Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they are usually seen as being durable and everlasting, trees can become vulnerable in extreme weather such as strong winds & storms. Violent storms and strong winds have been seen to wipe out trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the soil, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the inconvenience & danger it additionally may result in costly repair work.

The toughest decision after a windstorm is not how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that is more or less straightforward. The more challenging decision is whether some of the trees left standing are salvageable.

Some trees that have been partly harmed in the storm can present a potential future risk and might have to be cut down and removed to avoid putting people & property at risk in many months or years in the future.

Some other trees could be conserved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected parts being ‘severed’ just like how an operating surgeon might remove a gangrenous leg. Some other might need to get staked down with guy ropes or held up with various other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree specialists can be relied upon to get rid of the broken trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the construction companies easy access to the building to begin restorations on the damaged structures and power cables.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of problem creates a distinct diagnosis for the trees’ long term survival, but forming a diagnosis is a task ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more going to overlook a small detail that could differentiate one conclusion from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.

There are generally six types of storm damage that a tree can’t generally endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, leading to the trees crown to come down or to angle violently even though the lower section continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree snap beneath the soil, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays standing. This occurs most often on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The entire crown effectively becomes a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can not.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a number of additional effects such as 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 substantially increased danger to fall even if it got through the initial storm.
