Because of the many objects and live power lines that may be underneath or around a tree it is dangerous for untrained people to attempt to approach them. Tree surgeons are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm

Even though they are typically seen as being strong and eternal, trees may become vulnerable in adverse weather conditions such as storms and strong winds. Violent storms and high winds have been seen to decimate trees and tear even the healthiest & sturdiest trees from the ground, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times after a storm have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience and danger it additionally can result in costly restorations.

The toughest option following a windstorm is not specifically how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty much easy. The harder decision is if some of the trees remaining upright are salvageable.

Various trees that have been partially damaged in the storm may present a potential future threat and may have to be disassembled and disposed of to prevent putting property & people at risk in many months or years in the future.

Other trees could be conserved by being trimmed back, with their most injured sections being ‘cut off’ similar to how an operating surgeon would remove a gangrenous leg. Others might require to get staked with guy cables or held up with additional supports until they can re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree experts can be trusted to clear away the injured trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction crews easy access to the building to start repair work on the affected structures and power cables.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of problem creates a varied outlook for the trees’ potential survival, however making a diagnosis is a job ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to disregard a small detail that might differentiate one conclusion from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which suggests that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially six kinds of storm damage which a tree can not usually stand up to:

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree comes down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the earth, leading to the crown to come down or sag strongly whilst the bottom section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree snap below the earth, leading to the tree bending or swaying considerably.
• Limb Failures – is where several branches of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays up. This happens most typically on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The whole crown basically becomes a weathervane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can not.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, for now. Lightening strikes have a several additional effects such as opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a substantially higher danger to drop even if it got through the initial storm.
