How many times soon after strong winds have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the danger & inconvenience it additionally can lead to costly renovations.

The hardest decision after a windstorm is not how to remove the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is pretty simple. The more challenging decision is whether or not any of the trees still standing can be saved.

Some trees that have been partially affected in the storm may well pose a potential future risk and may well have to be cut down and disposed of to avoid putting people and property in danger in months or even years in the future.

Some other trees may be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected parts being ‘amputated’ much like how a surgeon will remove a gangrenous leg. Others might need to be staked down with guy wires or supported with other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.

An unqualified nonprofessional is much more going to overlook a small detail that might separate one decision from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which shows that the roots also snapped.

There are generally six sorts of storm damage which a tree can’t generally stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the earth, making the crown to fall or to bend violently even though the bottom part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree split beneath the earth, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This takes place most often on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The whole crown basically becomes a weathervane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now.
