Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

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

Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Although they’re usually seen as being really sturdy and permanent, trees may end up being defenceless in adverse weather conditions like storms & strong winds. Intense storms and strong winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times following a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger & inconvenience it additionally can lead to costly repair work.

The most difficult decision after a windstorm isn’t how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty straightforward. The more difficult possibility is if some of the trees still standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been in part damaged in the windstorm can present a potential hazard and might have to be cut down and disposed of to avoid putting property and people in danger in months or even years ahead.

Some other trees maybe saved by being trimmed back, with their most cracked parts being ‘cut off’ just like how a surgeon may amputate a gangrenous limb. Others will require to be staked down with guy wires or supported with various other supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they need to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on property, our tree contractors can be relied upon to clear away the affected trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building and construction teams access to the building to begin repairs on the damaged buildings and power lines.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of problem results in a distinct diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job best left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more liable to fail to notice a small detail that may well differentiate one verdict from another, such as noticing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.

There are basically 6 forms of storm damage that a tree can not typically stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, resulting in the trees crown to come down or angle strongly while the bottom part stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree crack below the earth, leading to the tree bending or swinging dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays up. This happens most frequently on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The entire crown effectively turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, 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 up, for now. Lightening hits have a number of secondary effects such as 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 risk to fall even if it survived the initial windstorm.
