Storm season can bring heavy winds, rain, and severe weather that leave a path of destruction. While you cannot control the weather, you can take smart steps to protect your trees, property, and family from costly storm damage.


At SAL Tree Service, we help homeowners prepare for storms and respond quickly when damage happens. Here are practical tips on how to protect your trees and property before, during, and after a storm.


Why We Believe in Storm Preparation

Storms can uproot trees, snap large limbs, and cause falling debris that damages homes, vehicles, and power lines. Preventive tree care helps reduce the risk of property damage, protects the safety of families and neighbors, lowers the likelihood of costly emergency removals or repairs, and preserves the long-term health and structure of trees.


The best defense against storm damage starts before a storm ever hits. Professional tree inspections can identify risks such as: dead or dying branches, split or weak limbs, trees with shallow or damaged root systems, and trees leaning toward structures.


Remove Hazardous or Dead Trees

Trees that are dead, diseased, or structurally compromised are a major storm risk. These trees are more likely to fall or drop large branches during storms. If you have trees that show signs of decay, cracks, or severe leaning, it is wise to have them removed before storm season starts.


Check Tree Health After Major Storms

Even healthy trees can suffer hidden damage after a storm. After severe weather passes, inspect your property for cracked limbs or trunks, hanging branches, exposed roots or leaning trees. Early detection can prevent further damage or unexpected tree failure later. If you are unsure, call SAL Tree Service for a post-storm inspection.


Protect Young Trees and Shrubs

Do not forget about your newly planted trees and shrubs. They are more vulnerable to wind and heavy rain. At SAL Tree Service we recommend installing sturdy stakes or guy wires without restricting growth, using mulch around the base to retain moisture and prevent soil erosion, and keeping shrubs pruned for balanced growth.
