Do You Require A Tree Felling Or Disassembling
Our tree surgeons are pros in the precise taking down of complicated, large and hazardous trees inside confined locations. They are experienced in removing trees from difficult locations and can manoeuvre through tight spaces.
A variety of tree removal methods can be utilised such as specialist winch operations, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or directional felling. The technique they choose will depend on how much space is 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. This technique is not always possible for large trees, as it takes a lot of space for them to fall.
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. It takes skill to remove 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 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 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 have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.
Handling Storm Damaged Trees
Though they’re often taken as being really durable and permanent, trees can easily end up being vulnerable in extreme weather like storms & strong winds. Powerful storms and strong winds have been seen to wipe out trees and uplift even the sturdiest & healthiest trees from the ground, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto neighbours’ gardens, power lines, vehicles, and buildings.
How many times shortly after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it also may lead to expensive repair work.
The toughest decision following a windstorm isn’t specifically how to remove the trees that are definitely down, that is fairly simple. The more difficult choice is whether or not any of the trees left standing are salvageable.
Certain trees that have been in part injured in the storm might pose a potential risk and may well need to be chopped down and took away to avoid putting people and property at risk in months or years in the future.
Some other trees may be conserved by being pruned back, with their most affected parts being ‘severed’ exactly like how an operating surgeon would remove a gangrenous leg. Others may require to be staked with guy cables or supported with additional supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they have to have to stand on their own.
If a storm has caused trees to land on property, our tree experts can be trusted to clear away the affected trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the construction companies easy access to the property to begin restorations on the affected properties and power cables.
Different Kinds Of Storm Damage
Each one of these kinds of problem leads to an unique prognosis for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job ideally left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more going to overlook a small detail that may differentiate one conclusion from another, such as noticing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which signifies that the roots also failed.
There are generally 6 types of storm damage which a tree can’t generally endure:
- Blowovers – this is where the entire tree is uprooted.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, making the crown to fall or sag violently even though the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the root systems of the tree break underneath the earth, leading to the tree bending or swaying considerably.
- Limb Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree break off.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays standing. This takes place most typically on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The entire crown effectively becomes a weathervane in a windstorm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a way that the trunk is unable to.
- Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a many additional 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 much higher risk to drop despite the fact that it got through the initial storm.
