Do You Require A Tree Disassembling Or Felling

The tree surgeons that we work with are are experts in the correct taking down of big, dangerous and awkward 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 may be used including the use of cranes, specialist winch operations, directional felling or sectional dismantling. The choice of the method will depend on the 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 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. This is a skilled job that involves removing 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 prevent the the tree falling in the wrong direction, they always use ropes and slings. They may also use wedges to stop it from going the other way.

Storm Damage Tree Removal

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.

Managing Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they are usually considered as being really sturdy and permanent, trees can certainly end up being at risk in extreme weather like strong winds & storms. Intense storms and strong winds have been known to decimate trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times soon after strong winds have you heard about dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. Apart from the inconvenience & danger it also can lead to expensive renovations.

The toughest decision after a storm isn’t specifically how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s fairly easy. The harder decision is if any of the trees remaining upright can be saved.

Various trees that have been partly affected in the windstorm may well pose a potential future hazard and may need to be chopped down and disposed of to prevent putting people & property in danger in several months or even years to come.

Other trees might be saved by being pruned back, with their worst injured parts being ‘amputated’ just like how an operating surgeon would amputate a gangrenous limb. Others may need to be staked down with guy cables or supported with other supports until they can re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on premises, our tree contractors can be trusted to remove the injured trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building companies access to the property to start maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power lines.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

Each of these types of damage creates a varied prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, however forming a prognosis is a job best left to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more liable to overlook a small detail that can separate one verdict from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which indicates that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially six sorts of storm damage which a tree can’t normally endure:

  • Blowovers – this is where the entire tree is uprooted.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the earth, leading to the crown to come down or bend strongly whilst the bottom section continues to be standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree split under the earth, resulting in the tree bending or swaying noticeably.
  • Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree fall off.
  • Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to splinter, but stays standing. This takes place most frequently on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The entire crown essentially becomes a weathervane in a storm, twisting 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 standing, for now. Lightening hits have a several secondary effects including 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 greater danger to drop despite the fact that it survived the initial windstorm.
