Do You Require A Tree Felling Or Disassembling

The tree surgeons that we work with are are professionals in the correct dismantling of hazardous, large and awkward trees within restricted places. They are experienced in removing trees from difficult locations and can manoeuvre through tight spaces.

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

Tree Felling

This is where the tree’s base is cut and then the tree falls in a controlled way. This technique is only used when the risk that the tree could cause injury to anyone or damage property is very low. But, large trees may not be able to be felled in this way due to the amount of space required to fell a tree.

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. This is a skilled job that involves removing trees in sections. Beginning at the top, the tree is cut into manageable pieces. Finally, it’s lowered safely to the ground using lowering ropes or slings. Sometimes, a crane is used.

The tree surgeons that we work with are experts in working in tight spaces, and will safely remove trees from your garden using the latest rigging methods.

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.

Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage

If you are concerned about a tree that has fallen or has been damaged from lightning or a storm, we recommend calling a qualified tree surgeon. 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. Tree surgeons are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.

Managing Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact they are typically taken as being strong and everlasting, trees may end up being defenceless in adverse weather such as storms & strong winds. Fierce storms and high winds have been known to decimate trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them toppling to the ground, or onto vehicles, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and power lines.

How many times shortly after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it additionally may cause costly repair work.

The hardest option following a storm isn’t specifically how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that is fairly easy. The more challenging choice is if some of the trees left standing can be saved.

Some trees that have been partly affected in the storm might pose a possible future risk and might need to be cut down and took out to prevent putting people & property at risk in many months or years to come.

Some other trees can be preserved by being pruned back, with their most affected sections being ‘severed’ just like how an operating surgeon will remove a gangrenous limb. Some other may need to get staked down with guy cables or held up with various other supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree professionals can be relied upon to remove the injured trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the construction teams access to the building to begin repairs on the damaged properties and power lines.

Different Sorts Of Storm Damage

Every one of these sorts of problem causes a varied diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however making a diagnosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to fail to notice a small detail that might differentiate one verdict from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which signifies that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially 6 sorts of storm damage which a tree can not normally stand up to:

  • Blowovers – this is where the whole tree comes down.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, making the trees crown to come down or lean strongly even though the lower section remains standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree split under the ground, resulting in the tree leaning or swinging considerably.
  • Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
  • Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most frequently on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The whole crown basically ends up being a weathervane in a storm, turning to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk can not.
  • Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a many additional effects like 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 greater risk to drop even if it made it through the original storm.
