Managing Storm Damaged Trees

Though they are often viewed as being really sturdy and timeless, trees can certainly become defenceless in extreme weather such as strong winds & storms. Fierce storms and high winds have been known to annihilate trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times soon after strong winds have you heard of dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger and inconvenience it also will lead to costly restorations.

The toughest option after a windstorm is not how to remove the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is pretty much easy. The more challenging choice is whether some of the trees still standing can be saved.

Certain trees that have been partly harmed in the storm may well present a potential future risk and may well have to be disassembled and took away to avoid placing people & property in danger in several months or even years to come.

Some other trees may be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst damaged parts being ‘cut off’ much like how a surgeon may remove a gangrenous limb. Some other may need to be staked down with guy cables or supported with additional supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree experts can be relied upon to remove the damaged trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the construction crews access to the building to begin restorations on the affected buildings and power cables.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each one of these types of problem leads to a varied diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, but making a prognosis is a task ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to disregard a small detail that can differentiate one conclusion from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which signifies that the roots also failed.

There are essentially 6 types of storm damage which a tree can not usually endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, resulting in the trees crown to fall or sag strongly whilst the lower part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree break below the soil, resulting in the tree bending or swaying noticeably.
• Limb Failures – is where several branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays up. This occurs most commonly on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The full crown ultimately turns into a weathervane in a windstorm, turning 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 hits have a number of secondary effects like massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a considerably increased danger to fall even though it endured the original storm.
