Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Even though they’re typically seen as being really durable and eternal, trees can certainly end up being at risk in extreme weather like storms & strong winds. Fierce storms and extreme winds have been known to wipe out trees and rip even the healthiest & sturdiest trees from the ground, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

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

The most difficult decision following a storm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty much simple. The more challenging choice is whether or not any of the trees remaining upright can be saved.

Some trees that have been partially affected in the storm can pose a potential threat and might have to be disassembled and disposed of to avoid placing property and people in danger in months or years in the future.

Other trees maybe preserved by being pruned back, with their most cracked sections being ‘amputated’ much like how an operating surgeon would amputate a gangrenous leg. Others may need to get staked with guy wires or held up with various other supports until they can re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree contractors can be relied upon to get rid of the affected trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the construction crews access to the property to begin restorations on the affected properties and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Every one of these kinds of damage leads to a different diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, but forming a diagnosis is a job best entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more liable to overlook a small detail that may well separate one verdict from another, such as noticing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that signifies that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially six kinds of storm damage that a tree can’t generally stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the complete tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, causing the trees crown to come down or to sag strongly while the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree split under the soil, leading to the tree leaning or swinging significantly.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This occurs most commonly on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The complete crown essentially turns into a weathervane in a storm, 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, at the moment. Lightening hits have a many additional effects such as massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a considerably higher risk to drop despite the fact that it made it through the initial storm.
