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.

Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Although they’re generally considered as being really durable and permanent, trees can certainly come to be vulnerable in adverse weather conditions like storms & strong winds. Powerful storms and very high winds have been known to annihilate trees and tear even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times shortly after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the danger and inconvenience it also can cause costly restorations.

The hardest option following a storm is not specifically how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that’s more or less simple. The more challenging decision is whether any of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Various trees that have been partly damaged in the storm can present a potential hazard and may well need to be cut down and took out to avoid putting property and people at risk in months or even years in the future.

Other trees may be conserved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected sections being ‘cut off’ exactly like how a surgeon will take off a gangrenous leg. Others might require to get staked with guy cables or supported with various other supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree experts can be trusted to remove the broken trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building teams access to the property to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each of these sorts of damage causes a distinct prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, but forming a prognosis is a job best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more likely to miss a small detail that could separate one verdict from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that shows that the roots also failed.

There are essentially 6 forms of storm damage that a tree can not generally stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, making the crown to fall or to sag violently whilst the bottom section continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree tear underneath the soil, resulting in the tree bending or swaying dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays up. This takes place most frequently on trees with very unbalanced crowns. The entire crown basically ends up being a weathervane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, for now. Lightening hits have a lot of additional effects like 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 substantially higher danger to drop even though it made it through the initial storm.
