Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

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 are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact that they are generally seen as being really durable and eternal, trees can end up being vulnerable in extreme weather such as strong winds and storms. Powerful storms and strong winds have been known to wipe out trees and tear even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the ground, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times soon after a storm have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it additionally will lead to expensive repairs.

The toughest decision after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that’s fairly easy. The harder decision is whether or not any of the trees remaining standing can be saved.

Some trees that have been in part affected in the storm can present a possible future threat and might have to be chopped down and took out to prevent placing people & property at risk in many months or years to come.

Some other trees may be preserved by being pruned back, with their most injured sections being ‘severed’ much like how an operating surgeon may remove a gangrenous leg. Others may need to be staked down with guy ropes or held up with additional supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree experts can be relied upon to take away the affected trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction teams access to the property to begin restorations on the affected properties and power lines.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

All of these types of damage causes an unique prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, however making a diagnosis is a task best left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to fail to notice a small detail that might separate one verdict from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that signifies that the roots also failed.

There are generally 6 sorts of storm damage that a tree can’t usually stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the ground, resulting in the trees crown to fall or to bend violently while the bottom part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree tear below the ground, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying noticeably.
• Branch 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 up. This happens most commonly on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The complete crown essentially turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, for now. Lightening hits have a several additional effects such as massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a very much increased risk to drop despite the fact that it endured the original storm.
