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 is only done in areas that are safe from any potential damage to property or others. For large trees, however, this is often impossible due to the need for a lot of space for them to fall.

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.

Tree Removal Due To Storm Damage
If you have and fallen trees or any damaged trees from a storm or lightning, you should call a qualified tree surgeon. 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. The tree surgeons are skilled in clearing out any tree damage.
Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees
Although they’re generally taken as being sturdy and everlasting, trees can certainly become vulnerable in adverse weather such as storms & strong winds. Violent storms and very high winds have been known to decimate trees and rip even the sturdiest & healthiest trees out of the soil, sending them crashing to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.
How many times soon after a storm have you heard about storm-damaged trees and dislodged branches blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the danger & inconvenience it additionally will result in costly restorations.
The hardest decision after a storm isn’t specifically how to deal with the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s fairly straightforward. The more challenging possibility is whether any of the trees left standing can be saved.
Some trees that have been partly harmed in the storm may well present a potential risk and may well need to be cut down and removed to prevent putting property & people at risk in several months or even years in the future.
Other trees might be saved by being pruned back, with their most cracked parts being ‘amputated’ similar to how a surgeon would remove a gangrenous leg. Others might require to get staked with guy wires or held up with other supports up 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 buildings, our tree professionals can be trusted to remove the damaged trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the building and construction teams access to the property to begin repairs on the damaged buildings and power lines.
Different Kinds Of Storm Damage
Each of these types of problem results in a distinct diagnosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a diagnosis is a task best left to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified nonprofessional is far more liable to overlook a small detail that might just differentiate one decision from another, like finding the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean which shows that the roots also failed.
There are basically six types of storm damage which a tree can not generally stand up to:
- Blowovers – this is where the full tree comes down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the ground, causing the trees crown to fall or to angle violently even though the lower section stays standing normally.
- Root Failures – is where the roots of the tree crack beneath the ground, resulting in the tree leaning or swaying noticeably.
- Branch Failures – is where several limbs of the tree fall off.
- Crown Twists – is where the trunk of the tree turns enough to splinter, but stays standing. This happens most typically on trees with very unbalanced crowns. The full crown effectively becomes a weather vane in a storm, turning 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 standing, for now. Lightening hits have a number of secondary effects like opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a much increased danger to drop even though it made it through the original storm.
