Need A Tree Disassembling Or Felling

The tree surgeons who work with us are professionals in the precise dismantling of difficult, large and unsafe trees inside confined locations. They are experienced in removing trees from difficult locations and can manoeuvre through tight spaces.

A variety of tree removal methods can be utilised including specialist winch operations, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or directional felling. The choice of the method will depend on the space available.

Tree Felling

This is when the tree is cut at its base and then it falls to the ground without damaging anything. This technique is only used when the risk that the tree could cause injury to anyone or damage property is very low. But, large trees may not be able to be felled in this way due to the amount of space required to fell a tree.

Tree Dismantling

This is useful to avoid any damage to property or persons, in areas where there is not a lot of space. It takes skill to remove trees in sections. Beginning at the top, the tree is cut into manageable pieces. Finally, it’s lowered safely to the ground using lowering ropes or slings. Sometimes, a crane is used.

The tree surgeons that we work with are skilled at navigating tight spaces. They use the latest rigging techniques for the safe removal of trees from your garden.

To stop it from falling in the opposite direction, they use ropes and/or slings.

Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

If you are concerned about a tree that has fallen or has been damaged from lightning or a storm, we recommend calling a qualified tree surgeon. Untrained individuals should not attempt to deal with a fallen tree as there are many objects that could be trapped underneath or around the tree, as well as any live power lines. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Managing Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they’re usually taken as being solid and permanent, trees can easily end up being at risk in extreme weather conditions like storms and strong winds. Violent storms and high winds have been seen to annihilate trees and tear even the healthiest & sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times following a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the danger and inconvenience it also can result in costly restorations.

The toughest decision after a storm is not how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s more or less easy. The more challenging decision is whether or not some of the trees remaining upright can be saved.

Some trees that have been in part harmed in the windstorm may pose a potential future risk and might have to be disassembled and disposed of to avoid putting property and people in danger in several months or years ahead.

Some other trees could be conserved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected sections being ‘amputated’ exactly like how a surgeon will remove a gangrenous limb. Others may need to be staked with guy wires or supported with various other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree specialists can be trusted to get rid of the broken trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building companies access to the building to begin repair work on the damaged properties and power lines.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each one of these sorts of problem results in a distinct diagnosis for the trees’ long term survival, but making a prognosis is a task best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more liable to miss a small detail that might just separate one decision from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that indicates that the roots also snapped.

There are generally six types of storm damage that a tree can’t generally sustain:

  • Blowovers – these are where the whole tree comes down.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, resulting in the trees crown to fall or to sag strongly whilst the bottom section continues to be standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree tear under the ground, leading to the tree bending or swinging noticeably.
  • Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
  • Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This occurs most frequently on trees with extremely unbalanced crowns. The whole crown effectively ends up being a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
  • Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a several additional effects like massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a considerably higher danger to fall even though it made it through the initial windstorm.
