We have a building insured under the CP 00 10 Building & Personal Property form, with the CP 10 30 Cause of Loss Form, edition 04 02. A tree/bush took root in the wall of the building near a downspout. The root has grown through the middle of the exterior wall of brick. The loss was discovered when the outer portion of the brick wall gave way, and fell to the ground.
