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. 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 are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Even though they’re often taken as being really strong and eternal, trees can easily become defenceless in extreme weather like strong winds & storms. Intense storms and strong winds have been seen to decimate trees and tear even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the ground, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times soon after strong winds have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the inconvenience and danger it additionally can lead to costly repair work.

The hardest option following a windstorm isn’t how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s fairly simple. The tougher choice is whether some of the trees remaining upright can be saved.

Some trees that have been moderately affected in the storm may present a potential future risk and might need to be disassembled and removed to prevent putting people and property at risk in many months or years in the future.

Some other trees could be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst injured sections being ‘severed’ much like how an operating surgeon may remove a gangrenous leg. Some other may need to get staked with guy cables or supported with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree experts can be relied upon to get rid of the affected trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the construction companies easy access to the building to start repairs on the affected properties and power lines.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Every one of these sorts of problem creates a distinct prognosis for the trees’ future survival, but forming a diagnosis is a job ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more going to miss a small detail that could separate one decision from another, such as noticing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that reveals that the roots also snapped.

There are basically six sorts of storm damage that a tree can not typically stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, resulting in the crown to come down or to angle strongly whilst the lower section continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree tear beneath the ground, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying noticeably.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays standing. This occurs most commonly on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The entire crown ultimately becomes a weathervane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk can not.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening strikes have a several additional effects such as 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 much greater danger to drop even if it survived the original storm.
