Tree Surgeon Westhoughton

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. The tree surgeons have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they’re generally seen as being solid and everlasting, trees can easily become vulnerable in adverse weather conditions such as strong winds & storms. Intense storms and strong winds have been seen to decimate trees and uplift even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times soon after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the danger and inconvenience it additionally can cause expensive restorations.

The hardest option following a storm isn’t how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that is more or less easy. The more challenging decision is if any of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Some trees that have been moderately injured in the windstorm may present a potential future threat and may have to be disassembled and removed to avoid putting property & people in danger in several months or even years ahead.

Some other trees could be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst cracked sections being ‘amputated’ just like how a surgeon would take off a gangrenous leg. Others might need to get staked with guy wires or held up with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree experts can be trusted to take away the broken trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building companies access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged structures and power lines.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of problem leads to a different diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, but forming a prognosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more going to fail to notice a small detail that may well separate one decision from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that shows that the roots also snapped.

There are basically 6 forms of storm damage that a tree can not normally stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, resulting in the crown to fall or to angle strongly even though the lower part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree break beneath the ground, leading to the tree leaning or swinging dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays standing. This takes place most commonly on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The whole crown basically transforms into a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can not.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening hits have a number of secondary effects like 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 much greater danger to fall even if it made it through the initial windstorm.
