Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Even though they are often seen as being sturdy and permanent, trees can come to be defenceless in adverse weather conditions such as storms & strong winds. Violent storms and very high winds have been known to annihilate trees and uplift even the healthiest & sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times soon after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the danger and inconvenience it additionally will cause costly renovations.

The most difficult decision after a windstorm is not specifically how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty much easy. The tougher choice is whether any of the trees still upright can be saved.

Various trees that have been partly affected in the storm may well present a possible future hazard and might have to be disassembled and removed to prevent placing property and people at risk in several months or even years in the future.

Other trees maybe preserved by being pruned back, with their most affected parts being ‘cut off’ just like how an operating surgeon will remove a gangrenous leg. Others may need to be staked with guy ropes or held up with other supports until they can re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree contractors can be trusted to get rid of the damaged trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the construction teams access to the property to begin repairs on the affected structures and power lines.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

All of these types of problem causes a different prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, however forming a prognosis is a task best left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more liable to overlook a small detail that might separate one verdict from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which reveals that the roots also failed.

There are basically 6 sorts of storm damage which a tree can not normally sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the earth, leading to the crown to fall or to lean strongly while the lower part remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree break under the earth, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays up. This happens most commonly on trees with very unbalanced crowns. The entire crown basically ends up being a weathervane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow 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 strikes have a number of secondary effects including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a very much higher danger to drop even though it got through the initial storm.
