Need A Tree Disassembling Or Felling

The tree surgeons who work with us are professionals in the precise taking down of dangerous, big and cumbersome trees within restricted locations. They’ve felled trees in difficult places and are adept at manoeuvring through tight spaces.

A range of tree removal techniques can be used such as directional felling, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or specialist winch operations. It all depends on the available space as to which method they will use.

Tree Felling

This is where the tree’s base is cut and then the tree falls in a controlled way. This technique is only used when the risk that the tree could cause injury to anyone or damage property is very low. For large trees, however, this is often impossible due to the need for a lot of space for them to fall.

Tree Dismantling

This is useful to avoid any damage to property or persons, in areas where there is not a lot of space. This is a skilled job that involves removing 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 skilled at navigating tight spaces. They use the latest rigging techniques for the safe removal of trees from your garden.

They use ropes, slings and wedges to help the tree fall in the right direction.

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 Storm Damaged Trees

Even though they’re usually taken as being durable and timeless, trees can come to be vulnerable in extreme weather conditions such as storms & strong winds. Intense storms and very high winds have been seen to annihilate trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times following strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Apart from the inconvenience & danger it also will result in costly restorations.

The hardest decision after a windstorm is not how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty much simple. The tougher decision is whether or not any of the trees remaining upright are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been partially damaged in the windstorm may well present a potential threat and may well have to be chopped down and disposed of to prevent placing property and people in danger in several months or years ahead.

Other trees may be saved by being trimmed back, with their worst affected parts being ‘severed’ just like how an operating surgeon will remove a gangrenous limb. Some other will need to be staked with guy cables or supported with various other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree contractors can be trusted to remove the injured trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the construction teams easy access to the building to begin repairs on the affected structures and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each one of these kinds of damage results in a varied prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, but making a diagnosis is a task best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more liable to disregard a small detail that might separate one decision from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean that signifies that the roots also failed.

There are essentially 6 kinds of storm damage that a tree can’t generally endure:

  • Blowovers – this is where the full tree falls down.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, causing the crown to come down or sag strongly while the lower part remains standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree break under the ground, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying considerably.
  • Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree fall off.
  • Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays up. This occurs most frequently on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The full crown basically transforms into a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
  • Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, for now. Lightening hits have a several additional effects like opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a considerably increased risk to fall even if it survived the original windstorm.
