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. 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 have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they are often considered as being solid and everlasting, trees can certainly come to be vulnerable in adverse weather such as storms and strong winds. Intense storms and extreme winds have been known to wipe out trees and tear even the healthiest & sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them crashing to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times soon after a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it additionally may cause costly repairs.

The most difficult option after a windstorm is not specifically how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty much easy. The more challenging decision is if some of the trees left standing are salvageable.

Some trees that have been in part injured in the windstorm can pose a future hazard and might need to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid putting people & property at risk in months or years to come.

Other trees could be conserved by being trimmed back, with their worst injured parts being ‘amputated’ similar to how a surgeon will remove a gangrenous limb. Others may require to get staked down with guy wires or supported with various other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on buildings, our tree contractors can be relied upon to clear away the damaged trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the construction companies access to the property to start restorations on the affected structures and power cables.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each one of these kinds of problem leads to a distinct prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, however making a diagnosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more going to disregard a small detail that might separate one decision from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which indicates that the roots also failed.

There are basically 6 forms of storm damage which a tree can not usually endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, resulting in the trees crown to come down or lean strongly whilst the lower section continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree snap beneath the earth, leading to the tree leaning or swaying dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This takes place most typically on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The full crown essentially becomes a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting 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 up, for now. Lightening hits have a number of additional effects such as massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a much greater risk to drop even though it endured the original windstorm.
