Storm Damage Tree Removal

We recommend that you contact a professional tree surgeon to help you with any fallen trees or trees damaged from storms or lightening. Untrained persons should never attempt to deal with a tree that has fallen because of all the objects that might be under or around it and any live power lines. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they’re generally considered as being really solid and everlasting, trees can easily end up being at risk in extreme weather conditions such as strong winds and storms. Violent storms and very high winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the healthiest & sturdiest trees from the soil, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times following strong winds have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger & inconvenience it also will cause expensive repair work.

The hardest option after a windstorm isn’t how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that is more or less simple. The more challenging decision is if some of the trees still upright can be saved.

Certain trees that have been in part damaged in the windstorm might pose a potential future hazard and may well need to be chopped down and removed to prevent placing property and people in danger in many months or even years in the future.

Some other trees maybe preserved by being pruned back, with their most cracked sections being ‘amputated’ exactly like how a surgeon might amputate a gangrenous leg. Others may require to get staked down with guy wires or held up with other supports until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree experts can be relied upon to clear away the injured trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction teams access to the building to start repairs on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

Each of these kinds of damage creates an unique outlook for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a prognosis is a task ideally left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more liable to disregard a small detail that might just separate one decision from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which signifies that the roots also failed.

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

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, causing the crown to fall or sag strongly while the bottom part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree crack under the ground, leading to the tree bending or swinging considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays standing. This takes place most typically on trees with very unbalanced crowns. The entire crown ultimately turns into a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a lot of additional effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a much increased danger to fall even though it got through the original windstorm.
