Storm Damage Tree Removal

If you are concerned about a tree that has fallen or has been damaged from lightning or a storm, we recommend calling a qualified 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.

Managing Storm Damaged Trees

Though they’re usually seen as being durable and eternal, trees may come to be at risk in adverse weather such as strong winds and storms. Powerful storms and high winds have been known to wipe out trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times soon after a storm have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the inconvenience & danger it additionally may result in expensive renovations.

The toughest option following a storm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s more or less simple. The tougher choice is whether some of the trees left standing are salvageable.

Various trees that have been partly injured in the windstorm may well pose a possible future risk and may well have to be chopped down and took out to avoid putting people & property at risk in many months or years ahead.

Other trees could be saved by being trimmed back, with their most cracked parts being ‘amputated’ much like how a surgeon would take off a gangrenous leg. Some other may need to get staked down with guy ropes or held up with additional supports until they can re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on buildings, our tree contractors can be relied upon to remove the broken trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the building and construction teams access to the building to start restorations on the affected properties and power lines.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each one of these types of damage leads to an unique diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job best entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more liable to miss a small detail that might just differentiate one conclusion from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which indicates that the roots also failed.

There are basically six sorts of storm damage which a tree can’t usually endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, causing the trees crown to fall or to sag strongly even though the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree break underneath the ground, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging significantly.
• Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays standing. This happens most often on trees with very lopsided crowns. The full crown essentially ends up being a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a lot of secondary effects like opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a much greater risk to drop even if it got through the original windstorm.
