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

Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they are typically considered as being really sturdy and permanent, trees can come to be defenceless in adverse weather conditions such as strong winds & storms. Intense storms and strong winds have been known to annihilate trees and tear even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times after strong winds have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. Apart from the danger and inconvenience it additionally will cause expensive repairs.

The most difficult decision after a windstorm is not specifically how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty simple. The more challenging choice is whether or not any of the trees remaining standing can be saved.

Certain trees that have been partially harmed in the storm might present a future hazard and might need to be cut down and took out to avoid putting people & property in danger in several months or years to come.

Some other trees could be preserved by being pruned back, with their worst injured parts being ‘severed’ exactly like how a surgeon will remove a gangrenous limb. Some other will require to get staked down with guy ropes or supported with additional supports up until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree specialists can be relied upon to clear away the affected trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building teams access to the property to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged properties and power cables.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of problem creates a varied prognosis for the trees’ future survival, however making a prognosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more going to fail to notice a small detail that can differentiate one conclusion from another, such as noticing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that suggests that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially 6 forms of storm damage that a tree can not usually sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, leading to the trees crown to fall or to angle violently whilst the lower part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree snap underneath the soil, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying considerably.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays up. This happens most often on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The entire crown basically becomes a weathervane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a lot of secondary effects such as massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a very much increased danger to fall despite the fact that it got through the original storm.
