Need A Tree Disassembling Or Felling
Our tree surgeons are experts in the correct taking down of big, dangerous and difficult trees inside cramped locations. They can handle difficult situations, and they are able to navigate tight spaces. This allows them to keep noise and disruption down to a minimum.
A variety of tree removal techniques may be used such as specialist winch operations, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or directional felling. 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 method of removing a tree is best used when there is no risk that it will cause any damage to people or property. This technique is not always possible for large trees, as it takes a lot of space for them to fall.
Tree Dismantling
It can be used when there isn’t enough space to simply fell the tree. The entire process must be carefully guided to avoid any injury to people or damage to property. 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 extremely skilled in manoeuvring through tight spaces. They also use the most up-to-date rigging techniques to remove the trees safely from your garden.
To help prevent the fall going wrong, they will always use ropes and slings.



Storm Damage Tree Removal
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. The tree surgeons have a lot of experience and are able to remove any tree debris properly.

Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm
Despite the fact they’re usually seen as being really solid and eternal, trees can easily come to be at risk in extreme weather conditions such as storms and strong winds. Intense storms and extreme winds have been known to wipe out trees and uplift even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the ground, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.
How many times following a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the danger & inconvenience it additionally will result in expensive repairs.
The toughest decision following a storm isn’t specifically how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty much straightforward. The more difficult possibility is if some of the trees left standing can be saved.
Certain trees that have been partly harmed in the storm may well present a possible future risk and might have to be cut down and removed to avoid placing people & property at risk in several months or even years to come.
Other trees maybe preserved by being pruned back, with their worst damaged sections being ‘severed’ just like how an operating surgeon may remove a gangrenous leg. Others might need to be staked with guy ropes or held up with other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.
If a storm has caused trees to land on buildings, our tree contractors can be relied upon to take away the damaged trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the construction crews easy access to the property to start restorations on the damaged properties and power cables.
Different Types Of Storm Damage
Each of these types of problem creates a different diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, but making a diagnosis is a task ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more likely to disregard a small detail that might just differentiate one decision from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which indicates that the roots also snapped.
There are basically 6 kinds of storm damage which a tree can’t normally sustain:
- Blowovers – this is where the whole tree is uprooted.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, resulting in the trees crown to fall or to lean violently while the bottom section remains standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree crack under the soil, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging noticeably.
- Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to split, but stays up. This occurs most frequently on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The whole crown essentially ends up being a weathervane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk can not.
- Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening hits have a several secondary effects such as 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 considerably increased danger to drop despite the fact that it got through the original storm.
