Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees
Although they are generally viewed as being really durable and permanent, trees can certainly become defenceless in adverse weather conditions like storms and strong winds. Fierce storms and very high winds have been seen to wipe out trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the ground, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.
How many times shortly after a storm have you heard of dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger and inconvenience it also will cause costly renovations.
The most difficult option after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much simple. The tougher decision is whether any of the trees left standing can be saved.
Certain trees that have been partly affected in the windstorm might present a possible future threat and might need to be disassembled and disposed of to prevent placing property and people in danger in many months or years to come.
Other trees might be preserved by being trimmed back, with their most injured parts being ‘amputated’ just like how a surgeon may amputate a gangrenous limb. Some other will need to get staked down with guy wires or held up with other supports until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to land on buildings, our tree professionals can be relied upon to take away the injured trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the building and construction teams easy access to the building to begin restorations on the damaged properties and power cables.
Different Types Of Storm Damage
Each of these types of damage causes an unique outlook for the trees’ future survival, however forming a prognosis is a task best left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more going to fail to notice a small detail that may well differentiate one conclusion from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that signifies that the roots also failed.

- Blowovers – these are where the entire tree comes down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the ground, making the trees crown to come down or to sag strongly whilst the lower part continues to be standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree tear beneath the ground, leading to the tree leaning or swinging considerably.
- Limb Failures – is where several branches of the tree break off.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This occurs most typically on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The entire crown effectively turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting 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 strikes have a many additional effects including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a much higher risk to fall even though it survived the original windstorm.
