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. 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. Tree surgeons are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Though they’re often considered as being durable and permanent, trees can easily end up being at risk in adverse weather conditions like storms and strong winds. Violent storms and extreme winds have been known to wipe out trees and tear even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the ground, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times shortly after a storm have you heard of dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the danger and inconvenience it additionally will cause costly restorations.

The most difficult decision following a storm is not specifically how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much simple. The more difficult decision is if any of the trees still upright can be saved.

Various trees that have been moderately harmed in the storm can pose a possible future threat and may well need to be cut down and removed to prevent putting property & people in danger in several months or years to come.

Other trees might be preserved by being pruned back, with their most injured parts being ‘amputated’ much like how an operating surgeon would take off a gangrenous leg. Some other will require to be staked with guy ropes or supported with various other supports until they can re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree contractors can be relied upon to take away the broken trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building and construction crews easy access to the building to start repairs on the damaged buildings and power lines.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of damage results in a distinct outlook for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more likely to fail to notice a small detail that can differentiate one conclusion from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which indicates that the roots also failed.

There are generally six sorts of storm damage which a tree can’t normally stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, making the trees crown to come down or to bend strongly while the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree snap beneath the ground, resulting in the tree bending or swaying considerably.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays standing. This happens most commonly on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The complete crown essentially transforms into a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a several additional effects such as opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a substantially increased risk to drop even though it survived the initial storm.
