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. Because of the many objects and live power lines that may be underneath or around a tree it is dangerous for untrained people to attempt to approach them. The tree surgeons have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Even though they’re generally viewed as being strong and everlasting, trees can easily end up being vulnerable in extreme weather such as storms & strong winds. Violent storms and extreme winds have been known to wipe out trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times soon after a storm have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the inconvenience and danger it also may result in expensive renovations.

The hardest decision following a windstorm is not how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is more or less simple. The harder choice is whether or not some of the trees left upright are salvageable.

Various trees that have been in part harmed in the storm may well pose a potential future hazard and may well have to be disassembled and disposed of to prevent placing people and property in danger in several months or years ahead.

Some other trees may be saved by being pruned back, with their worst injured sections being ‘amputated’ similar to how a surgeon would take off a gangrenous leg. Some other might require to be staked with guy wires or held up with additional supports until they can re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree experts can be trusted to take away the damaged trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building teams access to the building to start maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power lines.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Each of these kinds of damage creates a varied diagnosis for the trees’ long term survival, but forming a diagnosis is a job ideally left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to overlook a small detail that could separate one decision from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.

There are basically 6 forms of storm damage that a tree can’t typically sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, causing the trees crown to come down or bend violently even though the lower part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree split beneath the earth, leading to the tree leaning 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 split, but stays standing. This takes place most often on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The entire crown essentially transforms into a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening strikes have a lot of secondary 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 substantially greater danger to fall even if it endured the original storm.
