Managing Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact they’re often viewed as being durable and permanent, trees can become defenceless in adverse weather like storms and strong winds. Fierce storms and high winds have been known to decimate trees and tear even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times soon after strong winds have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it also will result in expensive repair work.

The hardest option following a windstorm isn’t specifically how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that is fairly easy. The more difficult decision is if any of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been in part damaged in the storm may present a possible future hazard and may need to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid placing property and people at risk in many months or years to come.

Other trees could be conserved by being pruned back, with their most affected sections being ‘severed’ exactly like how a surgeon may amputate a gangrenous leg. Others might require to be staked with guy wires or supported with other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree professionals can be trusted to take away the injured trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the construction companies access to the building to start restorations on the damaged buildings and power lines.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of damage leads to a distinct prognosis for the trees’ future survival, however making a diagnosis is a job best left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more likely to fail to notice a small detail that can differentiate one verdict from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which reveals that the roots also snapped.

There are generally 6 forms of storm damage which a tree can’t normally stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the full tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, making the trees crown to fall or sag violently even though the lower part stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree snap underneath the earth, resulting in the tree bending or swinging significantly.
• Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays up. This takes place most frequently on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The full crown effectively transforms into a weathervane 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 up, for now. Lightening hits have a many secondary effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a substantially higher danger to fall even though it made it through the initial storm.
