Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they are generally viewed as being solid and timeless, trees may become defenceless in extreme weather conditions like strong winds & storms. Violent storms and extreme winds have been seen to annihilate trees and tear even the healthiest & sturdiest trees from the soil, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times shortly after a storm have you heard of dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the danger and inconvenience it also may cause costly repair work.

The toughest option after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s fairly straightforward. The more challenging possibility is whether some of the trees left upright are salvageable.

Various trees that have been partially affected in the storm might present a potential threat and may need to be chopped down and removed to avoid placing property & people at risk in many months or years to come.

Some other trees could be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected sections being ‘amputated’ exactly like how a surgeon might take off a gangrenous leg. Some other may need to get staked with guy cables or supported with additional supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they need to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on property, our tree contractors can be trusted to get rid of the broken trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction companies easy access to the property to start maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Every one of these kinds of problem results in a distinct outlook for the trees’ long term survival, but making a diagnosis is a job best left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to overlook a small detail that might separate one verdict from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.

There are basically 6 kinds of storm damage that a tree can not usually sustain:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, resulting in the crown to come down or bend strongly whilst the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree crack below the soil, leading to the tree pitching or swaying dramatically.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays standing. This takes place most commonly on trees with very unbalanced crowns. The full crown effectively turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening hits have a many additional effects like 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 higher danger to drop even though it endured the original storm.
