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. 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. The tree surgeons have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they’re usually considered as being sturdy and everlasting, trees can become vulnerable in extreme weather like storms & strong winds. Violent storms and extreme winds have been known to wipe out trees and uplift even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the ground, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times following a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the danger and inconvenience it also will lead to expensive restorations.

The toughest option following a storm is not specifically how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s more or less straightforward. The more challenging decision is if some of the trees remaining upright can be saved.

Some trees that have been in part injured in the storm may present a potential future hazard and might have to be cut down and disposed of to avoid placing people and property in danger in months or years to come.

Some other trees may be saved by being pruned back, with their worst affected sections being ‘severed’ just like how a surgeon might remove a gangrenous limb. Others may need to get staked with guy ropes or held up with additional supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on property, our tree contractors can be trusted to get rid of the affected trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction teams easy access to the property to begin repairs on the affected properties and power cables.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of damage results in a varied diagnosis for the trees’ long term survival, but making a diagnosis is a job best left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more likely to disregard a small detail that may well separate one verdict from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which reveals that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially six kinds of storm damage which a tree can’t typically stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the earth, resulting in the trees crown to come down or angle violently whilst the lower part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree break beneath the earth, leading to the tree leaning or swinging considerably.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays standing. This takes place most often on trees with extremely unbalanced crowns. The full crown effectively ends up being a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening strikes have a number of 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 very much higher risk to drop despite the fact that it made it through the original storm.
