Need A Tree Disassembling Or Felling
Our tree surgeons are pros in the correct dismantling of complicated, large and unsafe trees within cramped locations. They’ve felled trees in difficult places and are adept at manoeuvring through tight spaces.
A variety of tree removal solutions can be utilised 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 when the tree is cut at its base and then it falls to the ground without damaging anything. This method of removing a tree is best used when there is no risk that it will cause any damage to people or property. This technique is not always possible for large trees, as it takes 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 takes skill to remove trees in sections. Starting at the top of the tree, sections are cut and then lowered to safety and under control using lowering ropes/slings and sometimes a crane.
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 help prevent the fall going wrong, they will always use ropes and slings.



Storm Damage Tree Removal
If you are concerned about a tree that has fallen or has been damaged from lightning or a storm, we recommend calling 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 have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm
Although they’re often considered as being durable and permanent, trees can certainly end up being at risk in adverse weather conditions like strong winds & storms. Violent storms and extreme winds have been seen to wipe out trees and tear even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the ground, 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 dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the danger and inconvenience it also can result in expensive repair work.
The hardest option after a storm is not specifically how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s fairly easy. The tougher decision is whether or not any of the trees still standing can be saved.
Various trees that have been partially damaged in the storm can present a potential future threat and might need to be cut down and took out to avoid placing property & people in danger in several months or even years ahead.
Other trees could be saved by being pruned back, with their worst affected parts being ‘amputated’ exactly like how a surgeon might remove a gangrenous limb. Some other may require to be staked with guy ropes or held up with various other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree experts can be relied upon to clear away the affected trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building and construction companies access to the building to begin restorations on the affected structures and power cables.
Various Kinds Of Storm Damage
All of these kinds of problem leads to a different outlook for the trees’ future survival, but forming a prognosis is a job best left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to overlook a small detail that may well differentiate one conclusion from another, such as noticing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that suggests that the roots also failed.
There are basically six sorts of storm damage that a tree can not generally sustain:
- Blowovers – these are where the whole tree comes down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the ground, leading to the trees crown to come down or to angle strongly whilst the bottom part remains standing normally.
- Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree crack under the ground, leading to the tree leaning or swinging noticeably.
- Branch Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree detach.
- Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays up. This occurs most commonly on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The whole crown effectively turns into a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can’t.
- Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, for now. Lightening hits have a number of 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 always at a very much higher risk to drop even if it made it through the initial storm.
Securing Storm Damaged Trees
Our tree contractors will not only clear away fallen trees safely and securely and without any more damage to buildings, but they will in addition be able to give functional advice on just how to save or preserve existing trees that are still standing, despite the fact that they could have been injured in the storm. Our highly professional staff can review the situation on your property and tell you which trees have experienced more than enough damage that they’d die regardless of whether they were properly raised and replanted.
