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. 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 have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Though they’re generally considered as being really strong and timeless, trees can easily end up being vulnerable in extreme weather such as storms and strong winds. Violent storms and very high winds have been seen to wipe out trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

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 inconvenience and danger it also will cause expensive repair work.

The most difficult option following a storm isn’t specifically how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is more or less easy. The harder decision is whether or not any of the trees still standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been partially injured in the storm may well present a potential threat and might need to be cut down and took out to avoid placing property & people at risk in months or even years ahead.

Some other trees maybe saved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected parts being ‘cut off’ much like how an operating surgeon would remove a gangrenous leg. Others might need to get staked down with guy cables or supported with other supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree specialists can be relied upon to clear away the injured trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building crews access to the property to begin restorations on the affected properties and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Every one of these kinds of damage creates a varied prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, however making a diagnosis is a task best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more going to disregard a small detail that might just differentiate one conclusion from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which shows that the roots also failed.

There are essentially six kinds of storm damage which a tree can’t normally endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, making the crown to fall or to bend strongly whilst the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree crack underneath the ground, resulting in the tree bending or swinging significantly.
• Limb Failures – is where several branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most often on trees with very lopsided crowns. The entire crown basically becomes a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a lot of additional effects including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a very much increased risk to drop even if it made it through the initial storm.
