Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

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. 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 generally considered as being sturdy and timeless, trees may end up being vulnerable in extreme weather like storms and strong winds. Fierce storms and high winds have been known to wipe out trees and tear even the healthiest & sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times following a storm have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the danger & inconvenience it also will cause costly renovations.

The most difficult option following a storm isn’t how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty straightforward. The tougher choice is if some of the trees still upright can be saved.

Certain trees that have been partly injured in the storm may pose a potential threat and may well need to be disassembled and took out to prevent placing people & property in danger in months or years to come.

Other trees maybe saved by being pruned back, with their worst cracked sections being ‘severed’ just like how a surgeon will amputate a gangrenous limb. Others will need to be staked with guy cables or supported with various other supports up until they can re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree contractors can be relied upon to take away the damaged trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the construction teams access to the property to begin restorations on the damaged properties and power cables.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each one of these kinds of damage causes a varied prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a prognosis is a job best entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more liable to overlook a small detail that might just differentiate one conclusion from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which signifies that the roots also snapped.

There are generally six forms of storm damage which a tree can’t generally stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the ground, making the trees crown to fall or bend strongly even though the lower part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree crack below the ground, resulting in the tree leaning or swinging considerably.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays standing. This takes place most typically on trees with very unbalanced crowns. The entire crown essentially turns into a weather vane 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 standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a number of secondary effects including 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 substantially greater risk to fall despite the fact that it endured the initial storm.
