Do You Need A Tree Disassembling Or Felling
The tree surgeons with whom we work are professionals in the correct dismantling of hazardous, complicated and, big trees within restricted areas. They are skilled at navigating tight spaces and minimising noise and disruption.
A variety of tree removal solutions maybe employed such as sectional dismantling, directional felling, specialist winch operations or the use of cranes. The technique used will largely depend on the amount of space available.
Tree Felling
This is when the tree is cut at its base and then it falls to the ground without damaging anything. This method of removing a tree is best used when there is no risk that it will cause any damage to people or property. 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
This technique is often used in places where there is not a lot of space. Everything must be guided down to prevent any damage to property or people being injured. 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 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.
To stop it from falling in the opposite direction, they use ropes and/or slings.

Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage
If you have a fallen tree, or suspect that your tree has been damaged by lightning or a storm, it is a good idea to call a certified 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. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.
Dealing With Trees Damaged In A Storm
Though they’re often viewed as being really strong and everlasting, trees can easily become defenceless in extreme weather conditions like strong winds & storms. Powerful storms and very high winds have been known to wipe out trees and tear even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them plunging to the ground, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.
How many times shortly after strong winds have you heard about storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it additionally can lead to costly repairs.
The toughest decision following a storm is not specifically how to get rid of the trees that are definitely down, that is fairly straightforward. The harder decision is if any of the trees remaining upright can be saved.
Various trees that have been moderately injured in the windstorm may pose a future hazard and might need to be disassembled and removed to avoid placing people and property at risk in many months or years in the future.
Some other trees may be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst injured sections being ‘cut off’ just like how a surgeon will amputate a gangrenous leg. Some other might need to be staked with guy cables or supported with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they need to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to land on property, our tree contractors can be relied upon to take away the injured trees efficiently, safely and quickly to allow the building and construction crews access to the building to begin repairs on the damaged properties and power cables.
Different Kinds Of Storm Damage
Every one of these sorts of damage results in a varied prognosis for the trees’ long term survival, but forming a diagnosis is a job best entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is much more liable to fail to notice a small detail that might separate one conclusion from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which reveals that the roots also snapped.
There are essentially six forms of storm damage which a tree can not generally sustain:
- Blowovers – these are where the full tree falls down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the ground, leading to the trees crown to come down or angle strongly whilst the lower part remains standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree crack below the ground, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying dramatically.
- Limb Failures – is where several limbs of the tree break off.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This happens most frequently on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The full crown essentially turns into 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 standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a lot of additional effects like 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 considerably increased danger to fall even though it got through the initial windstorm.
