Do You Need A Tree Disassembling Or Felling

The tree surgeons that we work with are are professionals in the precise dismantling of complicated, large and dangerous trees inside restricted places. They’ve felled trees in difficult places and are adept at manoeuvring through tight spaces.

A variety of tree removal techniques may be chosen such as directional felling, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or specialist winch operations. 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 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 is useful to avoid any damage to property or persons, in areas where there is not a lot of space. It takes a lot of skill to cut down trees in sections. Start at the top of the tree and cut into manageable sections. Then, safely and under control, the tree is lowered to ground using lowering ropes and/or slings. In some cases, a crane may be used.

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.

They use ropes, slings and wedges to help the tree fall in the right direction.

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. Because of the many objects and live power lines that may be underneath or around a tree it is dangerous for untrained people to attempt to approach them. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Though they’re generally viewed as being solid and timeless, trees can end up being vulnerable in extreme weather such as strong winds and storms. Intense storms and high winds have been seen to decimate trees and tear even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the soil, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.

How many times after strong winds have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the inconvenience and danger it additionally will lead to expensive restorations.

The most difficult decision following a windstorm is not specifically how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much straightforward. The tougher possibility is whether some of the trees remaining standing can be saved.

Various trees that have been partially affected in the storm may well pose a future threat and may need to be chopped down and took out to avoid putting people and property at risk in several months or even years to come.

Other trees could be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst cracked parts being ‘amputated’ just like how an operating surgeon may take off a gangrenous leg. Others will need to be staked down with guy cables or supported with 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 fall on property, our tree specialists can be trusted to get rid of the affected trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building teams easy access to the property to start repair work on the affected properties and power lines.

Various Kinds Of Storm Damage

Every one of these kinds of problem results in a varied prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, but forming a prognosis is a task best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more liable to disregard a small detail that might differentiate one conclusion from another, such as finding the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that shows that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially 6 types of storm damage that a tree can’t generally stand up to:

  • Blowovers – these are where the complete tree falls down.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the ground, making the crown to come down or lean strongly while the lower section continues to be standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree crack underneath the ground, leading to the tree leaning or swinging noticeably.
  • Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree detach.
  • Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays up. This takes place most commonly on trees with very lopsided crowns. The complete crown effectively transforms into a weathervane in a windstorm, turning to follow the wind flow 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 several additional effects like 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 much increased danger to drop despite the fact that it endured the initial storm.
