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 persons should never attempt to deal with a tree that has fallen because of all the objects that might be under or around it and any live power lines. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact they’re usually seen as being durable and eternal, trees can come to be at risk in adverse weather such as strong winds & storms. Violent storms and strong winds have been known to wipe out trees and uplift even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

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

The most difficult option after a windstorm is not specifically how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that is more or less easy. The more difficult possibility is if any of the trees still standing can be saved.

Certain trees that have been in part affected in the windstorm may well present a possible future risk and may have to be chopped down and took out to prevent putting people & property in danger in several months or even years in the future.

Some other trees might be preserved by being pruned back, with their most injured parts being ‘amputated’ much like how a surgeon will amputate a gangrenous leg. Others might need to get staked with guy wires or held up with various other supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree professionals can be relied upon to clear away the damaged trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building companies access to the building to start repairs on the affected buildings and power cables.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

Each one of these sorts of damage results in an unique diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, but making a diagnosis is a job ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more liable to overlook a small detail that may differentiate one decision from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that indicates that the roots also snapped.

There are basically six kinds of storm damage that a tree can not usually endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, making the crown to come down or to bend violently while the bottom section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree tear beneath the earth, resulting in the tree bending or swinging noticeably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays standing. This takes place most often on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The entire crown effectively becomes a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening strikes have a number of secondary effects such as opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a much greater risk to fall despite the fact that it survived the original windstorm.
