proof of current license and general liability insurance before work begins on your Madison Park property, and confirm coverage details with your homeowners insurance carrier. This is standard consumer guidance for any tree job.
