Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

If you have a fallen tree, or suspect that your tree has been damaged by lightning or a storm, it is a good idea to call a certified tree surgeon. Untrained persons should never attempt to deal with a tree that has fallen because of all the objects that might be under or around it and any live power lines. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Managing Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they’re often seen as being solid and permanent, trees can come to be at risk in adverse weather conditions such as storms and strong winds. Fierce storms and extreme winds have been known to decimate trees and uplift even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times shortly after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the danger and inconvenience it also can cause expensive repair work.

The hardest option after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is fairly easy. The harder decision is whether or not any of the trees still upright are salvageable.

Some trees that have been moderately harmed in the storm can pose a possible future threat and might need to be cut down and disposed of to prevent putting property and people at risk in many months or even years to come.

Some other trees can be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst injured sections being ‘severed’ exactly like how a surgeon will take off a gangrenous limb. Some other will require to get staked down with guy ropes or supported with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree experts can be relied upon to remove the injured trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building and construction companies easy access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected properties and power lines.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of damage creates a different diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, but making a diagnosis is a job best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more liable to overlook a small detail that could separate one decision from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that reveals that the roots also failed.

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

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, making the trees crown to come down or angle strongly whilst the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree snap below the soil, leading to the tree leaning or swaying 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 up. This occurs most typically on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The full crown ultimately turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, for now. Lightening strikes have a many secondary effects such as opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a considerably greater risk to drop despite the fact that it made it through the initial storm.
