Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they’re usually taken as being durable and timeless, trees may become defenceless in extreme weather conditions such as strong winds & storms. Violent storms and extreme winds have been known to annihilate trees and uplift even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times shortly after a storm have you heard of dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the danger & inconvenience it also will cause costly repairs.

The most difficult decision following a storm is not how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s more or less straightforward. The tougher choice is if any of the trees left standing are salvageable.

Some trees that have been in part harmed in the windstorm may pose a future risk and may well need to be cut down and disposed of to avoid placing property & people at risk in months or even years to come.

Other trees may be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst cracked parts being ‘amputated’ much like how a surgeon would take off a gangrenous limb. Others may need to be staked down with guy ropes or supported with various other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on property, our tree specialists can be trusted to remove the damaged trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building and construction companies easy access to the building to begin repairs on the damaged properties and power lines.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of damage causes a varied diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a prognosis is a task best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to disregard a small detail that might differentiate one decision from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which shows that the roots also failed.

There are generally six forms of storm damage which a tree can not typically stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, leading to the trees crown to fall or to bend violently while the lower section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree break beneath the soil, resulting in the tree leaning or swinging noticeably.
• Limb Failures – is where several branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays standing. This occurs most typically on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The full crown ultimately transforms into a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk can not.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a many additional effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a very much increased risk to drop despite the fact that it survived the initial windstorm.
