Do You Require A Tree Disassembling Or Felling

The tree surgeons that we work with are are specialists in the precise dismantling of hazardous, difficult and, large trees within confined locations. They’ve felled trees in difficult places and are adept at manoeuvring through tight spaces.

A range of tree removal methods can be employed 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 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 technique is often used in places where there is not a lot of space. Everything must be guided down to prevent any damage to property or people being injured. It takes skill to remove 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.

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

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. 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. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Though they are usually considered as being really durable and eternal, trees can certainly end up being at risk in extreme weather like strong winds and storms. Fierce storms and extreme winds have been known to annihilate trees and rip even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the ground, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times following strong winds have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the inconvenience and danger it also can result in expensive restorations.

The hardest option following a storm is not how to remove the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much easy. The more difficult decision is whether some of the trees still standing can be saved.

Various trees that have been partly affected in the windstorm might present a future risk and may well have to be chopped down and disposed of to avoid placing people and property at risk in many months or years in the future.

Other trees might be conserved by being trimmed back, with their most cracked parts being ‘severed’ just like how a surgeon may amputate a gangrenous leg. Some other may need to get staked down with guy ropes or held up with other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree specialists can be trusted to get rid of the injured trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building and construction crews access to the property to start repair work on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

Each one of these types of damage causes a varied prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, however making a diagnosis is a task best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more liable to fail to notice a small detail that might differentiate one decision from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that signifies that the roots also snapped.

There are basically 6 types of storm damage that a tree can not normally stand up to:

  • Blowovers – this is where the full tree falls down.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, leading to the trees crown to fall or to sag strongly whilst the lower section continues to be standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is when the roots of the tree split under the soil, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying considerably.
  • Branch Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree fall off.
  • Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays up. This occurs most commonly on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The full crown effectively becomes a weathervane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
  • Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a many additional 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 always at a substantially higher risk to fall even though it made it through the original windstorm.
