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

Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they’re generally viewed as being durable and timeless, trees can easily come to be vulnerable in adverse weather conditions such as strong winds & storms. Violent storms and high winds have been seen to decimate trees and tear even the healthiest & sturdiest trees from the soil, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times after a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it additionally can cause costly repair work.

The most difficult option after a storm isn’t specifically how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty straightforward. The more difficult possibility is whether or not any of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been partly damaged in the windstorm can present a future risk and might need to be disassembled and took away to avoid placing property and people at risk in months or years to come.

Other trees could be conserved by being pruned back, with their most affected parts being ‘amputated’ similar to how an operating surgeon may take off a gangrenous leg. Others will require to be staked with guy cables or supported with additional supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree experts can be relied upon to remove the damaged trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building and construction companies easy access to the building to start restorations on the damaged properties and power cables.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Each one of these sorts of damage causes an unique prognosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more likely to miss a small detail that may well separate one decision from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that reveals that the roots also snapped.

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

• Blowovers – these are where the complete tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, leading to the crown to fall or angle violently while the bottom section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree split under the ground, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging significantly.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most frequently on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The complete crown essentially ends up being a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening hits have a lot of secondary effects including 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 greater risk to fall even though it got through the original windstorm.
