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 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.

Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact that they are generally viewed as being strong and permanent, trees can easily come to be defenceless in adverse weather conditions such as strong winds & storms. Fierce storms and extreme winds have been seen to annihilate trees and tear even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

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

The toughest decision following a storm is not specifically how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is pretty much easy. The more difficult choice is if any of the trees remaining standing can be saved.

Certain trees that have been moderately injured in the windstorm may present a potential future risk and might have to be chopped down and disposed of to prevent placing property & people in danger in months or even years in the future.

Some other trees might be preserved by being pruned back, with their worst affected sections being ‘cut off’ exactly like how an operating surgeon might take off a gangrenous leg. Some other might need to get staked down with guy wires or held up with other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree experts can be trusted to clear away the damaged trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction crews access to the property to begin restorations on the affected structures and power cables.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

All of these types of damage leads to an unique prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a prognosis is a job best left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to miss a small detail that may well separate one verdict from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that indicates that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially 6 sorts of storm damage that a tree can not generally sustain:

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, resulting in the crown to fall or angle strongly whilst the bottom part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree snap beneath the soil, leading to the tree leaning or swaying dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays standing. This takes place most typically on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The whole crown ultimately transforms into a weathervane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a several secondary effects including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a substantially increased danger to fall despite the fact that it made it through the original windstorm.
