Storm Damage Tree Removal

If you have and fallen trees or any damaged trees from a storm or lightning, you should call a qualified 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 are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Managing Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact they are generally viewed as being strong and eternal, trees can certainly end up being at risk in extreme weather conditions like storms and strong winds. Violent storms and extreme winds have been known to annihilate trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the ground, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times following strong winds have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it also will result in expensive repair work.

The hardest option after a windstorm isn’t how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty much simple. The harder choice is whether some of the trees left standing can be saved.

Certain trees that have been in part damaged in the storm can present a potential future risk and might have to be disassembled and took away to prevent putting property and people in danger in months or years in the future.

Other trees may be saved by being trimmed back, with their most injured sections being ‘severed’ much like how an operating surgeon may amputate a gangrenous leg. Some other will need to be staked with guy ropes or held up with other supports until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree specialists can be relied upon to clear away the affected trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction teams easy access to the property to start restorations on the damaged structures and power cables.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each one of these types of damage creates a different diagnosis for the trees’ long term survival, however forming a diagnosis is a task best entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more likely to miss a small detail that can separate one verdict from another, such as noticing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that indicates that the roots also snapped.

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

• Blowovers – these are where the complete tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the earth, leading to the trees crown to fall or lean strongly even though the lower part stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree split underneath the earth, resulting in the tree leaning or swinging dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This happens most typically on trees with very lopsided crowns. The complete crown effectively turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can not.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a many secondary effects including 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 much increased danger to fall despite the fact that it survived the original storm.
