Do You Require A Tree Disassembling Or Felling
The tree surgeons who work with us are experts in the accurate dismantling of awkward, unsafe and big 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 solutions can be utilised such as specialist winch operations, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or directional felling. The technique they choose will depend on how much space is available.
Tree Felling
This is where the tree’s base is cut and then the tree falls in a controlled way. This method of removing a tree is best used when there is no risk that it will cause any damage to people or property. It is sometimes impossible to remove large trees in this way, as they require a lot of space to fall.
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 takes skill to remove 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
We recommend that you contact a professional tree surgeon to help you with any fallen trees or trees damaged from storms or lightening. It is very dangerous for non-trained people to try and 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 are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees
Despite the fact that they are usually taken as being really strong and timeless, trees can certainly end up being vulnerable in extreme weather conditions like strong winds & storms. Fierce storms and high winds have been known to annihilate trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.
How many times soon after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the inconvenience and danger it also can cause expensive repairs.
The most difficult option following a storm is not specifically how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty much easy. The more difficult decision is if any of the trees left upright can be saved.
Certain trees that have been partially harmed in the storm can present a potential future threat and may have to be chopped down and took out to avoid placing people & property in danger in several months or years to come.
Other trees may be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst injured sections being ‘amputated’ much like how an operating surgeon would remove a gangrenous leg. Some other will need to be staked with guy wires or supported with additional supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree professionals can be trusted to clear away the affected trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction companies easy access to the building to start repairs on the damaged buildings and power cables.
Various Types Of Storm Damage
Every one of these sorts of problem results in a different prognosis for the trees’ future survival, but forming a diagnosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more going to overlook a small detail that may well differentiate one verdict from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.
There are essentially 6 types of storm damage that a tree can not usually sustain:
- Blowovers – these are where the full tree comes down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, making the crown to fall or to sag strongly whilst the lower section remains standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree tear under the ground, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying considerably.
- Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This happens most frequently on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The full crown essentially turns into a weathervane 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 hits have a many secondary effects such as 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 despite the fact that it got through the original storm.
Maintaining Storm Damaged Trees
Our tree experts will not only dispose of fallen trees safely and securely and with no more damage to buildings, but will additionally have the ability to give practical suggestions on just how to save or preserve existing trees that are still standing, even though they might have been broken in the storm. Our highly experienced team can evaluate the scenario on your property and explain to you which trees have sustained a lot of damage that they would die despite the fact that they were carefully raised and replanted.
