Tree surgeons are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact they’re usually viewed as being sturdy and timeless, trees may come to be defenceless in extreme weather such as storms and strong winds. Fierce storms and strong winds have been known to annihilate trees and tear even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them crashing to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

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

The hardest option following a storm is not how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty simple. The tougher possibility is whether any of the trees left standing can be saved.

Various trees that have been in part affected in the storm might present a potential future threat and might have to be disassembled and took away to avoid placing property and people at risk in months or years to come.

Some other trees can be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst damaged sections being ‘amputated’ similar to how an operating surgeon would take off a gangrenous leg. Others might need to be staked down with guy wires or held up with other supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree contractors can be relied upon to take away the affected trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building and construction crews access to the building to begin repair work on the damaged structures and power cables.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of problem results in a different prognosis for the trees’ future survival, however making a prognosis is a task best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more liable to miss a small detail that may well separate one verdict from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which indicates that the roots also failed.

There are generally six types of storm damage which a tree can’t usually sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, resulting in the trees crown to come down or sag violently whilst the lower part stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree snap below the soil, leading to the tree bending or swinging considerably.
• Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most commonly on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The complete crown effectively transforms into a weathervane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a number of 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 higher risk to fall even if it endured the original storm.
