Do You Need A Tree Felling Or Disassembling

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

A range of tree removal solutions maybe utilised including specialist winch operations, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or directional felling. It all depends on the available space as to which method they will use.

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 is only done in areas that are safe from any potential damage to property or others. 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 can be used when there isn’t enough space to simply fell the tree. The entire process must be carefully guided to avoid any injury to people or damage to property. It is difficult to dismantle trees in sections. Start at the top of the tree and cut into manageable sections. Then, safely and under control, the tree is lowered to ground using lowering ropes and/or slings. In some cases, a crane may be 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 prevent the the tree falling in the wrong direction, they always use ropes and slings. They may also use wedges to stop it from going the other way.

Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

If you have and fallen trees or any damaged trees from a storm or lightning, you should call a qualified tree surgeon. Untrained persons should never attempt to deal with a tree that has fallen because of all the objects that might be under or around it and any live power lines. Tree surgeons are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Dealing With Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact they’re generally seen as being really solid and everlasting, trees may end up being at risk in extreme weather such as storms & strong winds. Fierce storms and strong winds have been known to wipe out trees and tear even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times shortly after strong winds have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the danger & inconvenience it also can result in costly restorations.

The hardest option following a storm is not specifically how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that is more or less simple. The tougher decision is if any of the trees left standing can be saved.

Some trees that have been moderately damaged in the windstorm might pose a possible future risk and may need to be cut down and took out to prevent putting property & people at risk in several months or years in the future.

Other trees might be saved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected sections being ‘cut off’ similar to how a surgeon might amputate a gangrenous limb. Some other will require to get staked with guy ropes or held up with other supports until they can re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree professionals can be relied upon to take away the damaged trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building and construction teams easy access to the building to begin restorations on the damaged properties and power cables.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Every one of these sorts of problem causes an unique prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, however making a diagnosis is a task best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more going to overlook a small detail that might differentiate one verdict from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that signifies that the roots also failed.

There are basically six sorts of storm damage that a tree can’t generally endure:

  • Blowovers – this is where the whole tree is uprooted.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the earth, making the trees crown to come down or to bend violently whilst the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree tear under the earth, leading to the tree bending or swaying dramatically.
  • Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree break off.
  • Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays up. This occurs most commonly on trees with extremely unbalanced crowns. The whole crown effectively turns into a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
  • Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, for now. Lightening strikes have a several additional effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a very much higher danger to drop despite the fact that it endured the original windstorm.
