Do You Require A Tree Felling Or Disassembling
Our tree surgeons are specialists in the precise taking down of unsafe, awkward and, big trees inside confined places. They are experienced in removing trees from difficult locations and can manoeuvre through tight spaces.
A variety of tree removal solutions may be used including 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’s base is cut and then the tree falls in a controlled way. This technique is only used when the risk that the tree could cause injury to anyone or damage property is very low. But, large trees may not be able to be felled in this way due to the amount of space required to fell a tree.
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. Starting at the top of the tree, sections are cut and then lowered to safety and under control using lowering ropes/slings and sometimes a crane.
The tree surgeons that we work with have the ability to navigate through tight spaces and can safely remove trees from your garden using the most recent rigging techniques.
To stop it from falling in the opposite direction, they use ropes and/or slings.

Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage
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. 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 have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.
Handling Trees Damaged In A Storm
Despite the fact that they are generally considered as being really solid and timeless, trees can easily end up being vulnerable in adverse weather conditions such as storms and strong winds. Intense storms and very high winds have been known to decimate trees and tear even the healthiest & sturdiest trees from the soil, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.
How many times after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the inconvenience & danger it also can result in expensive repair work.
The hardest option after a storm is not how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that is pretty much straightforward. The more difficult decision is whether any of the trees still upright can be saved.
Certain trees that have been partly injured in the windstorm might pose a potential threat and might have to be disassembled and disposed of to avoid putting people & property in danger in months or years in the future.
Other trees might be conserved by being pruned back, with their most cracked parts being ‘severed’ similar to how a surgeon may remove a gangrenous leg. Others will require to be staked with guy wires or supported with additional supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree contractors can be relied upon to get rid of the affected trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the building crews easy access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged properties and power cables.
Various Sorts Of Storm Damage
All of these types of damage leads to a different diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a prognosis is a task best entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more likely to overlook a small detail that might separate one decision from another, like noticing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which reveals that the roots also snapped.
There are basically 6 sorts of storm damage which a tree can’t normally stand up to:
- Blowovers – these are where the entire tree is uprooted.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, resulting in the crown to fall or to bend strongly whilst the bottom section stays standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree break beneath the earth, leading to the tree leaning or swaying dramatically.
- Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree detach.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This happens most typically on trees with highly unbalanced crowns. The entire 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 Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a lot of secondary effects such as 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 considerably higher risk to fall even if it got through the original windstorm.
