Storm Damage Tree Removal

If you have and fallen trees or any damaged trees from a storm or lightning, you should call a qualified tree surgeon. Because of the many objects and live power lines that may be underneath or around a tree it is dangerous for untrained people to attempt to approach them. The tree surgeons have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Even though they are generally viewed as being really sturdy and permanent, trees can certainly come to be defenceless in adverse weather such as storms & strong winds. Fierce storms and high winds have been seen to wipe out trees and uplift even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times shortly after strong winds have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the inconvenience and danger it also can cause costly restorations.

The hardest decision after a storm isn’t specifically how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s fairly simple. The more challenging choice is whether some of the trees left upright are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been partly injured in the windstorm may well present a potential future hazard and may well have to be cut down and removed to avoid putting people and property at risk in months or years ahead.

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

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree specialists can be trusted to take away the broken trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building and construction teams access to the property to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of problem creates a varied prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, however making a prognosis is a job best left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more likely to overlook a small detail that can differentiate one decision from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.

There are essentially six forms of storm damage that a tree can’t generally stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, making the trees crown to come down or to bend strongly even though the lower part stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree split underneath the soil, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays up. This occurs most typically on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The entire crown basically ends up being a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, for now. Lightening strikes 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 increased risk to fall even though it got through the original windstorm.
