Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees
Although they’re typically seen as being really sturdy and everlasting, trees can certainly come to be at risk in adverse weather conditions such as storms and strong winds. Violent storms and high winds have been seen to wipe out trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them plunging 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 damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the inconvenience and danger it additionally will cause costly renovations.
The most difficult decision after a storm is not how to remove the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s more or less straightforward. The more challenging possibility is whether any of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.
Certain trees that have been in part injured in the storm may well pose a future hazard and might need to be disassembled and removed to avoid putting people & property at risk in months or years ahead.
Other trees could be conserved by being pruned back, with their most cracked parts being ‘severed’ similar to how a surgeon will take off a gangrenous leg. Some other may need to get staked down 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 storm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree experts can be trusted to clear away the broken trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction teams access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power cables.
Various Types Of Storm Damage
Every one of these sorts of damage causes a varied prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a diagnosis is a task best entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more going to fail to notice a small detail that could separate one decision from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that shows that the roots also failed.
There are essentially 6 sorts of storm damage that a tree can not generally stand up to:
- Blowovers – this is where the whole tree is uprooted.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the ground, causing the crown to fall or to angle strongly while the lower section continues to be standing normally.
- Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree tear beneath the ground, resulting in the tree bending or swaying significantly.
- Branch Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree detach.
- Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays up. This occurs most commonly on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The whole crown essentially ends up being a weathervane in a storm, 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 up, for now. Lightening hits have a several additional effects like 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 very much greater risk to fall even if it endured the initial storm.
