Storm Damage Tree Removal

We recommend that you contact a professional tree surgeon to help you with any fallen trees or trees damaged from storms or lightening. 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 are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Although they’re often viewed as being really solid and permanent, trees can certainly end up being vulnerable in extreme weather conditions like strong winds and storms. Violent storms and extreme winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times soon after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger & inconvenience it additionally can result in expensive repair work.

The most difficult decision after a storm isn’t specifically how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty straightforward. The more difficult choice is whether or not any of the trees still upright are salvageable.

Some trees that have been moderately injured in the windstorm might pose a future threat and may well need to be disassembled and took away to avoid putting property & people in danger in many months or years ahead.

Other trees could be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst injured parts being ‘amputated’ just like how a surgeon would remove a gangrenous leg. Some other will require to get staked with guy ropes or supported with other supports until they can re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree specialists can be relied upon to get rid of the affected trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building and construction companies easy access to the building to start repair work on the damaged structures and power cables.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each of these sorts of problem leads to a varied outlook for the trees’ potential survival, but forming a prognosis is a job ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more going to overlook a small detail that can separate one verdict from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that suggests that the roots also snapped.

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

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, resulting in the trees crown to fall or to angle strongly whilst the lower section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree crack underneath the ground, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays up. This happens most typically on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The full crown essentially transforms into a weathervane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a many secondary effects including 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 risk to drop despite the fact that it survived the original windstorm.
