Sometimes after a storm, you are easily able to tell what damage has been done to your Overland Park landscaping. When lightning strikes one of your trees, you might recognize the commonly-known results:
Of course, if the tree has been struck down or split significantly, you should already be thinking about calling a professional tree removal company to assess the damage and the best course of action to remove the storms’ aftermath. Similarly, if there are a lot of large branches strewn about the yard, this is also cause for concern as the tree with branch loss may be unsafe and unbalanced. If you see any of these issues, call to have the tree removed immediately.
Other times, you may not be able to notice lightning damage to your trees because the lightning reach the internal parts of the tree first. If this occurs, the tree might seem to be normal for days or weeks, but it is actually slowly dying. If you are concerned or are unsure of the unseen damage potential around your property, you should have a professional inspect to make sure that a dying or dead tree is properly treated. It is best to have a dead or dying tree removed as soon as possible to prevent pilling on worse issues.
