Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

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. Untrained individuals should not attempt to 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.

Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Though they are often considered as being sturdy and permanent, trees may come to be defenceless in extreme weather like strong winds & storms. Fierce storms and very high winds have been known to wipe out trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times shortly after a storm have you heard of dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the danger & inconvenience it additionally can result in costly renovations.

The most difficult option following a windstorm isn’t how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s fairly easy. The tougher choice is whether or not any of the trees still standing can be saved.

Certain trees that have been partly damaged in the storm can present a possible future threat and may need to be disassembled and took away to avoid placing people and property at risk in several months or years in the future.

Some other trees can be saved by being trimmed back, with their most cracked sections being ‘cut off’ much like how a surgeon may take off a gangrenous limb. Others might need to get staked down with guy cables or held up with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree contractors can be trusted to remove the injured trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building and construction crews access to the building to begin restorations on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of problem results in a varied diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a diagnosis is a task best left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to miss a small detail that might just differentiate one verdict from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which signifies that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially six types of storm damage which a tree can’t normally 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 trees crown to fall or to sag strongly whilst the bottom section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree snap beneath the earth, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most often on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The entire crown ultimately turns into a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can not.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, 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 lightening-hit tree is typically at a substantially increased risk to fall even though it made it through the initial storm.
