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. Tree surgeons are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Even though they are often taken as being strong and permanent, trees can become at risk in adverse weather such as strong winds & storms. Intense storms and high winds have been seen to wipe out trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times following a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the danger and inconvenience it also can result in costly restorations.

The most difficult decision after a windstorm is not how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that is more or less straightforward. The more difficult possibility is whether or not some of the trees remaining upright are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been in part damaged in the windstorm can pose a possible future risk and may well need to be disassembled and disposed of to avoid placing people and property in danger in months or even years ahead.

Some other trees maybe preserved by being trimmed back, with their most affected parts being ‘cut off’ just like how an operating surgeon might amputate a gangrenous leg. Others will need to be staked down with guy wires or supported with various other supports up until they can re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree contractors can be trusted to remove the affected trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building companies easy access to the building to begin repair work on the affected structures and power cables.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Each one of these kinds of problem causes a different diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, however making a prognosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more likely to fail to notice a small detail that can differentiate one verdict from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that shows that the roots also failed.

There are basically 6 forms of storm damage that a tree can’t usually endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, leading to the crown to fall or angle violently whilst the bottom part stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree snap under the earth, resulting in the tree bending or swinging significantly.
• Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This happens most frequently on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The entire crown essentially turns 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 up, for now. Lightening strikes have a number of secondary effects including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a considerably greater danger to drop even though it got through the original windstorm.
