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

Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Though they’re usually considered as being sturdy and timeless, trees can become at risk in adverse weather conditions like storms & strong winds. Powerful storms and high winds have been known to decimate trees and uplift even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them crashing to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times shortly after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the danger & inconvenience it also will result in expensive repairs.

The toughest decision following a storm isn’t specifically how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty much simple. The harder choice is if some of the trees remaining upright can be saved.

Various trees that have been partly injured in the storm might pose a possible future threat and may have to be chopped down and took away to avoid placing people and property at risk in months or even years ahead.

Some other trees maybe conserved by being pruned back, with their most injured parts being ‘severed’ similar to how an operating surgeon would take off a gangrenous limb. Some other might need to get staked down with guy ropes or held up with additional supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree specialists can be relied upon to remove the affected trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building and construction companies easy access to the property to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged properties and power lines.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

Each one of these sorts of problem creates a varied outlook for the trees’ long term survival, but making a prognosis is a job best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more liable to disregard a small detail that may separate one verdict from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that shows that the roots also snapped.

There are basically 6 kinds of storm damage that a tree can’t usually sustain:

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, resulting in the trees crown to fall or angle violently while the lower part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree crack below the soil, leading to the tree bending or swaying dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to splinter, but stays standing. This occurs most frequently on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The whole crown basically ends up being a weathervane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening strikes 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 considerably higher danger to drop even though it endured the original storm.
