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.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they’re generally considered as being really sturdy and timeless, trees can easily come to be at risk in adverse weather such as storms & strong winds. Violent storms and strong winds have been known to annihilate trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times after a storm have you heard about dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the inconvenience & danger it also can result in costly restorations.

The toughest decision following a storm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s fairly simple. The harder decision is whether or not any of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Various trees that have been moderately harmed in the windstorm may well pose a possible future risk and may have to be disassembled and took away to prevent placing people and property at risk in months or even years to come.

Some other trees can be saved by being pruned back, with their most injured sections being ‘amputated’ just like how a surgeon may remove a gangrenous limb. Others may require to be staked down with guy ropes or supported with additional supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree contractors can be relied upon to remove the damaged trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction crews access to the building to start repair work on the affected properties and power lines.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of problem creates a distinct diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a prognosis is a task best left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to miss a small detail that can separate one conclusion from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which suggests that the roots also failed.

There are generally 6 sorts of storm damage which a tree can’t typically sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, resulting in the crown to fall or to sag strongly while the lower part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree crack beneath the soil, resulting in the tree bending or swinging noticeably.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This takes place most commonly on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The complete crown basically becomes a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can not.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a several secondary effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a considerably greater risk to fall despite the fact that it made it through the initial windstorm.
