Do You Need A Tree Felling Or Disassembling

Our tree surgeons are experts in the correct taking down of hazardous, big and awkward trees inside restricted places. They are skilled at navigating tight spaces and minimising noise and disruption.

A variety of tree removal techniques may be used including the use of cranes, specialist winch operations, directional felling or sectional dismantling. 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 method is only used in areas where the tree is not likely to cause damage to property or people. 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 is used when space is restricted. All debris must be directed down so as to not cause any property damage or injury to others. It is difficult to dismantle 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 skilled at navigating tight spaces. They use the latest rigging techniques for the safe removal of trees from your garden.

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

Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

If you have a fallen tree, or suspect that your tree has been damaged by lightning or a storm, it is a good idea to call a certified tree surgeon. 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 have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Even though they are generally seen as being really strong and everlasting, trees can easily become defenceless in extreme weather conditions like strong winds and storms. Fierce storms and strong winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees from the ground, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times following a storm have you heard of dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the danger & inconvenience it also may cause expensive repairs.

The hardest option after a storm is not how to remove the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much easy. The more challenging possibility is whether any of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Various trees that have been partly damaged in the windstorm may pose a future risk and may have to be disassembled and disposed of to avoid placing people & property at risk in many months or years to come.

Some other trees could be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst damaged parts being ‘cut off’ similar to how a surgeon may remove a gangrenous limb. Some other will need to be staked down with guy wires or supported with other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree professionals can be trusted to remove the affected trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building crews easy access to the property to begin repair work on the damaged buildings and power lines.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Each of these sorts of damage leads to a distinct diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to miss a small detail that may well separate one decision from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that indicates that the roots also snapped.

There are basically six sorts of storm damage that a tree can not usually endure:

  • Blowovers – these are where the whole tree falls down.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, resulting in the trees crown to come down or lean strongly whilst the lower part remains standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree break below the earth, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying considerably.
  • Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree break off.
  • Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This happens most frequently on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The whole crown ultimately transforms into a weathervane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
  • Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a several secondary effects like massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a very much higher risk to fall even if it endured the initial windstorm.
