Storm Damage Tree Removal

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. 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.

Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Even though they’re usually considered as being solid and timeless, trees can certainly end up being defenceless in extreme weather conditions such as storms & strong winds. Intense storms and high winds have been known to wipe out trees and tear even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times following a storm have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger & inconvenience it also will cause expensive restorations.

The most difficult option after a windstorm is not how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much simple. The more difficult choice is if any of the trees still upright are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been partly damaged in the windstorm may present a possible future hazard and might have to be cut down and took out to prevent putting property and people in danger in many months or even years ahead.

Other trees maybe saved by being pruned back, with their most affected sections being ‘amputated’ much like how a surgeon would take off a gangrenous limb. Others will require to be staked down with guy cables or supported with various other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree contractors can be relied upon to remove the injured trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building crews easy access to the building to start restorations on the affected structures and power lines.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Every one of these types of problem creates a different diagnosis for the trees’ long term survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more likely to fail to notice a small detail that could differentiate one decision from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which signifies that the roots also failed.

There are essentially six types of storm damage which a tree can not normally sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the earth, causing the trees crown to fall or sag strongly even though the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree snap below the earth, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging noticeably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This occurs most commonly on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The full crown basically becomes a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can not.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening strikes have a many additional effects like 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 considerably higher danger to drop despite the fact that it endured the original windstorm.
