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 are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Dealing With Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they are generally considered as being solid and eternal, trees can easily come to be vulnerable in extreme weather conditions such as storms and strong winds. Violent storms and very high winds have been seen to annihilate trees and tear even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

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

The most difficult option after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty much easy. The harder possibility is if any of the trees left standing are salvageable.

Some trees that have been moderately affected in the storm may present a future risk and may well have to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid putting people and property in danger in many months or years in the future.

Other trees maybe preserved by being trimmed back, with their most affected sections being ‘amputated’ much like how a surgeon may take off a gangrenous leg. Others will require to get staked down with guy ropes or held up with various other supports up until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree experts can be trusted to get rid of the affected trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building crews easy access to the building to begin restorations on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each one of these types of damage creates a different prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job ideally left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more going to fail to notice a small detail that may differentiate one conclusion from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which signifies that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially 6 forms of storm damage which a tree can’t typically sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the whole tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, making the trees crown to come down or to lean violently whilst the lower part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree snap underneath the ground, leading to the tree leaning or swinging dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This happens most often on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The whole crown essentially ends up being a weathervane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that 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 lot of 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 substantially greater danger to fall despite the fact that it made it through the initial storm.
