Do You Need A Tree Felling Or Disassembling

The tree surgeons that we work with are are specialists in the accurate taking down of large, complicated and hazardous trees within 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 may be employed including the use of cranes, specialist winch operations, directional felling or sectional dismantling. The choice of the method will depend on the space available.

Tree Felling

This is where the tree can be cut at the base and it will then fall to the ground without any damage. This method is only used in areas where the tree is not likely to cause damage to property or people. For large trees, however, this is often impossible due to the need for a lot of space for them to fall.

Tree Dismantling

It is used when space is restricted. All debris must be directed down so as to not cause any property damage or injury to others. This is a skilled job that involves removing trees in sections. Starting at the top, the tree must be cut into manageable sections. Next, the tree must be safely and securely lowered to earth using lowering ropes, slings, or in certain cases a crane.

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. Because of the many objects and live power lines that may be underneath or around a tree it is dangerous for untrained people to attempt to approach them. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.

Dealing With Storm Damaged Trees

Even though they’re typically considered as being really sturdy and eternal, trees can certainly end up being defenceless in extreme weather conditions such as strong winds and storms. Fierce storms and extreme winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the healthiest & sturdiest trees from the soil, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.

How many times shortly after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches damaging property or blocking the road. In addition to the inconvenience and danger it also will cause costly restorations.

The toughest decision after a storm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s pretty simple. The harder decision is whether or not any of the trees still upright can be saved.

Some trees that have been partially harmed in the storm may well pose a potential future risk and may well have to be disassembled and took out to avoid putting people and property in danger in months or years to come.

Other trees can be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst cracked parts being ‘amputated’ much like how an operating surgeon will amputate a gangrenous leg. Others will require to be staked with guy wires or supported with additional supports up until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on property, our tree contractors can be trusted to take away the broken trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building and construction crews easy access to the property to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged structures and power cables.

Various Types Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of problem results in a distinct outlook for the trees’ potential survival, however forming a prognosis is a job ideally entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to overlook a small detail that may well differentiate one verdict from another, like observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean which signifies that the roots also snapped.

There are basically six kinds of storm damage which a tree can’t usually stand up to:

  • Blowovers – this is where the full tree is uprooted.
  • Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, causing the crown to come down or sag strongly even though the lower part remains standing normally.
  • Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree split beneath the soil, leading to the tree bending or swaying considerably.
  • Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall 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 extremely disproportionate crowns. The full crown basically transforms into a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
  • Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, at the moment. Lightening hits have a lot of 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 always at a very much greater risk to fall despite the fact that it endured the initial storm.
