Can deal with a little hail damage as long as there's no broken glass. I've heard you can put chunks of dry ice on the hail dents and they will pop out. True or not, I don't know.
If Kevin's not experienced, it could be just as deadly. Chainsaw work is not for the inexperienced. At least have someone knowledgeable supervising. If there is limbs holding the trunk up off the ground, it can reach out and bite you.
