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. The tree surgeons have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Even though they are usually taken as being sturdy and everlasting, trees can become vulnerable in adverse weather like strong winds and storms. Violent storms and high winds have been known to wipe out trees and tear even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times after strong winds have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger and inconvenience it also may cause costly repairs.

The hardest option after a windstorm is not how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty much easy. The tougher possibility is whether any of the trees remaining upright can be saved.

Some trees that have been in part damaged in the windstorm can present a possible future threat and may have to be disassembled and took out to avoid placing people and property in danger in months or years ahead.

Other trees might be conserved by being trimmed back, with their worst injured parts being ‘amputated’ much like how an operating surgeon may take off a gangrenous leg. Others might need to get staked down with guy cables or supported with other supports until they can re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree specialists can be relied upon to take away the injured trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the construction crews access to the property to start repairs on the damaged properties and power cables.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each one of these sorts of problem results in a distinct prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, but forming a prognosis is a task ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more going to disregard a small detail that may well separate one decision from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which suggests that the roots also failed.

There are essentially six types of storm damage which a tree can not typically stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the complete tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, leading to the crown to fall or to angle violently even though the lower section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree break beneath the earth, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying noticeably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays standing. This takes place most typically on trees with very lopsided crowns. The complete crown essentially transforms into a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Hits – 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 always at a substantially greater danger to drop even if it endured the initial windstorm.
