Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

If you have a fallen tree, or suspect that your tree has been damaged by lightning or a storm, it is a good idea to call a certified tree surgeon. 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.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Although they’re often taken as being really strong and eternal, trees may become vulnerable in adverse weather like storms and strong winds. Powerful storms and very high winds have been known to annihilate trees and uplift even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times following strong winds have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the inconvenience and danger it additionally will lead to expensive renovations.

The hardest option following a windstorm isn’t how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that is fairly simple. The more difficult choice is if any of the trees left upright are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been partially damaged in the windstorm can present a potential future risk and may need to be disassembled and disposed of to prevent placing property & people at risk in months or years to come.

Other trees can be saved by being pruned back, with their worst injured sections being ‘cut off’ similar to how a surgeon would amputate a gangrenous limb. Some other will require to be staked with guy ropes or held up with various other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree contractors can be relied upon to take away the broken trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the construction crews access to the property to start repairs on the affected properties and power lines.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of damage causes an unique outlook for the trees’ future survival, however making a diagnosis is a job best entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more liable to overlook a small detail that could differentiate one conclusion from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that signifies that the roots also failed.

There are essentially six types of storm damage that a tree can’t generally sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the whole tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, making the crown to fall or to lean strongly even though the bottom section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree split under the ground, leading to the tree leaning or swinging dramatically.
• Branch 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 standing. This occurs most typically on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The whole crown ultimately becomes a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a many secondary effects including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a much greater risk to drop even though it got through the initial windstorm.
