A range of tree removal methods can be utilised such as sectional dismantling, directional felling, specialist winch operations or the use of cranes. The choice of the method will depend on the 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 is only done in areas that are safe from any potential damage to property or others. For large trees, however, this is often impossible due to the need for a lot of space for them 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 is difficult to dismantle 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.

Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees
Although they’re typically seen as being really solid and eternal, trees may come to be vulnerable in extreme weather such as strong winds and storms. Fierce storms and strong winds have been known to annihilate trees and tear even the healthiest & sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.
How many times soon after a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the inconvenience & danger it additionally may cause expensive repair work.
The hardest decision following a windstorm isn’t how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s more or less straightforward. The more difficult choice is whether some of the trees still upright are salvageable.
Various trees that have been in part affected in the windstorm may well present a potential future hazard and may have to be cut down and took out to avoid placing property & people in danger in months or years in the future.
Some other trees can be saved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected parts being ‘amputated’ much like how a surgeon might remove a gangrenous leg. Others will need to get staked with guy wires or held up with additional supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree specialists can be trusted to remove the broken trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the construction teams access to the property to begin restorations on the damaged properties and power lines.
Different Sorts Of Storm Damage
Each of these sorts of problem creates a different prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, but making a prognosis is a job best left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to overlook a small detail that can differentiate one verdict from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which shows that the roots also failed.
There are generally six sorts of storm damage which a tree can’t normally stand up to:
- Blowovers – these are where the entire tree comes down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, making the trees crown to come down or to angle strongly while the lower section remains standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree crack below the ground, leading to the tree pitching or swinging considerably.
- Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree detach.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays standing. This takes place most typically on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The entire crown essentially turns into a weather vane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
- Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening strikes have a lot of secondary effects like 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 considerably greater danger to fall even if it made it through the initial windstorm.
