Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

If you have and fallen trees or any damaged trees from a storm or lightning, you should call a qualified tree surgeon. 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 have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Though they’re usually taken as being really solid and timeless, trees can become defenceless in extreme weather like storms & strong winds. Intense storms and high winds have been known to wipe out trees and uplift even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times shortly after a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger & inconvenience it also may lead to costly repairs.

The hardest decision after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that’s fairly simple. The tougher choice is if any of the trees left upright are salvageable.

Various trees that have been moderately injured in the storm may present a future hazard and may have to be disassembled and disposed of to avoid placing property and people in danger in months or even years in the future.

Other trees can be saved by being pruned back, with their worst injured sections being ‘severed’ exactly like how a surgeon would amputate a gangrenous leg. Others will need to get staked with guy ropes or supported with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree specialists can be trusted to take away the damaged trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building and construction companies easy access to the property to begin restorations on the affected properties and power cables.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of damage creates a distinct diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, but making a prognosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more going to overlook a small detail that may well separate one decision from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that shows that the roots also failed.

There are essentially six types of storm damage that a tree can not generally sustain:

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, leading to the trees crown to come down or sag strongly whilst the lower section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree split beneath the earth, leading to the tree pitching or swinging considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This happens most typically on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The full crown effectively becomes a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting 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, at the moment. Lightening hits have a several additional effects like 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 despite the fact that it endured the initial storm.
