Do You Require A Tree Disassembling Or Felling

The tree surgeons who work with us are pros in the precise taking down of complicated, unsafe and big trees within cramped areas. They are experienced in removing trees from difficult locations and can manoeuvre through tight spaces.

A range of tree removal solutions maybe chosen including directional felling, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or specialist winch operations. The technique used will largely depend on the amount of space available.

Tree Felling

This is where the tree can be cut at the base and it will then fall to the ground without any damage. This method is only used in areas where the tree is not likely to cause damage to property or people. This technique is not always possible for large trees, as it takes a lot of space for them to fall.

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. It takes a lot of skill to cut down 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.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact they are typically viewed as being really solid and eternal, trees can end up being vulnerable in extreme weather conditions like strong winds and storms. Violent storms and high winds have been known to wipe out trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times soon after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the danger & inconvenience it also can result in expensive repair work.

The toughest decision after a windstorm is not specifically how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty much straightforward. The tougher decision is if some of the trees left standing can be saved.

Some trees that have been moderately affected in the windstorm may pose a potential future threat and may need to be chopped down and took out to avoid putting people & property at risk in months or even years to come.

Other trees maybe conserved by being pruned back, with their worst injured sections being ‘severed’ much like how a surgeon will take off a gangrenous limb. Others will need to get staked down with guy ropes or supported with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree contractors can be relied upon to get rid of the damaged trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the building companies easy access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Various Sorts Of Storm Damage

Every one of these sorts of problem creates a varied outlook for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job best left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to overlook a small detail that may well separate one verdict from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which shows that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially 6 sorts of storm damage which a tree can not normally stand up to:

  • Blowovers – this is where the complete tree falls down.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, causing the crown to come down or sag violently whilst the lower part remains standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree split underneath the earth, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying considerably.
  • Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree fall off.
  • Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns enough to splinter, but stays standing. This takes place most typically on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The complete crown ultimately turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind in a manner in which 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 including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a much increased danger to fall even if it survived the initial windstorm.

Maintaining Storm Damaged Trees

Our tree contractors will not only remove fallen trees safely and with no additional damage to property, but will also have the ability to give functional guidance on how to save or preserve existing trees that are still standing, even though they could have been harmed in the windstorm.
