Tree Felling Methods In West London
Generally, tree felling has two main approaches: sectional and straight felling.
Let’s explore these two primary techniques and identify when each is most appropriate for specific situations.
Sectional Tree Felling In West London
Sectional tree removal involves taking down the tree in smaller, more manageable parts.
This method is preferred when space is limited or there’s a risk of property damage or public harm.
Typically, a climber ascends the tree and removes it piece by piece from top to bottom.
Depending on the circumstances, the climber may safely bring down branches using free fall or controlled lowering techniques with ropes and rigging equipment.
If a tree is unstable or too risky to climb, felling may require a MEWP (Cherry picker) or crane assistance.
Sectional felling can also be done using mechanical means, such as grapple saws or tree shears attached to excavators or HIABS on lorries and telehandlers.
At West London Tree Surgeons, we’re experienced in all types of sectional felling and specialise in MEWP, grapple saw, and crane operations.
Contact us today if you need help with a complex tree-felling project.
Straight Tree Felling In West London
Straight tree felling involves cutting down the entire tree in one go rather than sections.
This method requires sufficient space for the tree to fall without endangering people or property.
Due to these space requirements, straight tree felling is more suitable for large open areas, site clearance, and forestry work.
A skilled tree feller can direct the fell using precise cutting techniques and tools, including wedges, ropes, and winches.
Our expert team of arborists undergoes extensive training and can confidently fell any tree straight if space permits.
We thoroughly assess each project to determine the safest and most efficient tree removal solution.
We provide professional tree removal services in West London and all nearby boroughs, towns, and villages, including Ealing, Acton, Hillingdon, Fulham, Kensington, and Westminster.
