Need A Tree Felling Or Disassembling

The tree surgeons with whom we work are professionals in the accurate dismantling of large, dangerous and cumbersome trees inside restricted areas. They’ve felled trees in difficult places and are adept at manoeuvring through tight spaces.

A variety of tree removal techniques maybe used including 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 method is only used in areas where the tree is not likely to cause damage to property or people. It is sometimes impossible to remove large trees in this way, as they require a lot of space 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. 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 have the ability to navigate through tight spaces and can safely remove trees from your garden using the most recent rigging techniques.

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

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. 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. Tree surgeons are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm

Despite the fact that they are generally taken as being really sturdy and permanent, trees may become defenceless in extreme weather such as storms and strong winds. Fierce storms and strong winds have been known to annihilate trees and uplift even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times following a storm have you heard of dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the inconvenience & danger it also will result in expensive repair work.

The toughest option after a windstorm is not how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty easy. The harder decision is whether any of the trees left standing can be saved.

Some trees that have been partially injured in the windstorm may pose a potential future threat and may need to be chopped down and took out to avoid putting property and people at risk in months or even years ahead.

Some other trees can be saved by being trimmed back, with their worst injured parts being ‘amputated’ similar to how a surgeon might take off a gangrenous limb. Others may need to be staked down with guy cables or held up with additional supports up until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree contractors can be trusted to clear away the damaged trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building teams access to the property to start repairs on the affected buildings and power lines.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of problem leads to a distinct outlook for the trees’ future survival, however forming a prognosis is a task best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more liable to overlook a small detail that may well separate one decision from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that suggests that the roots also snapped.

There are basically six kinds of storm damage that a tree can not generally stand up to:

  • Blowovers – these are where the whole tree comes down.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, causing the trees crown to fall or to sag strongly even though the lower section continues to be standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree tear below the soil, resulting in the tree bending or swaying noticeably.
  • Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree break off.
  • Crown Twists – is where 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 essentially ends up being a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk can not.
  • Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a several additional effects such as 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 increased danger to drop even though it got through the original windstorm.
