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. 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 are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Dealing With Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact they’re typically viewed as being really sturdy and eternal, trees can end up being defenceless in extreme weather conditions such as strong winds and storms. Powerful storms and high winds have been known to decimate trees and tear even the healthiest and sturdiest trees from the soil, sending them crashing to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times shortly after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Apart from the danger and inconvenience it also will result in expensive renovations.

The toughest decision after a windstorm is not how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty easy. The tougher possibility is whether or not any of the trees remaining upright are salvageable.

Some trees that have been partly affected in the storm might pose a possible future hazard and might need to be cut down and took away to avoid placing people & property at risk in many months or years to come.

Some other trees may be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst damaged parts being ‘cut off’ much like how a surgeon may take off a gangrenous limb. Others may need to get staked with guy ropes or held up with various other supports until they can re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree contractors can be trusted to get rid of the injured trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building companies access to the property to begin repair work on the damaged structures and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of damage creates a varied diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a prognosis is a job best entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more going to miss a small detail that may differentiate one conclusion from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which signifies that the roots also snapped.

There are generally six kinds of storm damage which a tree can not usually endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the complete tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, leading to the crown to fall or to sag strongly whilst the bottom part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree snap under the ground, leading to the tree pitching or swinging noticeably.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This takes place most often on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The complete crown essentially turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can not.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a lot of 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 always at a much increased risk to drop even though it got through the initial storm.
