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. 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 are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact they’re generally taken as being really durable and eternal, trees can easily become at risk in adverse weather such as storms and strong winds. Fierce storms and very high winds have been seen to annihilate trees and tear even the healthiest and sturdiest trees from the ground, sending them crashing to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times soon after a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the danger and inconvenience it also may cause expensive repairs.

The toughest option after a storm isn’t how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is pretty straightforward. The more challenging decision is whether any of the trees remaining upright can be saved.

Some trees that have been partly harmed in the storm can present a potential future risk and might have to be chopped down and took out to avoid placing property and people at risk in months or years to come.

Other trees may be conserved by being trimmed back, with their most injured parts being ‘severed’ similar to how a surgeon may remove a gangrenous limb. Some other might require to be staked with guy wires or supported with various other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree specialists can be relied upon to clear away the affected trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the construction companies access to the property to begin repair work on the affected buildings and power cables.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each one of these kinds of damage results in an unique diagnosis for the trees’ long term survival, but forming a diagnosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more going to overlook a small detail that may separate one conclusion from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which shows that the roots also failed.

There are generally 6 types of storm damage which a tree can’t normally sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the earth, leading to the crown to fall or to sag violently while the lower section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree tear underneath the earth, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying significantly.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays standing. This occurs most commonly on trees with very lopsided crowns. The entire crown effectively becomes a weathervane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which 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 several 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 always at a very much higher danger to drop even though it endured the initial storm.
