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. 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. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they’re often considered as being solid and permanent, trees may end up being defenceless in extreme weather like storms & strong winds. Fierce storms and very high winds have been seen to decimate trees and uplift even the healthiest & sturdiest trees from the ground, sending them crashing to the earth, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times after a storm have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the danger & inconvenience it also can cause costly repairs.

The toughest option after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that is more or less simple. The harder possibility is whether or not any of the trees remaining standing can be saved.

Some trees that have been partially affected in the windstorm may well present a potential future threat and may need to be disassembled and took away to avoid placing people & property at risk in months or years ahead.

Other trees might be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst cracked parts being ‘cut off’ much like how an operating surgeon will amputate a gangrenous leg. Some other will require to get staked down with guy wires or supported with various other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree contractors can be relied upon to remove the broken trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the construction crews access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power lines.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each one of these sorts of problem causes a distinct diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, however making a prognosis is a task best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more liable to miss a small detail that could separate one verdict from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which signifies that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially 6 forms of storm damage which a tree can not typically endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the earth, causing the crown to come down or lean violently whilst the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree split beneath the earth, leading to the tree pitching or swaying considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where several branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This takes place most typically on trees with very lopsided crowns. The whole crown essentially transforms into a weathervane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a number of secondary effects such as 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 much greater risk to drop despite the fact that it survived the original windstorm.
