Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

If you have and fallen trees or any damaged trees from a storm or lightning, you should call a qualified tree surgeon. It is very dangerous for non-trained people to try and 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 are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Even though they are usually taken as being really strong and permanent, trees can easily end up being defenceless in extreme weather like storms & strong winds. Powerful storms and high winds have been seen to decimate trees and tear even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

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

The most difficult option following a storm is not how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that is fairly simple. The harder possibility is whether any of the trees left upright can be saved.

Various trees that have been partly damaged in the windstorm may well present a future threat and may have to be cut down and took out to avoid placing property & people in danger in many months or even years in the future.

Some other trees might be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst injured sections being ‘severed’ exactly like how an operating surgeon may amputate a gangrenous limb. Some other may need to get staked down with guy wires or supported with other supports until they can re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree specialists can be trusted to take away the broken trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the construction companies easy access to the property to begin repairs on the damaged buildings and power lines.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

Each of these sorts of problem results in a varied outlook for the trees’ future survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more likely to disregard a small detail that may differentiate one decision from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which indicates that the roots also failed.

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

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, causing the trees crown to come down or to sag violently whilst the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree break below the soil, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying significantly.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This happens most commonly on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The whole crown ultimately ends up being a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind 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 several 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 typically at a very much greater risk to drop despite the fact that it survived the original windstorm.
