Storms can cause significant tree damage very quickly, and the damage isn't always obvious at first glance.
What to look for after severe weather
- Broken or hanging branches
- Split stems or major limbs
- A crown that looks visibly thinner or disturbed
- A tree leaning that didn't lean before
- Lifted or disturbed soil around the base
- Trees blocking a driveway, path or access route
Why storm-damaged timber can be dangerous
Damaged trees can contain timber under significant tension, which means a branch or section can move or fail unexpectedly. If a tree looks unstable, keep people and vehicles away from the immediate area and contact an experienced tree surgeon rather than attempting to deal with it yourself.
