Storm Damage Tree Removal

We recommend that you contact a professional tree surgeon to help you with any fallen trees or trees damaged from storms or lightening. 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 are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they’re usually seen as being sturdy and everlasting, trees can easily come to be defenceless in extreme weather such as storms & strong winds. Fierce storms and high winds have been known to decimate trees and tear even the healthiest & sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

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

The most difficult option after a storm is not specifically how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty much straightforward. The harder choice is whether or not some of the trees still standing are salvageable.

Some trees that have been partly injured in the windstorm may well present a future threat and might have to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid putting property and people in danger in several months or years ahead.

Some other trees may be conserved by being trimmed back, with their most affected parts being ‘severed’ similar to how a surgeon might amputate a gangrenous leg. Others may require to get staked with guy wires or supported with various other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree specialists can be trusted to remove the broken trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the construction teams easy access to the building to begin repairs on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

Each one of these sorts of damage causes a different prognosis for the trees’ future survival, but making a prognosis is a task best left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to disregard a small detail that can differentiate one verdict from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that signifies that the roots also snapped.

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

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the earth, making the crown to fall or to sag violently while the bottom part stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree snap underneath the earth, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where several branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most typically on trees with very lopsided crowns. The full crown ultimately becomes a weathervane in a storm, 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 standing, for now. Lightening strikes have a number of secondary effects like massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a substantially increased risk to fall even if it endured the initial windstorm.
