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. 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. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact they are often considered as being sturdy and eternal, trees may end up being vulnerable in extreme weather conditions like strong winds & storms. Violent storms and strong winds have been seen to decimate trees and tear even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the soil, sending them crashing to the ground, 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 blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the danger & inconvenience it additionally will result in costly repair work.

The toughest option after a windstorm is not how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much simple. The harder decision is whether or not some of the trees still standing can be saved.

Some trees that have been in part injured in the storm may well pose a future hazard and may have to be cut down and took out to avoid putting people & property at risk in many months or even years in the future.

Some other trees can be conserved by being trimmed back, with their worst injured sections being ‘cut off’ just like how an operating surgeon would remove a gangrenous limb. Others might require to get staked with guy ropes or supported with other supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree specialists can be relied upon to remove the broken trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building and construction teams access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected properties and power cables.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of problem causes a different diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, however making a prognosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more likely to miss a small detail that can differentiate one decision from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that suggests that the roots also snapped.

There are basically 6 kinds of storm damage that a tree can not normally sustain:

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, causing the crown to fall or to bend violently even though the bottom section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree break under the soil, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This occurs most commonly on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The entire crown effectively turns into a weathervane in a windstorm, 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 up, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a many additional 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 always at a much greater danger to fall even if it got through the original storm.
