Storm Damage Tree Removal

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

Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Though they are generally considered as being really solid and timeless, trees can end up being defenceless in extreme weather like strong winds & storms. Violent storms and strong winds have been seen to wipe out trees and rip even the healthiest & sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times following strong winds have you heard of dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger and inconvenience it also will result in expensive restorations.

The hardest option following a storm isn’t specifically how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that’s more or less straightforward. The harder decision is whether some of the trees remaining upright are salvageable.

Some trees that have been moderately harmed in the windstorm may pose a future risk and may need to be cut down and removed to avoid putting people & property in danger in many months or years ahead.

Some other trees could be saved by being trimmed back, with their most damaged parts being ‘severed’ exactly like how an operating surgeon may remove a gangrenous leg. Some other might require to get staked down with guy wires or supported with various other supports until they can re-develop the root structure they need to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree professionals can be trusted to take away the affected trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction crews easy access to the building to start restorations on the affected structures and power cables.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Each one of these sorts of problem causes an unique prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a prognosis is a job ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more likely to disregard a small detail that may well separate one conclusion from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that shows that the roots also failed.

There are generally six kinds of storm damage that a tree can’t generally sustain:

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, leading to the crown to come down or to lean violently whilst the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree split underneath the soil, leading to the tree pitching or swinging dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays standing. This happens most typically on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The whole crown effectively becomes a weathervane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening hits have a many secondary effects like massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a much greater danger to drop even if it endured the initial windstorm.
