Require A Tree Felling Or Disassembling
The tree surgeons that we work with are are pros in the correct taking down of big, unsafe and awkward trees within restricted locations. They are skilled at navigating tight spaces and minimising noise and disruption.
A variety of tree removal procedures maybe chosen including directional felling, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or specialist winch operations. The choice of the method will depend on the 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 method of removing a tree is best used when there is no risk that it will cause any damage to people or property. For large trees, however, this is often impossible due to the need for a lot of space for them 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. It is difficult to dismantle 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 are skilled at navigating tight spaces. They use the latest rigging techniques for the safe removal of trees from your garden.
They use ropes, slings and wedges to help the tree fall in the right direction.

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. The tree surgeons have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.
Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm
Even though they’re generally taken as being strong and permanent, trees can certainly end up being defenceless in extreme weather such as storms & strong winds. Fierce storms and high winds have been known to decimate trees and rip even the healthiest & sturdiest trees from the soil, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.
How many times after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the danger & inconvenience it also will cause costly repairs.
The most difficult option following a windstorm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s more or less easy. The harder decision is whether or not some of the trees remaining upright can be saved.
Some trees that have been in part injured in the storm may well present a future hazard and may need to be disassembled and took out to prevent putting property & people at risk in several months or even years to come.
Some other trees could be preserved by being pruned back, with their worst affected sections being ‘amputated’ just like how an operating surgeon might remove a gangrenous leg. Some other may require to be staked down with guy cables or held up with additional supports 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 premises, our tree specialists can be trusted to remove the affected trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building and construction companies access to the building to begin repair work on the damaged structures and power cables.
Various Types Of Storm Damage
Each of these kinds of damage creates a different diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however making a prognosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more likely to disregard a small detail that might just separate one decision from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.
There are essentially 6 forms of storm damage that a tree can not typically sustain:
- Blowovers – these are where the complete tree comes down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, causing the crown to fall or angle violently while the lower section stays standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree split underneath the soil, leading to the tree pitching or swaying significantly.
- Limb Failures – is where several branches of the tree detach.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to splinter, but stays up. This takes place most often on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The complete crown effectively becomes a weathervane in a windstorm, 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, for now. Lightening hits have a many secondary effects such as 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 danger to fall even if it survived the original storm.
