Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

If you have a fallen tree, or suspect that your tree has been damaged by lightning or a storm, it is a good idea to call a certified 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. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Dealing With Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact they’re generally taken as being sturdy and timeless, trees may become vulnerable in extreme weather like strong winds and storms. Fierce storms and high winds have been seen to wipe out trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times soon after strong winds have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the inconvenience and danger it additionally can cause expensive repairs.

The most difficult decision after a storm isn’t how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty much easy. The tougher decision is whether or not some of the trees still upright can be saved.

Various trees that have been moderately damaged in the storm might present a potential risk and may well have to be chopped down and removed to prevent placing people and property at risk in months or years in the future.

Other trees can be conserved by being pruned back, with their most damaged sections being ‘cut off’ much like how an operating surgeon would take off a gangrenous leg. Some other will require to be staked down with guy wires or held up with other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree experts can be relied upon to clear away the affected trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building and construction crews easy access to the building to start repairs on the affected buildings and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each one of these kinds of problem leads to a varied prognosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job ideally left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more liable to disregard a small detail that might separate one conclusion from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.

There are basically six types of storm damage that a tree can’t generally endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, causing the crown to come down or to lean strongly even though the lower part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree tear beneath the ground, leading to the tree pitching or swinging dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays up. This happens most often on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The full crown effectively becomes a weathervane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a many additional effects including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a considerably increased danger to drop even if it survived the initial storm.
