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. Untrained persons should never attempt to deal with a tree that has fallen because of all the objects that might be under or around it and any live power lines. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact they are generally considered as being really solid and permanent, trees may end up being at risk in adverse weather like storms and strong winds. Fierce storms and extreme winds have been known to decimate trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the ground, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

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

The most difficult option following a storm isn’t how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that’s fairly straightforward. The tougher decision is whether any of the trees remaining upright are salvageable.

Various trees that have been in part damaged in the windstorm can present a potential threat and may need to be cut down and disposed of to prevent putting property & people in danger in months or years ahead.

Other trees could be saved by being trimmed back, with their worst cracked parts being ‘amputated’ similar to how an operating surgeon would take off a gangrenous limb. Some other may need to be staked down with guy cables or held up with other supports until they can re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree contractors can be trusted to get rid of the damaged trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the building teams access to the property to begin repair work on the damaged properties and power lines.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of problem leads to a varied diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however making a diagnosis is a job best entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more liable to disregard a small detail that may separate one decision from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that suggests that the roots also snapped.

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

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, resulting in the trees crown to come down or sag strongly whilst the lower section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree split underneath the ground, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most often on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The whole crown basically turns into a weathervane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening hits have a several secondary 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 always at a much higher danger to drop even though it survived the initial windstorm.
