Do You Require A Tree Felling Or Disassembling

The tree surgeons with whom we work are experts in the accurate taking down of hazardous, large and cumbersome trees within cramped places. They are experienced in removing trees from difficult locations and can manoeuvre through tight spaces.

A variety of tree removal methods may be used including directional felling, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or specialist winch operations. The technique used will largely depend on the amount of space available.

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 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

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. This is a skilled job that involves removing trees in sections. Starting at the top, the tree must be cut into manageable sections. Next, the tree must be safely and securely lowered to earth using lowering ropes, slings, or in certain cases a crane.

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 stop it from falling in the opposite direction, they use ropes and/or slings.

Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

We recommend that you contact a professional tree surgeon to help you with any fallen trees or trees damaged from storms or lightening. 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. The tree surgeons have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they are typically considered as being solid and eternal, trees can certainly become at risk in extreme weather conditions such as storms and strong winds. Intense storms and high winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it also may result in expensive restorations.

The toughest option after a windstorm isn’t specifically how to dispose of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is pretty much easy. The tougher possibility is whether some of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.

Certain trees that have been partially damaged in the storm may pose a future hazard and may need to be cut down and removed to avoid putting property & people at risk in several months or years in the future.

Some other trees might be conserved by being pruned back, with their most cracked sections being ‘cut off’ just like how an operating surgeon would amputate a gangrenous leg. Others may need to be staked with guy ropes or supported with other supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree contractors can be relied upon to get rid of the broken trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building crews access to the property to begin repair work on the affected properties and power cables.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of damage results in a varied outlook for the trees’ future survival, however forming a diagnosis is a task best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more liable to overlook a small detail that could differentiate one verdict from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that suggests that the roots also failed.

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

  • Blowovers – these are where the whole tree is uprooted.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, making the trees crown to fall or lean strongly whilst the lower section continues to be standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree split below the soil, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying dramatically.
  • Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree detach.
  • Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This happens most commonly on trees with highly lopsided crowns. The whole crown effectively transforms into a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
  • Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a number of secondary effects like opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a much greater risk to drop even though it endured the original storm.
