Because of the many objects and live power lines that may be underneath or around a tree it is dangerous for untrained people to attempt to approach them. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact they are often viewed as being really sturdy and eternal, trees may come to be at risk in extreme weather conditions like strong winds and storms. Intense storms and very high winds have been seen to annihilate trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times following a storm have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it additionally may lead to costly repair work.

The most difficult decision after a storm is not specifically how to remove the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is fairly easy. The more challenging decision is whether any of the trees still upright can be saved.

Certain trees that have been partly harmed in the storm might present a possible future risk and may need to be cut down and disposed of to avoid putting people and property in danger in many months or years in the future.

Some other trees could be saved by being trimmed back, with their most damaged sections being ‘severed’ just like how an operating surgeon might take off a gangrenous leg. Some other may need to get staked down with guy wires or held up with additional supports up until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on buildings, our tree experts can be relied upon to get rid of the affected trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building and construction companies easy access to the building to start repair work on the damaged structures and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of problem results in a distinct diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, but forming a prognosis is a task ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to disregard a small detail that may well separate one decision from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which reveals that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially 6 forms of storm damage which a tree can not generally stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the earth, resulting in the crown to fall or to angle strongly while the bottom part stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree crack beneath the earth, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging noticeably.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays standing. This happens most typically on trees with very lopsided crowns. The entire crown ultimately ends up being a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a many secondary effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a much increased risk to drop even if it survived the initial storm.
