Storm Damage Tree Removal

If you have and fallen trees or any damaged trees from a storm or lightning, you should call a qualified tree surgeon. It is very dangerous for non-trained people to try and 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 have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they are generally considered as being durable and timeless, trees may come to be vulnerable in adverse weather such as storms & strong winds. Intense storms and high winds have been known to decimate trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

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

The hardest decision after a windstorm isn’t how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s more or less easy. The more difficult choice is if any of the trees still upright are salvageable.

Some trees that have been in part harmed in the windstorm might pose a potential risk and might have to be disassembled and disposed of to prevent putting property & people at risk in several months or even years in the future.

Some other trees could be conserved by being pruned back, with their most injured sections being ‘cut off’ just like how an operating surgeon may amputate a gangrenous limb. Some other may need to get staked down with guy wires or held up with additional supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on buildings, our tree professionals can be relied upon to take away the affected trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building and construction teams easy access to the property to begin repairs on the affected structures and power cables.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each of these sorts of problem results in an unique outlook for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job ideally left 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 failing to see the slight lean that indicates that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially six kinds of storm damage that a tree can not typically endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, causing the crown to come down or sag strongly while the lower part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree tear under the soil, resulting in the tree leaning or swinging considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most often on trees with very lopsided crowns. The complete crown basically turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting 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 secondary effects like massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a considerably increased risk to drop despite the fact that it got through the original windstorm.
