Do You Require A Tree Felling Or Disassembling
Our tree surgeons are specialists in the accurate taking down of big, cumbersome and unsafe trees within restricted places. They’ve felled trees in difficult places and are adept at manoeuvring through tight spaces.
A range of tree removal methods maybe used such as the use of cranes, specialist winch operations, directional felling or sectional dismantling. 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. 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. 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 individuals should not attempt to 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 Trees Damaged In A Storm
Though they are usually taken as being strong and permanent, trees can certainly become defenceless in adverse weather like storms and strong winds. Fierce storms and high winds have been seen to annihilate trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees from the ground, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.
How many times soon after strong winds have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the inconvenience & danger it additionally will cause costly restorations.
The toughest decision following a storm isn’t specifically how to dispose of the trees that are definitely down, that is more or less straightforward. The more difficult choice is if some of the trees remaining upright can be saved.
Some trees that have been partially injured in the windstorm may well present a potential risk and might have to be chopped down and took away to avoid putting people & property in danger in several months or even years in the future.
Other trees may be conserved by being trimmed back, with their most cracked parts being ‘amputated’ just like how an operating surgeon would take off a gangrenous leg. Some other will require to be staked with guy wires or supported with various other supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to have to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree contractors can be trusted to take away the affected trees quickly, efficiently and safely to allow the construction crews access to the property to start repairs on the damaged structures and power lines.
Various Types Of Storm Damage
Every one of these types of damage results in a different diagnosis for the trees’ potential survival, but making a diagnosis is a task best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more likely to overlook a small detail that may differentiate one verdict from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which indicates that the roots also failed.
There are essentially 6 types of storm damage which 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 splits above the soil, leading to the crown to come down or angle strongly whilst the bottom section stays standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree split beneath the soil, leading to the tree leaning or swaying significantly.
- Branch Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree detach.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to splinter, but stays up. This takes place most often on trees with very lopsided crowns. The whole crown effectively becomes a weathervane in a storm, turning to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk is unable to.
- Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a several 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 typically at a very much greater danger to drop even though it got through the initial windstorm.
