Storm Damage Tree Removal

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. Untrained persons should never attempt to deal with a tree that has fallen because of all the objects that might be under or around it and any live power lines. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Even though they’re generally considered as being really durable and timeless, trees can certainly come to be at risk in extreme weather conditions such as strong winds and storms. Violent storms and strong winds have been seen to wipe out trees and tear even the healthiest & sturdiest trees from the ground, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Apart from the inconvenience and danger it also may lead to expensive repairs.

The most difficult option following a windstorm is not specifically how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is fairly straightforward. The more challenging possibility is whether or not any of the trees left upright can be saved.

Some trees that have been in part harmed in the storm may present a future risk and may well need to be chopped down and took out to avoid putting people and property at risk in several months or even years ahead.

Other trees maybe preserved by being pruned back, with their worst cracked parts being ‘amputated’ much like how a surgeon might take off a gangrenous limb. Others will need to get staked with guy cables or held up with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on property, our tree contractors can be trusted to get rid of the affected trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building teams easy access to the property to start repair work on the affected properties and power cables.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Each one of these kinds of problem results in an unique outlook for the trees’ long term survival, however forming a prognosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more likely to disregard a small detail that may well separate one verdict from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which suggests that the roots also snapped.

There are basically six forms of storm damage which a tree can’t generally sustain:

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, making the trees crown to fall or to angle strongly even though the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree split below the soil, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging significantly.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays up. This occurs most frequently on trees with very unbalanced crowns. The entire crown effectively ends up being a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a lot of secondary effects like massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a considerably higher danger to drop even if it made it through the initial storm.
