Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Although they’re generally taken as being durable and timeless, trees may end up being vulnerable in adverse weather like storms & strong winds. Powerful storms and very high winds have been seen to annihilate trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times following strong winds have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the inconvenience & danger it also can cause expensive renovations.

The toughest option following a storm isn’t how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is more or less straightforward. The more challenging possibility is whether or not some of the trees remaining upright can be saved.

Some trees that have been partly affected in the windstorm may pose a future risk and may need to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid placing people & property in danger in months or years to come.

Other trees may be conserved by being trimmed back, with their worst injured sections being ‘amputated’ similar to how an operating surgeon may remove a gangrenous limb. Some other might need to be staked with guy wires or held up with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree experts can be trusted to take away the broken trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building teams easy access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected properties and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each one of these sorts of damage results in an unique diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, but making a prognosis is a task best left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more going to disregard a small detail that can separate one decision from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that signifies that the roots also failed.

There are essentially 6 kinds of storm damage that a tree can not usually stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the entire tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the earth, resulting in the trees crown to come down or to bend strongly even though the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree crack beneath the earth, resulting in the tree leaning or swinging dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This takes place most commonly on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The entire crown effectively becomes a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can not.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a lot of secondary effects such as massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a much greater danger to drop even if it made it through the initial windstorm.
