Storm Damage Tree Removal

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 have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact they are generally taken as being really solid and permanent, trees can certainly end up being vulnerable in adverse weather conditions such as storms & strong winds. Intense storms and extreme winds have been known to decimate trees and uplift even the healthiest & sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times after strong winds have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it also will result in costly repairs.

The most difficult decision following a windstorm isn’t how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much easy. The tougher possibility is whether any of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been moderately affected in the windstorm might present a potential threat and may well have to be chopped down and took away to avoid putting property & people in danger in months or even years ahead.

Other trees might be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst cracked sections being ‘cut off’ similar to how a surgeon might remove a gangrenous leg. Some other might require to be staked down with guy wires 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 land on property, our tree specialists can be trusted to take away the affected trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building and construction teams easy access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power cables.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of problem creates a varied diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however making a prognosis is a task best entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to fail to notice a small detail that might separate one conclusion from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which signifies that the roots also snapped.

There are generally six kinds of storm damage which a tree can not usually stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the earth, resulting in the crown to fall or to bend strongly while the lower part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree tear below the earth, leading to the tree leaning or swinging considerably.
• Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays standing. This happens most frequently on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The entire crown basically ends up being a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening hits have a number of additional 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 very much higher danger to fall even if it made it through the original windstorm.
