Tree Surgeon Westfield

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. 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. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Managing Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they are generally considered as being really strong and eternal, trees can certainly become defenceless in adverse weather conditions like strong winds and storms. Powerful storms and very high winds have been known to annihilate trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times shortly after strong winds have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the inconvenience and danger it also may cause expensive repair work.

The hardest decision after a storm isn’t how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is fairly easy. The more difficult possibility is if any of the trees remaining upright are salvageable.

Various trees that have been moderately injured in the windstorm might present a future risk and may have to be cut down and took away to prevent placing people and property at risk in many months or even years ahead.

Other trees maybe preserved by being pruned back, with their most cracked sections being ‘amputated’ just like how a surgeon will take off a gangrenous leg. Others will need to be staked with guy wires or supported with additional supports until they can re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree experts can be trusted to get rid of the injured trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the building crews easy access to the building to start restorations on the damaged buildings and power lines.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of problem causes a different outlook for the trees’ potential survival, but forming a prognosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more going to disregard a small detail that may well differentiate one conclusion from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which shows that the roots also snapped.

There are generally 6 types of storm damage which a tree can’t usually stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, leading to the trees crown to come down or to bend violently whilst the bottom section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree crack under the soil, leading to the tree leaning or swinging dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays standing. This happens most commonly on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The full crown ultimately ends up being a weathervane in a storm, turning to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk can not.
• 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 higher risk to drop despite the fact that it endured the original windstorm.
