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. 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. The tree surgeons have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Dealing With Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact they are often seen as being really strong and eternal, trees can certainly come to be defenceless in adverse weather conditions like storms & strong winds. Violent storms and very high winds have been seen to annihilate trees and tear even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

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

The toughest option after a storm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s more or less simple. The more challenging possibility is whether or not some of the trees still upright are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been moderately harmed in the storm may well present a future hazard and might need to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid putting people & property at risk in several months or even years ahead.

Some other trees may be conserved by being trimmed back, with their most injured parts being ‘amputated’ much like how an operating surgeon may amputate a gangrenous leg. Some other may need to get staked with guy cables or supported with other supports until they can re-develop the root structure they need to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree professionals can be trusted to clear away the damaged trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building and construction companies access to the building to begin repair work on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of damage causes a varied prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, but making a prognosis is a job best entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to fail to notice a small detail that might differentiate one verdict from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which indicates that the roots also failed.

There are essentially six kinds of storm damage which a tree can’t typically sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, making the trees crown to fall or angle strongly even though the lower part stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree break below the ground, resulting in the tree bending or swaying noticeably.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to splinter, but stays standing. This takes place most often on trees with very unbalanced crowns. The full crown effectively becomes a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a lot of secondary effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a very much increased risk to fall despite the fact that it got through the original storm.
