Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

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.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they’re usually viewed as being really strong and eternal, trees may come to be defenceless in adverse weather conditions such as storms & strong winds. Intense storms and extreme winds have been known to annihilate trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them crashing to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times following a storm have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the inconvenience and danger it also may lead to expensive renovations.

The most difficult decision after a storm is not how to remove the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much straightforward. The more challenging decision is if any of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been in part damaged in the storm might present a possible future risk and might need to be chopped down and took out to prevent placing property & people in danger in months or years in the future.

Other trees maybe conserved by being trimmed back, with their most cracked parts being ‘cut off’ exactly like how a surgeon might take off a gangrenous leg. Others will require to get staked down with guy cables or supported with additional supports up until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree professionals can be relied upon to remove the broken trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building and construction companies access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged structures and power cables.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

Every one of these kinds of problem leads to a varied diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, but making a prognosis is a task best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more going to miss a small detail that might differentiate one conclusion from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that indicates that the roots also snapped.

There are generally six sorts of storm damage that a tree can not typically stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, making the trees crown to fall or bend strongly while the bottom section continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree crack underneath the soil, resulting in the tree bending or swaying considerably.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most commonly on trees with very lopsided crowns. The whole crown essentially ends up being a weathervane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind 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 opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a substantially increased danger to fall even though it endured the original storm.
