Storm Damage Tree Removal

If you have and fallen trees or any damaged trees from a storm or lightning, you should call 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. 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 are typically seen as being solid and eternal, trees can easily become at risk in extreme weather conditions like storms and strong winds. Violent storms and extreme winds have been seen to annihilate trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times after strong winds have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger and inconvenience it also may lead to expensive renovations.

The hardest option after a storm isn’t how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that’s more or less straightforward. The more difficult possibility is whether any of the trees still upright can be saved.

Certain trees that have been in part injured in the windstorm may present a future risk and may well have to be chopped down and removed to avoid putting people & property at risk in many months or years ahead.

Other trees can be saved by being pruned back, with their worst injured parts being ‘severed’ just like how an operating surgeon might take off a gangrenous leg. Others may need to be staked with guy cables or held up with additional supports until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on buildings, our tree contractors can be trusted to get rid of the damaged trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the construction teams easy access to the property to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected structures and power cables.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each of these sorts of damage results in a varied diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, however making a diagnosis is a job best left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more liable to fail to notice a small detail that may differentiate one decision from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that signifies that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially 6 forms of storm damage that a tree can’t generally endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, causing the crown to fall or angle violently even though the bottom section continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree break beneath the soil, leading to the tree leaning or swaying dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This happens most commonly on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The whole crown effectively ends up being a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can not.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a lot of additional effects such as 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 very much increased danger to drop despite the fact that it survived the initial windstorm.
