Do You Need A Tree Disassembling Or Felling

Our tree surgeons are professionals in the correct taking down of difficult, large and unsafe trees inside restricted locations. They are experienced in removing trees from difficult locations and can manoeuvre through tight spaces.

A variety of tree removal techniques may be used such as the use of cranes, specialist winch operations, directional felling or sectional dismantling. The technique used will largely depend on the amount of 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 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

This technique is often used in places where there is not a lot of space. Everything must be guided down to prevent any damage to property or people being injured. 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 experts in working in tight spaces, and will safely remove trees from your garden using the latest rigging methods.

To help prevent the fall going wrong, they will always use ropes and slings.

Managing Storm Damaged Trees

Even though they’re usually viewed as being durable and timeless, trees may become defenceless in adverse weather conditions such as strong winds and storms. Violent storms and strong winds have been known to wipe out trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the ground, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times shortly after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Apart from the danger and inconvenience it also may lead to costly restorations.

The hardest option after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is fairly straightforward. The more challenging choice is if any of the trees left standing are salvageable.

Various trees that have been in part damaged in the windstorm may present a future hazard and may well need to be cut down and removed to avoid putting people and property in danger in months or years to come.

Some other trees maybe conserved by being trimmed back, with their most damaged sections being ‘cut off’ exactly like how a surgeon may amputate a gangrenous limb. Others might require to get staked down with guy wires or supported with other supports until they can re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree professionals can be relied upon to get rid of the injured trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the construction crews easy access to the building to start maintenance and repairs on the affected properties and power cables.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

Every one of these kinds of damage results in a different outlook for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a diagnosis is a task best entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to miss a small detail that can differentiate one decision from another, such as noticing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which shows that the roots also snapped.

There are generally 6 kinds of storm damage which a tree can not usually endure:

  • Blowovers – these are where the entire tree is uprooted.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, leading to the crown to come down or lean strongly whilst the bottom section remains standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree break below the soil, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying significantly.
  • Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
  • Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays standing. This takes place most typically on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The entire crown essentially transforms into a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
  • Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening hits have a several secondary effects including opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a much greater danger to drop even if it endured the initial windstorm.

Maintaining Storm Damaged Trees
