Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

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. Tree surgeons are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Though they’re usually seen as being really strong and permanent, trees can certainly become defenceless in extreme weather conditions like storms and strong winds. Intense storms and extreme winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times following strong winds have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the danger & inconvenience it additionally can result in costly restorations.

The toughest decision following a windstorm isn’t how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty much simple. The more challenging decision is if any of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been moderately affected in the windstorm can pose a potential future risk and might need to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid putting people & property in danger in months or years to come.

Other trees could be conserved by being trimmed back, with their most cracked sections being ‘cut off’ just like how an operating surgeon will remove a gangrenous limb. Others will require to be staked with guy cables 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 storm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree contractors can be trusted to clear away the affected trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the building and construction crews access to the building to begin repairs on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of damage creates a different prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, but forming a prognosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more going to disregard a small detail that may well separate one conclusion from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which suggests that the roots also snapped.

There are basically six types of storm damage which a tree can not usually endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, leading to the trees crown to fall or to angle strongly even though the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree crack below the soil, leading to the tree pitching or swinging significantly.
• Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This occurs most typically on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The entire crown basically turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can not.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a lot of additional effects such as opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a much higher risk to drop despite the fact that it got through the original windstorm.
