Emergency tree removal
The most obvious situation when this is needed is when there has been a storm and the wind has exploited a weakness in the tree. The tree has failed and requires tree removal immediately. These situations require fast action sometimes when the tree is across a main road or rail line, or it can be power or phone lines. Just this year we had a emergency tree removal. The tree was co-dominant the weak union was at the base of the tree and part of the tree had fallen onto the neighbours roof. The tree removal was interesting but challenging were we needed to remove the tree but avoid any further damage to the roof.
24 Hour Service
Its important to get dangerous trees assessed as quickly as possible and not to try to remove any large branches yourself.
If a tree has fallen and poses a threat, skilled arborists are trained to determine the best course of action. In an emergency, we can attend onsite the same day to ensure the immediate risk is removed in a safe and professional manner.
Not all tree removal needs to be emergency tree removal as in a crisis. Some tree removal can be foreseen and addressed in time. Usually this is achieved through getting a tree survey and a tree report. This can highlight what is dangerous, what needs maintenance such as dead wooding and what is good for now. Recently we worked on a dead beech tree. It over hanged a residential road and a main road. The branches were brittle and the risk was high. In this case it was an emergency tree removal, we emailed a urgent 5 day notice the council to their credit replied the same day and the job got done straightaway.
