Storm Damage Tree Removal

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. Because of the many objects and live power lines that may be underneath or around a tree it is dangerous for untrained people to attempt to approach them. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact they’re generally viewed as being really sturdy and timeless, trees can certainly become at risk in adverse weather such as storms and strong winds. Violent storms and very high winds have been known to decimate trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

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

The toughest decision after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that’s fairly simple. The more challenging decision is whether or not any of the trees left upright are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been partially injured in the windstorm may well present a potential risk and might need to be disassembled and removed to avoid placing property and people in danger in many months or even years to come.

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

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on property, our tree contractors can be trusted to get rid of the broken trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building crews easy access to the property to start maintenance and repairs on the damaged properties and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of problem leads to a varied outlook for the trees’ future survival, however forming a diagnosis is a task best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more going to disregard a small detail that might just differentiate one decision from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that reveals that the roots also snapped.

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

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, resulting in the trees crown to come down or angle violently even though the lower section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree snap under the soil, leading to the tree pitching or swinging significantly.
• Branch 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 standing. This occurs most commonly on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The complete crown basically becomes a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a lot 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 always at a very much higher risk to fall even though it made it through the initial windstorm.
