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. 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. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Although they are generally taken as being really strong and eternal, trees can easily come to be defenceless in adverse weather such as storms & strong winds. Violent storms and strong winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times following a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it additionally will cause costly repairs.

The hardest option after a storm is not specifically how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty easy. The tougher choice is if some of the trees left upright can be saved.

Various trees that have been in part affected in the storm may present a future risk and may well have to be chopped down and removed to prevent placing people & property in danger in months or even years ahead.

Other trees could be preserved by being trimmed back, with their most affected sections being ‘amputated’ just like how an operating surgeon may take off a gangrenous limb. Some other might require to be staked down with guy ropes or held up with various other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on buildings, our tree contractors can be trusted to clear away the broken trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the construction companies access to the property to begin repair work on the damaged properties and power lines.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of problem results in a different outlook for the trees’ long term survival, but forming a diagnosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more going to overlook a small detail that may well differentiate one decision from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that shows that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially six types of storm damage that a tree can not generally endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the earth, making the crown to come down or sag strongly whilst the bottom part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree crack beneath the earth, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying significantly.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This occurs most commonly on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The full crown ultimately ends up being a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can not.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening strikes have a many 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 always at a much greater danger to drop despite the fact that it got through the initial storm.
