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. It is very dangerous for non-trained people to try and 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. Tree surgeons are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact they’re often taken as being durable and permanent, trees can certainly come to be defenceless in extreme weather like strong winds and storms. Violent storms and very high winds have been seen to annihilate trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times shortly after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the danger and inconvenience it also can cause expensive restorations.

The toughest option following a windstorm is not specifically how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty straightforward. The more difficult choice is if any of the trees still standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been partially affected in the storm may well pose a potential hazard and might need to be chopped down and disposed of to prevent placing people and property in danger in many months or years ahead.

Other trees may be preserved by being trimmed back, with their most damaged parts being ‘cut off’ similar to how an operating surgeon will amputate a gangrenous limb. Some other will require to get staked with guy ropes or held up with other supports 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 experts can be relied upon to remove the damaged trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the construction companies access to the property to start repair work on the damaged properties and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of damage creates a different prognosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a prognosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more liable to disregard a small detail that may separate one conclusion from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which suggests that the roots also failed.

There are basically 6 sorts of storm damage which a tree can not usually endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the earth, resulting in the trees crown to fall or to bend strongly whilst the bottom section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree tear underneath the earth, resulting in the tree bending or swinging significantly.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays standing. This takes place most commonly on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The whole crown basically ends up being a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can not.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a lot of additional 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 considerably greater risk to drop even if it survived the original storm.
