Do You Need A Tree Felling Or Disassembling
Our tree surgeons are specialists in the correct taking down of large, unsafe and difficult trees inside restricted areas. They are skilled at navigating tight spaces and minimising noise and disruption.
A variety of tree removal procedures maybe employed including sectional dismantling, directional felling, specialist winch operations or the use of cranes. The choice of the method will depend on the 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
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. 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 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.

Storm Damage Tree Removal
If you have and fallen trees or any damaged trees from a storm or lightning, you should call a qualified tree surgeon. 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. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.
Handling Storm Damaged Trees
Despite the fact that they are often taken as being really sturdy and eternal, trees can easily become vulnerable in extreme weather conditions such as strong winds and storms. Intense storms and extreme winds have been known to annihilate trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.
How many times soon after strong winds have you heard of storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the danger and inconvenience it also will cause expensive renovations.
The most difficult decision after a storm isn’t specifically how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty simple. The more difficult choice is whether or not any of the trees remaining standing are salvageable.
Certain trees that have been in part damaged in the storm can present a potential threat and may need to be cut down and took away to prevent placing people & property at risk in many months or years to come.
Some other trees may be conserved by being pruned back, with their most affected sections being ‘amputated’ exactly like how an operating surgeon may remove a gangrenous leg. Some other might need to be staked with guy wires or supported with other supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree contractors can be trusted to take away the damaged trees safely, efficiently and quickly to allow the building teams access to the property to start restorations on the damaged properties and power lines.
Various Kinds Of Storm Damage
Every one of these sorts of damage causes a distinct outlook for the trees’ long term survival, however making a diagnosis is a job best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more going to fail to notice a small detail that may differentiate one conclusion from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.
There are essentially six forms of storm damage that a tree can’t generally stand up to:
- Blowovers – this is where the whole tree comes down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree cracks above the soil, making the trees crown to come down or lean strongly even though the lower section remains standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree snap beneath the soil, resulting in the tree pitching or swaying noticeably.
- Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree fall off.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to splinter, but stays standing. This takes place most commonly on trees with very disproportionate crowns. The whole crown essentially turns into a weather vane in a storm, turning to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk can’t.
- Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a several secondary effects such as opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is typically at a considerably increased danger to fall even though it survived the original storm.
