Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact they’re generally taken as being really solid and everlasting, trees may become vulnerable in extreme weather like storms and strong winds. Intense storms and high winds have been known to wipe out trees and tear even the healthiest and sturdiest trees from the ground, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times shortly after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it also may lead to expensive renovations.

The toughest decision following a storm is not how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that is more or less easy. The more challenging decision is whether any of the trees left upright are salvageable.

Various trees that have been partly damaged in the storm can present a potential future hazard and may well need to be chopped down and removed to avoid placing property & people in danger in several months or years to come.

Some other trees can be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst injured parts being ‘cut off’ similar to how a surgeon might take off a gangrenous limb. Some other may need to be staked down with guy cables or supported with additional supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they need to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree specialists can be trusted to clear away the broken trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building and construction crews easy access to the property to begin repair work on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each one of these types of damage results in a different prognosis for the trees’ future survival, however making a diagnosis is a job ideally left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more going to miss a small detail that might differentiate one conclusion 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 6 sorts of storm damage that a tree can’t normally endure:

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, making the trees crown to come down or to lean strongly while the bottom section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree break under the ground, resulting in the tree leaning or swinging significantly.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays up. This happens most often on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The entire crown essentially ends up being a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a lot of secondary effects like massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a substantially higher risk to fall even if it got through the original storm.
