Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm
Though they’re generally considered as being strong and permanent, trees can certainly end up being defenceless in extreme weather conditions such as strong winds & storms. Powerful storms and strong winds have been seen to decimate trees and tear even the healthiest & sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.
How many times soon after strong winds have you heard of dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the danger and inconvenience it also may result in costly repairs.
The most difficult decision after a windstorm is not how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty straightforward. The more difficult decision is whether or not any of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.
Some trees that have been partly harmed in the windstorm might pose a potential risk and may have to be disassembled and took away to avoid placing property and people in danger in several months or years in the future.
Other trees maybe preserved by being trimmed back, with their most cracked parts being ‘cut off’ exactly like how a surgeon would amputate a gangrenous limb. Some other might require to be staked with guy cables or supported with additional supports up until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree specialists can be relied upon to take away the broken trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building companies easy access to the property to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power cables.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage
Each of these kinds of damage causes an unique prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, but forming a prognosis is a task best entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to fail to notice a small detail that can separate one decision from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that signifies that the roots also snapped.
There are generally six sorts of storm damage that a tree can’t generally stand up to:
- Blowovers – this is where the full tree comes down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the earth, leading to the trees crown to come down or to lean violently whilst the lower section stays standing normally.
- Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree break beneath the earth, leading to the tree leaning or swinging noticeably.
- Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree detach.
- Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays standing. This takes place most typically on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The full crown ultimately becomes a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can not.
- Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a several additional effects like 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 considerably increased risk to drop even though it endured the original windstorm.
