Tree Felling: Why Do We Do It?
While trees are vital to our planet, responsible tree felling can play a crucial role in forest health. Whether it's for sustainable timber harvesting, protecting trees and people, or creating new habitats, it can be a positive step.
Our team of Tree Surgeons possess the expertise and awareness to successfully fell a tree cleanly in a safe working environment. As trees are often located in awkward positions near buildings or in areas of vegetation we are careful to avoid causing any disruption to the surrounding area. There are some key reasons as to why our specialised tree surgeons would have no option but to fell a tree.
- The tree may be dead, dangerous or diseased, causing danger to the area and vegetation around it.
- The root may not have room to grow.
- The tree may be restricting views or taking up unwanted space.
- Trees at risk of falling if a storm hits may need felling.
To complete the tree felling process we can remove the stump using our stump grinding equipment so no visible trace of the tree remains.
Alternatives to Tree Felling: Tree Reductions
Felling a tree should always be a last resort, as it impacts both people and wildlife. However, when a tree poses a safety risk due to its location or condition or is damaging property, removal may be necessary. Even in these cases, consider less drastic options like pollarding or pruning to reduce the tree's impact without felling it. Crowning is another popular tree care technique.
Our tree felling contractors are continuously on the lookout to preserve trees, and tree reductions are a key component of this. Tree reductions usually involve the removal of branches to allow more light into a given area or removing overhanging large branches that pose a threat during stormy weather.
If the tree has to be reduced below a certain level, then that is when The Tree Doctors may consider felling. When contacting us, we'll happily discuss the options and the best solution for the tree's location and impact on the surroundings.
Tree reduction offers a variety of benefits for both the health of your tree and the safety of your property.
- By carefully removing a portion of the branches, we can promote better light penetration, encouraging healthier growth throughout the tree.
- This reduction also helps to lessen the wind resistance on the tree, reducing the risk of branch failure during storms and protecting your home and other structures.
- Tree reduction can improve clearance for walkways, driveways, and power lines, creating a safer environment for everyone.
