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 individuals should not attempt to 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.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they are typically taken as being durable and permanent, trees may become defenceless in extreme weather conditions like storms and strong winds. Intense storms and very high winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees from the ground, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times following a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the danger and inconvenience it also may result in costly repairs.

The hardest option following a storm is not specifically how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty much straightforward. The more challenging choice is whether or not any of the trees remaining upright are salvageable.

Various trees that have been moderately affected in the storm can present a potential risk and may well need to be chopped down and took out to prevent placing property and people in danger in months or years in the future.

Other trees might be conserved by being trimmed back, with their worst cracked parts being ‘severed’ much like how a surgeon may take off a gangrenous leg. Some other might require to be staked down with guy cables or supported with various other supports up until they can re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree contractors can be relied upon to take away the broken trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building and construction teams easy access to the property to begin repairs on the damaged structures and power lines.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each one of these kinds of problem leads to a different prognosis for the trees’ future survival, but making a prognosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more liable to fail to notice a small detail that could separate one decision from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that suggests that the roots also snapped.

There are generally 6 kinds of storm damage that a tree can not usually endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, making the crown to come down or to angle strongly whilst the lower section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree crack beneath the ground, resulting in the tree bending or swinging dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays standing. This happens most typically on trees with very lopsided crowns. The full crown ultimately ends up being a weathervane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a lot of secondary effects including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a much greater risk to fall despite the fact that it survived the initial storm.
