Do You Require A Tree Felling Or Disassembling

The tree surgeons that we work with are are professionals in the accurate taking down of hazardous, big and difficult trees inside cramped places. They’ve felled trees in difficult places and are adept at manoeuvring through tight spaces.

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

Tree Felling

This is where the tree is cut from the base and then it falls to the ground in a controlled fashion. This technique is only used when the risk that the tree could cause injury to anyone or damage property is very low. 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 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. Untrained individuals should not attempt to 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 have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact they’re generally considered as being strong and everlasting, trees can certainly end up being at risk in adverse weather such as storms & strong winds. Violent storms and strong winds have been seen to wipe out trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the ground, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times following a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the danger & inconvenience it also will lead to costly renovations.

The most difficult decision following a storm is not specifically how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty simple. The harder decision is whether some of the trees left standing can be saved.

Some trees that have been partly harmed in the storm may present a future threat and may need to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid placing people & property at risk in many months or even years to come.

Some other trees can be conserved by being pruned back, with their most damaged parts being ‘cut off’ similar to how an operating surgeon might take off a gangrenous limb. Others will require to get staked down with guy cables or supported with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree specialists can be trusted to take away the injured trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building crews easy access to the property to begin maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power lines.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

Every one of these types of problem results in an unique outlook for the trees’ future survival, however making a prognosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more likely to disregard a small detail that can differentiate one conclusion from another, such as noticing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which reveals that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially six kinds of storm damage which a tree can not usually sustain:

  • Blowovers – this is where the entire tree falls down.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, causing the trees crown to fall or bend violently even though the bottom section continues to be standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree break below the ground, leading to the tree bending or swaying dramatically.
  • Limb Failures – is where several branches of the tree detach.
  • Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays standing. This takes place most typically on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The entire crown effectively turns into a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
  • Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a lot of secondary effects including 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 made it through the initial storm.
