Tree Surgeon Digmoor

Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

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. Because of the many objects and live power lines that may be underneath or around a tree it is dangerous for untrained people to attempt to approach them. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Although they are often taken as being really durable and eternal, trees can certainly come to be vulnerable in adverse weather conditions like storms and strong winds. Powerful storms and very high winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times shortly after a storm have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience and danger it additionally will lead to costly repairs.

The most difficult decision following a storm is not how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is pretty easy. The more difficult decision is whether or not any of the trees still standing are salvageable.

Some trees that have been partly harmed in the storm can pose a potential future hazard and might need to be disassembled and took out to prevent putting people & property in danger in months or years in the future.

Other trees can be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst damaged parts being ‘severed’ similar to how an operating surgeon may take off a gangrenous leg. Others might need to be staked with guy wires or supported with other supports until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree contractors can be relied upon to clear away the injured trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building and construction teams access to the property to start restorations on the affected properties and power cables.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each of these sorts of damage creates an unique outlook for the trees’ future survival, however making a diagnosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to disregard a small detail that may well differentiate one verdict from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that suggests that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially 6 forms of storm damage that a tree can not usually sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the earth, causing the trees crown to fall or to angle violently whilst the lower section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree snap below the earth, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays up. This occurs most often on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The complete crown essentially ends up being 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 up, for now. Lightening hits have a many secondary effects such as opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a substantially increased danger to fall even if it got through the original storm.
