Storm Damage Tree Removal

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. 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 are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Although they’re typically considered as being strong and eternal, trees can become defenceless in adverse weather such as storms and strong winds. Violent storms and extreme winds have been seen to annihilate trees and uplift even the healthiest & sturdiest trees from the soil, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

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

The most difficult option following a windstorm isn’t specifically how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty much simple. The more challenging decision is if any of the trees still standing are salvageable.

Various trees that have been partly injured in the storm can pose a future risk and may need to be chopped down and took out to avoid placing people and property in danger in several months or years in the future.

Some other trees might be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst cracked sections being ‘cut off’ exactly like how a surgeon would amputate a gangrenous limb. Others will require to be staked down with guy wires or supported with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree experts can be trusted to clear away the injured trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building crews easy access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power cables.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Every one of these sorts of problem creates a different prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, but forming a prognosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more liable to fail to notice a small detail that might just separate one conclusion from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which signifies that the roots also snapped.

There are basically six kinds of storm damage which a tree can’t normally endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, resulting in the crown to come down or angle strongly while the bottom part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree snap under the earth, leading to the tree pitching or swinging dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays up. This occurs most frequently on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The full crown ultimately transforms into 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 up, for now. Lightening hits have a several additional effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a much higher risk to fall even though it made it through the initial storm.
