It went through our roof. Insurance paid completely to repair and replace all damage.
They couldn't get the tree off of the house for several hours because of the storm and there was water damage all the way to the basement. The entire roof needed to be replaced - including attic rafters.

Yes, in the long run insurance, for us, was worth the cost - those artificial turf fields, not so much.
