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 is only used in areas where the tree is not likely to cause damage to property or people. 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. This is a skilled job that involves removing trees in sections. Beginning at the top, the tree is cut into manageable pieces.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Though they are typically seen as being really strong and timeless, trees can certainly become defenceless in extreme weather conditions like strong winds & storms. Intense storms and very high winds have been seen to wipe out trees and rip even the healthiest & sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

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

The most difficult option after a storm is not how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty straightforward. The more difficult decision is whether any of the trees left standing are salvageable.

Various trees that have been moderately injured in the storm can pose a future threat and might have to be chopped down and took out to avoid placing people & property at risk in several months or years in the future.

Other trees can be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst damaged sections being ‘cut off’ similar to how a surgeon would take off a gangrenous limb. Others may need to get staked down with guy wires or supported with additional supports up until they can re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree professionals can be trusted to get rid of the affected trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the construction companies access to the property to start maintenance and repairs on the damaged structures and power cables.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

All of these sorts of problem results in a different prognosis for the trees’ future survival, but making a prognosis is a task best left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more likely to miss a small detail that might just separate one decision from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that suggests that the roots also snapped.

There are basically 6 sorts of storm damage that a tree can not usually endure:

  • Blowovers – these are where the whole tree comes down.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, making the trees crown to fall or to sag violently whilst the lower part continues to be standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree snap underneath the ground, resulting in the tree bending or swaying noticeably.
  • Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree break off.
  • Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays standing. This occurs most typically on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The whole crown basically turns into a weathervane in a storm, turning 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 standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a lot of additional 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 always at a very much increased danger to drop even though it made it through the initial storm.
