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. 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.

Dealing With Trees Damaged In A Storm

Even though they are often taken as being really strong and eternal, trees can end up being vulnerable in adverse weather such as storms & strong winds. Intense storms and strong winds have been seen to decimate trees and tear even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

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

The toughest option following a windstorm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is more or less simple. The tougher choice is whether some of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Various trees that have been partly affected in the storm can pose a potential threat and may well need to be disassembled and disposed of to prevent putting people and property at risk in many months or even years to come.

Some other trees may be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected sections being ‘amputated’ much like how an operating surgeon would amputate a gangrenous leg. Some other might need to get staked down with guy wires or held up with other supports until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree professionals can be trusted to clear away the injured trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the construction teams easy access to the property to start maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power lines.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Every one of these sorts of damage results in a varied diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, but making a diagnosis is a job ideally left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more going to overlook a small detail that might separate one decision from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that reveals that the roots also failed.

There are basically 6 kinds of storm damage that a tree can not generally endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, leading to the trees crown to come down or to sag strongly while the lower part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree break under the soil, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays standing. This happens most frequently on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The full crown basically transforms into a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow 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 hits have a several additional effects including 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 greater risk to fall even if it survived the initial storm.
