Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Though they are typically taken as being strong and everlasting, trees can certainly come to be at risk in extreme weather conditions like storms and strong winds. Violent storms and high winds have been known to decimate trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the ground, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times following strong winds have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the inconvenience and danger it also may cause costly repairs.

The toughest option after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that’s fairly simple. The more difficult choice is whether or not any of the trees still standing are salvageable.

Various trees that have been partly injured in the windstorm may pose a future risk and might need to be cut down and removed to prevent putting people & property at risk in several months or even years in the future.

Some other trees could be preserved by being pruned back, with their worst affected parts being ‘amputated’ similar to how a surgeon will take off a gangrenous limb. Others might require to be staked with guy cables or held up with other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree experts can be relied upon to clear away the affected trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the building companies easy access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected structures and power lines.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of damage results in a distinct prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, however making a diagnosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more going to fail to notice a small detail that might just separate one verdict from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that reveals that the roots also snapped.

There are basically six kinds of storm damage that a tree can not typically endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the ground, resulting in the trees crown to fall or angle strongly whilst the bottom part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree break beneath the ground, leading to the tree pitching or swinging dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This occurs most often on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The full crown basically transforms into a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind in a manner in which 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 several 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 very much greater risk to fall even if it made it through the original windstorm.
