Do You Require A Tree Felling Or Disassembling
The tree surgeons who work with us are professionals in the accurate dismantling of unsafe, big and cumbersome trees inside cramped areas. 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 range of tree removal procedures may be employed 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 when the tree is cut at its base and then it falls to the ground without damaging anything. This method is only used in areas where the tree is not likely to cause damage to property or people. 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. 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 skilled at navigating tight spaces. They use the latest rigging techniques for the safe removal of trees from your garden.
To help prevent the fall going wrong, they will always use ropes and slings.
Storm Damage Tree Removal
We recommend that you contact a professional tree surgeon to help you with any fallen trees or trees damaged from storms or lightening. 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 have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Managing Storm Damaged Trees
Even though they’re often seen as being really strong and everlasting, trees may end up being at risk in adverse weather such as storms & strong winds. Powerful storms and strong winds have been known to wipe out trees and tear even the healthiest & sturdiest trees out of the soil, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.
How many times soon after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the inconvenience and danger it also may cause costly renovations.
The most difficult option after a storm isn’t specifically how to remove the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is pretty much straightforward. The harder decision is if any of the trees remaining upright are salvageable.
Certain trees that have been moderately harmed in the windstorm may well pose a possible future threat and may need to be disassembled and disposed of to avoid placing property & people in danger in many months or years to come.
Other trees could be preserved by being pruned back, with their most cracked parts being ‘cut off’ just like how an operating surgeon would take off a gangrenous limb. Some other will need to get staked down with guy wires or held up with various other supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they require to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to land on property, our tree specialists can be relied upon to remove the injured trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the construction teams access to the property to start repair work on the affected properties and power cables.
Different Sorts Of Storm Damage
Each of these types of damage creates an unique outlook for the trees’ long term survival, however forming a prognosis is a job best left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more going to miss a small detail that may well differentiate one verdict from another, such as seeing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that suggests that the roots also snapped.
There are generally 6 sorts of storm damage that a tree can’t normally stand up to:
- Blowovers – these are where the whole tree comes down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the ground, resulting in the crown to come down or to angle strongly whilst the bottom section continues to be standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree tear beneath the ground, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying significantly.
- Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree detach.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays standing. This happens most commonly on trees with extremely unbalanced crowns. The whole crown essentially transforms into a weather vane 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 standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a several secondary effects like massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a much increased danger to drop despite the fact that it survived the original windstorm.
Maintaining Storm Damaged Trees
Our tree experts will not only dispose of upended trees safely and with no more damages to buildings, but will also be able to give practical guidance on just how to save or preserve existing trees that are still standing, although they may have been harmed in the windstorm. Our very qualified crew can assess the scenario on your property and tell you which trees have sustained a lot of damages that they’d die despite the fact that they were properly raised and replanted.
