Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact that they’re often seen as being really strong and permanent, trees may come to be vulnerable in extreme weather like strong winds and storms. Powerful storms and extreme winds have been known to wipe out trees and tear even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them crashing to the earth, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times soon after strong winds have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Apart from the inconvenience and danger it also can lead to expensive restorations.

The hardest option after a storm isn’t specifically how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty easy. The more difficult decision is if some of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been partly damaged in the windstorm might present a possible future threat and may have to be disassembled and removed to prevent placing people & property in danger in months or even years in the future.

Some other trees maybe saved by being trimmed back, with their worst damaged sections being ‘severed’ much like how a surgeon might remove a gangrenous leg. Some other may need to get staked down with guy cables or held up with additional supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree specialists can be relied upon to clear away the affected trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the construction companies access to the building to start repair work on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

Each of these kinds of damage creates a distinct outlook for the trees’ future survival, but making a diagnosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more likely to fail to notice a small detail that could differentiate one decision from another, such as noticing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which reveals that the roots also failed.

There are generally six types of storm damage which a tree can’t generally sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, causing the crown to come down or angle strongly whilst the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree snap beneath the soil, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This takes place most typically on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The complete crown basically transforms into a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening hits have a number of additional effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a considerably increased danger to drop despite the fact that it made it through the initial windstorm.
