Storm Damage Tree Removal

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. Untrained individuals should not attempt to 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. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Though they are generally taken as being really strong and everlasting, trees can easily become at risk in adverse weather such as strong winds & storms. Intense storms and extreme winds have been known to wipe out trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the ground, sending them toppling to the earth, 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 damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it also will lead to costly restorations.

The most difficult decision following a windstorm is not specifically how to remove the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is fairly straightforward. The more challenging decision is whether or not some of the trees left upright are salvageable.

Various trees that have been in part injured in the storm might present a future hazard and may need to be cut down and took out to avoid placing people & property in danger in many months or even years ahead.

Some other trees maybe saved by being trimmed back, with their most cracked parts being ‘severed’ just like how a surgeon would amputate a gangrenous leg. Others might need to get staked down with guy cables or supported with other supports up until they can re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree contractors can be trusted to remove the broken trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building teams access to the building to start restorations on the affected properties and power cables.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

Every one of these kinds of damage causes a different diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, but making a diagnosis is a job best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to disregard a small detail that might separate one verdict from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which reveals that the roots also snapped.

There are generally 6 types of storm damage which a tree can not typically stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, resulting in the crown to come down or sag violently whilst the bottom section continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree snap underneath the ground, resulting in the tree bending or swaying dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where several branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns enough to splinter, but stays up. This occurs most typically on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The full crown effectively turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, for now. Lightening hits have a number of additional effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a considerably higher risk to drop despite the fact that it survived the initial storm.
