A trunk or major limb resting on the roof, punched through it, or hung up on the gutter and eave. Inside: ceiling stains spreading, drywall sagging or popped nails, doors and windows that suddenly won't latch, daylight visible in the attic, displaced shingles. The tree often looks completely settled and still — that appearance is not information.

Your roof is now carrying a load it was never engineered for, and the tree has become part of the building's load path — in many cases it is the only thing holding damaged framing in position. That is why the removal has to be sequenced rather than just cut off. Separately, the interior damage keeps advancing from water long after the tree stops moving.
This is normally a emergency tree service job, which around here runs $500 to $3,500 depending on size and access. Treat that as a range, not a quote — nobody can price it without seeing it.
