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

Dealing With Trees Damaged In A Storm

Even though they’re generally viewed as being solid and everlasting, trees can easily become defenceless in adverse weather such as strong winds & storms. Powerful storms and extreme winds have been known to decimate trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times following strong winds have you heard about dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the inconvenience and danger it also can cause expensive renovations.

The most difficult option after a storm is not how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that is fairly straightforward. The harder choice is if some of the trees remaining standing can be saved.

Certain trees that have been partially injured in the storm might present a potential future risk and might have to be disassembled and took away to prevent putting people & property in danger in several months or even years ahead.

Some other trees maybe conserved by being trimmed back, with their worst damaged parts being ‘amputated’ exactly like how a surgeon may amputate a gangrenous leg. Some other will need to be staked down with guy wires or supported with other supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree specialists can be relied upon to get rid of the affected trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the construction teams easy access to the property to start maintenance and repairs on the damaged buildings and power lines.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

Every one of these sorts of problem causes a varied prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, but forming a diagnosis is a job best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more going to disregard a small detail that can separate one conclusion from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that suggests that the roots also failed.

There are generally six sorts of storm damage that a tree can not generally endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, leading to the trees crown to fall or to angle strongly even though the lower section continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree split below the ground, leading to the tree leaning or swaying noticeably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays up. This occurs most typically on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The entire crown ultimately transforms into a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which 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 several 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 drop despite the fact that it made it through the original storm.
