Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

If you have and fallen trees or any damaged trees from a storm or lightning, you should call a qualified tree surgeon. Untrained persons should never attempt to deal with a tree that has fallen because of all the objects that might be under or around it and any live power lines. Tree surgeons are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Though they are typically considered as being really sturdy and timeless, trees can easily end up being vulnerable in extreme weather like storms and strong winds. Intense storms and very high winds have been seen to annihilate trees and uplift even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times after a storm have you heard about dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the danger and inconvenience it also may lead to expensive restorations.

The hardest option after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is pretty much straightforward. The more difficult decision is if any of the trees still upright are salvageable.

Various trees that have been partly affected in the storm may well pose a potential threat and may well need to be disassembled and disposed of to prevent placing people & property at risk in many months or years to come.

Other trees could be saved by being pruned back, with their worst injured parts being ‘amputated’ similar to how a surgeon might remove a gangrenous leg. Some other will need to get staked down with guy ropes or supported with additional supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree specialists can be relied upon to get rid of the damaged trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building companies easy access to the property to start repair work on the affected properties and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each one of these kinds of problem results in a different outlook for the trees’ future survival, however forming a diagnosis is a task best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more likely to overlook a small detail that might just differentiate one decision from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that suggests that the roots also failed.

There are essentially 6 sorts of storm damage that a tree can’t typically sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, making the trees crown to fall or angle strongly while the bottom part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree break underneath the earth, resulting in the tree bending or swaying significantly.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This happens most commonly on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The complete crown effectively turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, for now. Lightening strikes have a several secondary effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a substantially increased danger to fall even though it survived the original storm.
