Do You Need A Tree Disassembling Or Felling
The tree surgeons that we work with are are pros in the precise taking down of unsafe, large and difficult trees within restricted locations. They’ve felled trees in difficult places and are adept at manoeuvring through tight spaces.
A range of tree removal techniques may be chosen such as directional felling, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or specialist winch operations. The choice of the method will depend on the space available.
Tree Felling
This is where the tree’s base is cut and then the tree falls in a controlled way. 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 can be used when there isn’t enough space to simply fell the tree. The entire process must be carefully guided to avoid any injury to people or damage to property. 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 have the ability to navigate through tight spaces and can safely remove trees from your garden using the most recent rigging techniques.
To help prevent the fall going wrong, they will always use ropes and slings.

Storm Damage Tree Removal
If you are concerned about a tree that has fallen or has been damaged from lightning or a storm, we recommend calling a qualified 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.
Managing Trees Damaged In A Storm
Despite the fact they’re usually seen as being sturdy and permanent, trees can come to be vulnerable in extreme weather conditions such as storms & strong winds. Violent storms and extreme winds have been seen to decimate trees and rip even the healthiest and sturdiest trees out of the ground, sending them toppling to the earth, or onto power lines, buildings, neighbours’ gardens and vehicles.
How many times following strong winds have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the inconvenience and danger it additionally may lead to costly repairs.
The toughest option following a storm isn’t how to remove the trees that have definitely fallen down, that is fairly easy. The more difficult decision is whether any of the trees still upright are salvageable.
Some trees that have been partially injured in the storm can present a future risk and might have to be chopped down and took away to avoid putting people & property at risk in several months or years to come.
Other trees may be conserved by being pruned back, with their worst damaged parts being ‘severed’ much like how a surgeon will remove a gangrenous leg. Others might require to get staked down with guy ropes or supported with various other supports until they are able to re-develop the root system they require to stand on their own.
If a storm has caused trees to fall on property, our tree specialists can be relied upon to take away the damaged trees safely, quickly and efficiently to allow the construction teams access to the building to begin repairs on the affected buildings and power cables.
Different Types Of Storm Damage
Each of these sorts of problem creates a distinct outlook for the trees’ potential survival, but making a diagnosis is a task best left to a fully qualified arborist. An unqualified amateur is much more liable to miss a small detail that might differentiate one conclusion from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but overlooking the slight lean that indicates that the roots also failed.
There are generally six forms of storm damage that a tree can not generally sustain:
- Blowovers – this is where the full tree falls down.
- Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the soil, leading to the trees crown to come down or to sag violently while the bottom section stays standing normally.
- Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree split beneath the soil, leading to the tree leaning or swaying significantly.
- Branch Failures – is where one or more branches of the tree detach.
- Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree turns sufficient to split, but stays standing. This occurs most typically on trees with highly disproportionate crowns. The full crown ultimately transforms into a weather vane 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 standing, for now. Lightening strikes have a many secondary effects such as opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a lightening-hit tree is always at a substantially higher risk to drop even though it survived the original storm.
