Auckland experiences its fair share of south westerly winds, and couple this with the heavy rainfall that this region is also known for, there is the very real risk of your tree being uprooted. So, what can you do to reduce the risks of storm damage? Heaven Contracting believe the key is being well prepared. Making sure your trees are healthy and not too side heavy in the canopy or branches will significantly reduce the chance of damage. Getting the weight out of the crowns and branches before the wind and rain comes is the way to go.

All tress will have their own unique level of durability, their lifespan will vary as will the strength of their wood. Planting trees for the appropriate climate can also ensure they thrive. If you do experience a branch being severed or dangling off in a storm, it is important to have it removed correctly. A broken branch can cause the tree to have a wound and can put it in a state of stress, opening it up to risk of disease. Even if the branch has been fully severed it is important to trim the break properly to ensure the tree heals quickly.
