Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Dealing With Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact that they are typically seen as being really solid and permanent, trees may become at risk in extreme weather such as storms and strong winds. Fierce storms and very high winds have been seen to annihilate trees and uplift even the healthiest and sturdiest trees from the soil, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

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

Certain trees that have been partially injured in the windstorm can pose a possible future hazard and may have to be cut down and took away to prevent putting property and people at risk in months or even years ahead.

Some other trees could be saved by being trimmed back, with their worst injured parts being ‘amputated’ much like how a surgeon will take off a gangrenous leg. Some other may require to get staked down with guy wires or supported with various other supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of damage leads to a varied prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, however making a prognosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more going 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 generally 6 types of storm damage which a tree can not typically stand up to:

• Blowovers – this is where the whole tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the earth, resulting in the crown to come down or lean violently whilst the lower section stays standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree snap underneath the earth, resulting in the tree leaning or swinging dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree break off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most typically on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The whole crown basically ends up being a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk is unable to.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening hits have a several additional effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a considerably increased risk to fall despite the fact that it made it through the initial windstorm.
