Do You Need A Tree Disassembling Or Felling
The tree surgeons who work with us are professionals in the correct taking down of large, dangerous and awkward trees within restricted areas. They can handle difficult situations, and they are able to navigate tight spaces. This allows them to keep noise and disruption down to a minimum.
A variety of tree removal procedures maybe employed such as directional felling, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or specialist winch operations. It all depends on the available space as to which method they will use.
Tree Felling
This is where the tree’s base is cut and then the tree falls in a controlled way. 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
It is used when space is restricted. All debris must be directed down so as to not cause any property damage or injury to others. This is a skilled job that involves removing 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 extremely skilled in manoeuvring through tight spaces. They also use the most up-to-date rigging techniques to remove the trees safely from your garden.
To stop it from falling in the opposite direction, they use ropes and/or slings.
Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage
We recommend that you contact a professional tree surgeon to help you with any fallen trees or trees damaged from storms or lightening. 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. The tree surgeons have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm
Though they’re typically taken as being really durable and timeless, trees can certainly come to be defenceless in adverse weather such as storms and strong winds. Fierce storms and strong winds have been seen to wipe out trees and tear even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.
How many times following strong winds have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the danger & inconvenience it also may cause costly repairs.
The hardest option after a windstorm isn’t how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much easy. The more difficult decision is whether some of the trees left standing can be saved.
Certain trees that have been partially affected in the storm might pose a future risk and may have to be chopped down and took away to prevent putting people & property at risk in months or years to come.
Other trees can be preserved by being trimmed back, with their most affected parts being ‘severed’ much like how an operating surgeon would remove a gangrenous leg. Others will require to get staked with guy ropes or held up with various other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to have to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to land on buildings, our tree contractors can be trusted to remove the affected trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the construction crews access to the property to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power cables.
Various Sorts Of Storm Damage
Every one of these sorts of damage causes a varied prognosis for the trees’ future survival, but making a diagnosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to overlook a small detail that could differentiate one verdict from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that reveals that the roots also snapped.
There are basically six types of storm damage that a tree can not generally sustain:
- Blowovers – this is where the full tree comes down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, resulting in the trees crown to fall or to sag violently while the lower section stays standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree tear underneath the earth, resulting in the tree bending or swaying significantly.
- Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree fall off.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays standing. This occurs most frequently on trees with extremely unbalanced crowns. The full crown basically becomes a weather vane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can not.
- Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening strikes have a many secondary 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 always at a substantially increased risk to drop even though it survived the original storm.
