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. 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. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Even though they are often considered as being really sturdy and eternal, trees can become defenceless in extreme weather such as strong winds & storms. Powerful storms and very high winds have been known to annihilate trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the soil, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times shortly after a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger and inconvenience it also may lead to costly repair work.

The toughest option following a windstorm isn’t how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that’s fairly easy. The more difficult decision is if any of the trees remaining upright can be saved.

Certain trees that have been in part harmed in the storm can present a possible future threat and might have to be cut down and took out to avoid placing property & people at risk in several months or even years ahead.

Other trees may be saved by being pruned back, with their worst damaged parts being ‘amputated’ similar to how a surgeon may take off a gangrenous limb. Some other might require to be staked down with guy cables or supported with various other supports up until they can re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree experts can be relied upon to remove the broken trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction companies easy access to the building to start repairs on the affected buildings and power lines.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

All of these types of damage causes a different outlook for the trees’ long term survival, however making a diagnosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more liable to fail to notice a small detail that might differentiate one conclusion from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which suggests that the roots also snapped.

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

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, leading to the trees crown to come down or to bend strongly while the lower section continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree snap beneath the ground, leading to the tree pitching or swinging 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 standing. This happens most often on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The full crown basically ends up being a weathervane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow 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 additional effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a much increased risk to drop despite the fact that it survived the initial storm.
