Storm Damage Tree Removal

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. 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. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact that they are usually viewed as being really sturdy and timeless, trees may become at risk in extreme weather conditions such as storms and strong winds. Violent storms and strong winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the ground, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

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

The most difficult option following a windstorm is not how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that’s more or less straightforward. The harder choice is if any of the trees left upright are salvageable.

Some trees that have been in part affected in the storm may present a potential threat and may need to be chopped down and removed to prevent putting people & property at risk in several months or years in the future.

Other trees can be conserved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected sections being ‘severed’ similar to how a surgeon will take off a gangrenous limb. Others will need to get staked with guy cables or held up with additional supports 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 relied upon to take away the broken trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the construction companies access to the building to start maintenance and repairs on the damaged properties and power lines.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

Every one of these types of problem creates a different outlook for the trees’ future survival, but making a diagnosis is a task best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more likely to miss a small detail that may separate one conclusion from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which suggests that the roots also failed.

There are essentially 6 kinds of storm damage which a tree can not usually stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, leading to the crown to come down or to angle strongly even though the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree crack beneath the soil, leading to the tree bending or swinging dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays up. This takes place most typically on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The entire crown effectively ends up being a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, for now. 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 lightening-hit tree is always at a substantially higher risk to fall even though it endured the initial storm.
