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

Managing Storm Damaged Trees

Although they are usually seen as being really solid and timeless, trees may come to be defenceless in adverse weather conditions like strong winds & storms. Violent storms and strong winds have been known to decimate trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the soil, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Apart from the danger & inconvenience it also may cause expensive renovations.

The most difficult option after a storm isn’t specifically how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is more or less simple. The more difficult possibility is whether some of the trees left standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been partly injured in the storm can pose a potential future hazard and may well have to be disassembled and took out to prevent placing people and property in danger in months or even years in the future.

Some other trees could be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst affected sections being ‘amputated’ exactly like how a surgeon would take off a gangrenous leg. Some other might require to get staked down with guy ropes or held up with various other supports until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree professionals can be relied upon to remove the broken trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building and construction companies access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged properties and power lines.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of problem causes a different prognosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a prognosis is a job ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more going to overlook a small detail that may well differentiate one conclusion from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which suggests that the roots also snapped.

There are generally 6 forms of storm damage which a tree can’t typically endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the whole tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, causing the crown to come down or angle strongly while the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree break under the soil, leading to the tree leaning or swaying considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This occurs most often on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The whole crown essentially transforms into a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind 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 hits have a many additional effects like opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a considerably higher risk to fall even if it got through the original storm.
