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. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Even though they’re usually viewed as being sturdy and eternal, trees can certainly end up being vulnerable in extreme weather conditions like storms and strong winds. Violent storms and very high winds have been known to annihilate trees and tear even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the danger & inconvenience it also will lead to costly repairs.

The most difficult option after a storm is not how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that’s fairly simple. The harder possibility is if any of the trees still upright can be saved.

Various trees that have been partly damaged in the windstorm may well pose a potential future threat and may need to be disassembled and took out to avoid putting people & property in danger in months or even years in the future.

Other trees might be saved by being pruned back, with their worst cracked parts being ‘cut off’ exactly like how an operating surgeon would amputate a gangrenous limb. Others might require to get staked down with guy ropes or held up with various other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree specialists can be relied upon to remove the damaged trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building teams easy access to the property to start maintenance and repairs on the damaged properties and power lines.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of damage causes an unique prognosis for the trees’ future survival, but making a diagnosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more liable to overlook a small detail that may separate one conclusion from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that shows that the roots also failed.

There are essentially six types of storm damage that a tree can not usually endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, leading to the crown to come down or to sag strongly while the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree tear under the soil, resulting in the tree bending or swinging significantly.
• Limb Failures – is where several branches of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This happens most commonly on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The entire crown ultimately becomes a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening hits have a number of secondary 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 considerably increased risk to drop even if it survived the original windstorm.
