In Florida, we have so many storms that our trees can suffer a lot of damage. Even an indirect hit from a hurricane or tropical storm, like Tampa had recently with Hurricane Ian, can cause significant breakage.
What if a limb or trunk splits, but doesn't detach? Can it be saved? The answer is "sometimes". The chances are better than saving a fallen or uprooted tree. This is not a do-it-yourself job though. You'll need to contact a Tree Service Specialist, preferably a Certified Arborist, to asses the tree to determine if it can be saved, and to oversee the project. Because they may be dealing with a few hundred or even a thousand pounds of live wood, special equipment and training are required to do this job safely. If the tree cannot be saved, you may need the Certified Arborist to provide documentation to the government to allow the tree to be removed. I have a client, Mid Florida Tree Service, Inc., that has the knowledge and experience as well as Certified Arborists to handle all of this. If the tree cannot be saved, Mid Florida Tree Service will cut the tree, haul away the debris and leave the area looking great! Give them a call at (813) 588-0315 and ask them to evaluate your split tree.
