Tree removal in Richmond upon Thames
Tree felling is the right course of action if a tree is causing obstruction or creates a hazard to people or nearby property. This is particularly the case if the tree is diseased, dead, or decaying. Our specialists will expertly remove a tree, minimizing any damage to the surrounding ground or areas. After tree removal, the next step is often to remove the stump and thus ensure a completely clean and level ground is left behind. There are fundamentally two types of tree felling: section felling, and straight felling. Additionally, we also provide emergency tree removal services for trees that have fallen or been damaged, for example as a result of storms and high winds.
Straight felling Also known as directional felling, this technique refers to removing the tree by a single cut point. This is the fastest course of action, and is available for smaller trees, or where there is sufficient landing area for the tree to fall safely. Straight felling requires high expertise to prevent accidents and ensure a quick and safe tree removal. We use a combination of ropes, felling wedges, and directional cuts, to ensure the tree falls in the desired direction. If necessary, crash mats are placed on the ground to prevent any damage from the falling tree. Once the tree is cut down, our tree removal specialists dismantle it into pieces that can be safely loaded onto a truck and removed. Section felling In this type of tree felling, the tree is dismantled piece by piece. It is the most suitable course of action for large trees, or trees in crowded spaces where straight felling could cause damage to nearby property. This is often the case in residential gardens of Richmond that they don’t offer sufficient landing area for the falling tree. In section felling, our specialists climb the tree using ropes and safety harnesses, and start removing branches and sections of the trunk. These are then carefully lowered to the ground using a set of pulleys and lowering ropes. Sometimes the tree is too damaged or too decayed to be climbed safely, and the usage of a crane or an elevated platform is required to access the upper sections of a tree safely. Section felling work should only be undertaken by qualified experts, as working high above ground, in an unstable position, employing powerful tools, such as a chainsaw, leaves little margin for error and can lead to risk of serious injury. Emergency tree removal in Richmond Sometimes a tree falls as a result of stormy weather and high winds, or gets partially damaged or broken. This is often the case if a tree has not been looked after by a qualified tree surgeon for too long, and instability or decay go unnoticed for too long. It is therefore essential not to neglect the trees and have a qualified surgeon look after them regularly. This can prevent accidents from occurring and save thousands of pounds of damage to your car, house, or other property. Even a small or decayed tree falls with a formidable force and can cause damage when not controlled. If you suffer from an accident caused by a fallen tree, or even if you notice any instability or damage to the tree trunk or parts of the tree, we offer emergency callout service. In this case, our specialists will assess the damage or potential damage to property and identify the tree or portions of the tree to be removed. We then organize a fast and safe removal of the tree, while preventing any additional damage to property. The work involves carefully dismantling the fallen tree into sections that can be loaded onto a truck. How much does it cost to remove a tree in London?
