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. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Even though they’re typically seen as being really durable and everlasting, trees may come to be at risk in extreme weather conditions such as strong winds & storms. Powerful storms and high winds have been known to wipe out trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the ground, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times shortly after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the danger and inconvenience it additionally will cause costly renovations.

The most difficult option following a storm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is fairly straightforward. The tougher decision is if some of the trees still standing are salvageable.

Some trees that have been partially harmed in the windstorm can present a possible future risk and may have to be disassembled and disposed of to prevent placing people and property at risk in many months or years in the future.

Other trees maybe preserved by being pruned back, with their most affected sections being ‘severed’ exactly like how an operating surgeon may amputate a gangrenous limb. Others may need to be staked down with guy wires or supported with other supports until they can re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree contractors can be relied upon to take away the damaged trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building and construction companies access to the building to begin repair work on the damaged buildings and power lines.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

Every one of these kinds of problem creates an unique prognosis for the trees’ future survival, but forming a prognosis is a task best entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more likely to fail to notice a small detail that could separate one decision from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.

There are basically 6 types of storm damage that a tree can not usually stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, leading to the trees crown to come down or sag violently while the bottom part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree split underneath the soil, resulting in the tree bending or swinging noticeably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays up. This takes place most often on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The entire crown basically ends up being a weather vane in a storm, twisting 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 up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a number of additional effects such as opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a very much increased danger to fall despite the fact that it survived the initial windstorm.
