Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Even though they are often viewed as being sturdy and permanent, trees can certainly come to be vulnerable in extreme weather such as strong winds and storms. Violent storms and high winds have been known to annihilate trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them crashing to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the inconvenience and danger it also will lead to expensive repair work.

The toughest option following a windstorm isn’t how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is pretty much simple. The more difficult choice is whether some of the trees remaining upright are salvageable.

Some trees that have been partially damaged in the windstorm might pose a possible future threat and might have to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid placing people and property in danger in many months or years ahead.

Other trees might be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst cracked sections being ‘amputated’ similar to how a surgeon might remove a gangrenous limb. Some other might require to get staked down with guy cables or supported with other supports up until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree professionals can be relied upon to get rid of the affected trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building teams easy access to the building to start repair work on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of damage leads to an unique diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a prognosis is a task best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more going to disregard a small detail that might separate one verdict from another, such as noticing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.

There are basically six forms of storm damage that a tree can not normally stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the complete tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, causing the crown to come down or to angle violently while the bottom section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree split under the ground, leading to the tree pitching or swinging significantly.
• Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This occurs most commonly on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The complete crown effectively becomes a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting 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 standing, for now. Lightening hits have a lot of secondary effects including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a much increased risk to fall even if it made it through the initial windstorm.
