This method of removing a tree is best used when there is no risk that it will cause any damage to people or property. For large trees, however, this is often impossible due to the need for a lot of space for them to fall.

Tree Dismantling

It can be used when there isn’t enough space to simply fell the tree. The entire process must be carefully guided to avoid any injury to people or damage to property. It is difficult to dismantle trees in sections. Starting at the top, the tree must be cut into manageable sections.

Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they are generally considered as being really strong and everlasting, trees can certainly come to be defenceless in extreme weather conditions such as storms and strong winds. Powerful storms and extreme winds have been seen to wipe out trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees from the soil, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times soon after a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Apart from the danger & inconvenience it also can result in expensive restorations.

The most difficult decision following a windstorm is not specifically how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty simple. The harder choice is if some of the trees left upright can be saved.

Certain trees that have been in part affected in the windstorm can pose a possible future hazard and might have to be disassembled and took away to avoid placing people and property at risk in several months or years ahead.

Some other trees may be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst cracked parts being ‘cut off’ just like how a surgeon may take off a gangrenous limb. Some other will require to get staked with guy ropes or supported with various other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree experts can be trusted to take away the damaged trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the construction crews easy access to the property to start maintenance and repairs on the damaged structures and power lines.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Each one of these sorts of damage causes a distinct outlook for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a prognosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more going to overlook a small detail that could separate one verdict from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that suggests that the roots also failed.

There are generally six kinds of storm damage that a tree can not usually sustain:

  • Blowovers – these are where the entire tree is uprooted.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, resulting in the trees crown to fall or bend violently whilst the bottom section remains standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree break underneath the soil, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying noticeably.
  • Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree detach.
  • Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most often on trees with extremely unbalanced crowns. The entire crown effectively transforms into a weathervane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can not.
  • Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits 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 tree hit by lightening is typically at a very much greater danger to fall despite the fact that it got through the original windstorm.
