Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they are usually taken as being strong and everlasting, trees may end up being vulnerable in adverse weather such as storms & strong winds. Intense storms and strong winds have been seen to decimate trees and tear even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times shortly after strong winds have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger & inconvenience it also can cause expensive renovations.

The toughest option following a windstorm isn’t how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is pretty much simple. The more difficult possibility is whether or not any of the trees left standing can be saved.

Various trees that have been moderately affected in the windstorm can pose a future hazard and may have to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid putting people & property at risk in months or even years ahead.

Other trees could be conserved by being pruned back, with their most affected parts being ‘cut off’ similar to how an operating surgeon may amputate a gangrenous limb. Some other might need to get staked down with guy ropes or held up with additional supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree experts can be relied upon to remove the injured trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building crews easy access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged properties and power lines.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each one of these types of damage leads to an unique prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, however making a prognosis is a task ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to disregard a small detail that could separate one verdict from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which reveals that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially six kinds of storm damage which a tree can’t typically endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, resulting in the crown to come down or bend strongly while the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree tear beneath the earth, leading to the tree leaning or swaying considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This happens most often on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The full crown effectively ends up being a weathervane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a number of additional 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 much greater risk to drop even though it endured the original windstorm.
