Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm
Despite the fact that they are generally viewed as being really sturdy and timeless, trees can certainly become defenceless in extreme weather conditions such as storms & strong winds. Fierce storms and strong winds have been known to annihilate trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.
How many times following a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the danger & inconvenience it also will lead to costly renovations.
The toughest decision following a storm is not specifically how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that is fairly simple. The more difficult decision is whether some of the trees left upright can be saved.
Certain trees that have been partly injured in the windstorm may well present a future hazard and may need to be cut down and took away to avoid putting people & property at risk in several months or even years ahead.
Other trees maybe preserved by being pruned back, with their most injured sections being ‘severed’ much like how a surgeon would take off a gangrenous limb. Others will need to be staked with guy wires or supported with various other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree professionals can be trusted to get rid of the damaged trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building and construction teams easy access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage
Each one of these sorts of damage causes a distinct outlook for the trees’ long term survival, but making a prognosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more going to disregard a small detail that might just separate one verdict from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that reveals that the roots also failed.
There are essentially six forms of storm damage that a tree can’t usually sustain:
- Blowovers – this is where the whole tree comes down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, causing the trees crown to fall or to sag violently whilst the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
- Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree break under the soil, leading to the tree pitching or swaying noticeably.
- Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
- Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays up. This happens most commonly on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The whole crown basically transforms into a weathervane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can’t.
- Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a several additional effects such as massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a much greater danger to drop despite the fact that it got through the original windstorm.
