Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

We recommend that you contact a professional tree surgeon to help you with any fallen trees or trees damaged from storms or lightening. 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. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they’re usually viewed as being durable and everlasting, trees can end up being at risk in extreme weather like storms and strong winds. Powerful storms and strong winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

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 inconvenience and danger it additionally may cause expensive repairs.

The hardest option following a windstorm isn’t specifically how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much straightforward. The more difficult choice is if some of the trees still standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been partially harmed in the storm may well present a possible future threat and may well have to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid putting property & people in danger in months or years ahead.

Other trees can be preserved by being pruned back, with their most damaged sections being ‘cut off’ much like how a surgeon would amputate a gangrenous leg. Others will require to get staked with guy wires or supported with additional supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree professionals can be trusted to clear away the affected trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the construction companies access to the building to begin restorations on the affected properties and power cables.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each of these sorts of damage leads to an unique outlook for the trees’ long term survival, but forming a prognosis is a task best entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more likely to fail to notice a small detail that might just separate one verdict from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which suggests that the roots also failed.

There are generally 6 forms of storm damage which a tree can’t usually stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, leading to the crown to come down or to lean violently while the lower part stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree snap below the ground, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying noticeably.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most often on trees with very unbalanced crowns. The full crown essentially turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which 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 like 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 considerably greater risk to drop despite the fact that it got through the original storm.
