Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

If you are concerned about a tree that has fallen or has been damaged from lightning or a storm, we recommend calling a qualified tree surgeon. It is very dangerous for non-trained people to try and 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 are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they’re often considered as being really sturdy and eternal, trees can easily end up being defenceless in adverse weather conditions such as storms & strong winds. Intense storms and strong winds have been known to decimate trees and tear even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them crashing to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

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

The toughest option following a storm isn’t specifically how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much easy. The more challenging choice is if any of the trees still standing are salvageable.

Some trees that have been partly damaged in the storm may well present a possible future hazard and may well have to be disassembled and removed to avoid putting people & property in danger in many months or years in the future.

Other trees might be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected parts being ‘amputated’ just like how a surgeon might amputate a gangrenous limb. Some other might need to be staked down with guy ropes or held up with additional supports until they can re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on property, our tree specialists can be trusted to remove the injured trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the building teams easy access to the property to start maintenance and repairs on the damaged structures and power cables.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each one of these types of problem causes an unique prognosis for the trees’ future survival, but forming a diagnosis is a job best entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more liable to disregard a small detail that might separate one decision from another, such as noticing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that suggests that the roots also snapped.

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

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the earth, leading to the trees crown to come down or angle strongly while the bottom section continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree tear beneath the earth, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This occurs most commonly on trees with extremely unbalanced crowns. The complete crown effectively transforms into a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can’t.
• 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 tree hit by lightening is always at a very much greater risk to drop even if it survived the original storm.
