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. Untrained individuals should not attempt to deal with a fallen tree as there are many objects that could be trapped underneath or around the tree, as well as any live power lines. Tree surgeons are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they’re often seen as being strong and permanent, trees can easily become defenceless in adverse weather such as strong winds & storms. Violent storms and strong winds have been seen to annihilate trees and tear even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the inconvenience and danger it also may result in costly restorations.

The hardest decision after a storm is not how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty straightforward. The more difficult decision is whether or not some of the trees still upright can be saved.

Various trees that have been moderately injured in the storm can present a future risk and may need to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid placing property & people at risk in several months or even years in the future.

Some other trees may be saved by being pruned back, with their most damaged parts being ‘amputated’ just like how a surgeon may take off a gangrenous leg. Some other might need to get staked with guy cables or supported with 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 experts can be relied upon to clear away the broken trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building and construction crews easy access to the property to begin repair work on the damaged properties and power cables.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of problem creates a different prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, however making a diagnosis is a task ideally left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more likely to miss a small detail that might just differentiate one conclusion from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which shows that the roots also snapped.

There are basically 6 sorts of storm damage which a tree can not usually endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, making the trees crown to come down or lean strongly whilst the lower section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree crack beneath the soil, resulting in the tree leaning or swinging significantly.
• Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays standing. This occurs most frequently on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The full crown basically transforms 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 strikes have a many additional effects like 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 very much higher danger to drop despite the fact that it made it through the original storm.
