Storm Damage Tree Removal

If you have a fallen tree, or suspect that your tree has been damaged by lightning or a storm, it is a good idea to call a certified tree surgeon. Untrained individuals should not attempt to deal with a fallen tree as there are many objects that could be trapped underneath or around the tree, as well as any live power lines. 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 considered as being sturdy and everlasting, trees can end up being defenceless in adverse weather like strong winds and storms. Fierce storms and extreme winds have been seen to annihilate trees and uplift even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times shortly after a storm have you heard about dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. Apart from the danger & inconvenience it also will lead to costly renovations.

The hardest option following a storm isn’t specifically how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s more or less easy. The tougher decision is whether or not some of the trees remaining upright can be saved.

Certain trees that have been partially affected in the windstorm can pose a potential future threat and may well need to be cut down and disposed of to prevent putting people and property at risk in several months or even years ahead.

Some other trees could be conserved by being trimmed back, with their most cracked parts being ‘severed’ much like how an operating surgeon might amputate a gangrenous leg. Some other might need to get staked with guy ropes or held up with various other supports up until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree experts can be trusted to get rid of the injured trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the construction crews easy access to the building to begin restorations on the affected properties and power lines.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each of these sorts of problem causes a distinct diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however making a prognosis is a job best left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more likely to fail to notice a small detail that may well separate one conclusion from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that shows that the roots also failed.

There are essentially six types of storm damage that a tree can’t generally stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, leading to the trees crown to come down or to sag violently while the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree crack underneath the earth, leading to the tree leaning or swaying noticeably.
• 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 split, but stays standing. This occurs most frequently on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The complete crown essentially transforms into a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk can not.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening strikes have a number of additional effects like opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a much greater risk to drop even if it endured the initial windstorm.
