Do You Require A Tree Disassembling Or Felling
The tree surgeons who work with us are specialists in the correct dismantling of big, complicated and dangerous trees within restricted places. They are skilled at navigating tight spaces and minimising noise and disruption.
A range of tree removal methods may be chosen 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 is cut from the base and then it falls to the ground in a controlled fashion. This method of removing a tree is best used when there is no risk that it will cause any damage to people or property. For large trees, however, this is often impossible due to the need for a lot of space for them to fall.
Tree Dismantling
It is used when space is restricted. All debris must be directed down so as to not cause any property damage or injury to others. This is a skilled job that involves removing 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 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
We recommend that you contact a professional tree surgeon to help you with any fallen trees or trees damaged from storms or lightening. It is very dangerous for non-trained people to try and deal with a fallen tree, as there are many objects that could be trapped underneath or around the tree, as well as any live power lines. Tree surgeons are highly skilled and have the experience to properly remove any tree damage.
Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees
Despite the fact that they’re typically considered as being really strong and everlasting, trees can easily end up being at risk in adverse weather conditions such as storms and strong winds. Intense storms and strong winds have been seen to decimate trees and uplift even the healthiest and sturdiest trees from the ground, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.
How many times following strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it also can lead to costly repair work.
The toughest option after a storm is not specifically how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s more or less simple. The more challenging possibility is whether some of the trees left standing can be saved.
Some trees that have been in part damaged in the windstorm can present a future hazard and may have to be disassembled and removed to prevent placing people and property in danger in many months or years to come.
Other trees may be conserved by being trimmed back, with their worst injured sections being ‘amputated’ much like how an operating surgeon would amputate a gangrenous limb. Others may need to get staked with guy cables or held up with other supports up until they can re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.
If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree professionals can be trusted to get rid of the damaged trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the construction crews easy access to the building to start restorations on the affected structures and power cables.
Different Sorts Of Storm Damage
All of these sorts of damage leads to an unique outlook for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a prognosis is a task ideally left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more going to overlook a small detail that can separate one verdict from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which indicates that the roots also failed.
There are generally 6 types of storm damage which 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 bend violently whilst the lower section remains standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree crack beneath the ground, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying noticeably.
- Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays standing. This occurs most typically on trees with extremely lopsided crowns. The complete crown effectively ends up being a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can not.
- Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a many 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 higher danger to drop even if it made it through the original windstorm.
