Storm-Damaged Trees: What to Do Immediately After High Winds or Heavy Snow
March 7, 2026
When the Weather Clears After a night of high winds or heavy snow, the damage is often quiet at first.
Tree health care requires diagnosis, not assumptions. When a tree shows signs of decline, pests, or disease, the correct approach is identifying the cause before applying treatment. Arbor Plus provides tree health care and diagnosis in Utah focused on evaluating tree condition, confirming risk, and recommending targeted care that supports long term health and safety.
An on site evaluation allows us to assess canopy condition, trunk integrity, root zone factors, and site stress to determine whether treatment is appropriate or if pruning or removal should be considered.
Tree health care services may include:
Application methods are selected based on site conditions and treatment goals and may include trunk injection, foliar spray, ground injection, deep root feeding, root pruning, or air spading.
Many tree problems present similar symptoms, including thinning canopy, leaf discoloration, dieback, and reduced growth. We evaluate visible symptoms along with soil conditions, irrigation patterns, and environmental stress to identify likely causes. When necessary, soil or foliar sampling is used to support diagnosis.
Treatment recommendations are based on the specific tree, seasonal timing, and severity of the issue. When structural risk is identified, tree health care guidance is coordinated with pruning or removal recommendations so safety is addressed alongside tree vitality.
