Require A Tree Felling Or Disassembling
The tree surgeons with whom we work are experts in the accurate dismantling of unsafe, awkward and, big trees inside restricted locations. They can handle difficult situations, and they are able to navigate tight spaces. This allows them to keep noise and disruption down to a minimum.
A variety of tree removal techniques can be utilised including the use of cranes, specialist winch operations, directional felling or sectional dismantling. It all depends on the available space as to which method they will use.
Tree Felling
This is where the tree is cut from the base and then it falls to the ground in a controlled fashion. This method of removing a tree is best used when there is no risk that it will cause any damage to people or property. It is sometimes impossible to remove large trees in this way, as they require a lot of space 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. 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 are experts in working in tight spaces, and will safely remove trees from your garden using the latest rigging methods.
To prevent the the tree falling in the wrong direction, they always use ropes and slings. They may also use wedges to stop it from going the other way.
Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage
We recommend that you contact a professional tree surgeon to help you with any fallen trees or trees damaged from storms or lightening. 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.

Taking Care Of Trees Damaged In A Storm
Although they are typically seen as being really strong and eternal, trees can come to be at risk in extreme weather conditions such as storms & strong winds. Intense storms and high winds have been known to annihilate trees and tear even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them plunging to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.
How many times following a storm have you heard of storm-damaged trees & dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the inconvenience & danger it additionally may result in expensive restorations.
The toughest decision after a storm is not how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is fairly simple. The harder possibility is whether any of the trees left standing can be saved.
Various trees that have been partly injured in the windstorm can pose a possible future threat and may well need to be chopped down and removed to avoid putting property & people at risk in many months or years ahead.
Other trees can be saved by being trimmed back, with their most damaged sections being ‘amputated’ exactly like how a surgeon may take off a gangrenous leg. Some other might need to get staked down with guy ropes or supported with various other supports up until they can re-develop the root system they need to have to stand on their own.
If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree professionals can be trusted to take away the injured trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the building companies access to the building to start maintenance and repairs on the affected buildings and power lines.
Different Sorts Of Storm Damage
All of these kinds of problem results in a varied diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a diagnosis is a task ideally entrusted to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to fail to notice a small detail that might just separate one verdict from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which reveals that the roots also failed.
There are basically 6 sorts of storm damage which a tree can not generally endure:
- Blowovers – these are where the entire tree is uprooted.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, making the crown to fall or to lean violently whilst the lower section continues to be standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree tear below the soil, leading to the tree leaning or swinging dramatically.
- Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree break off.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays up. This occurs most often on trees with very unbalanced crowns. The entire crown basically becomes a weathervane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can’t.
- Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, for now. Lightening strikes have a many 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 increased danger to drop even though it survived the initial windstorm.
