What is the Tree Removal Process?
Let’s take a look!
Assessment and Planning
- Tree Evaluation: A qualified arborist assesses the tree’s species, size, health, structural integrity, and location. They identify hazards like power lines, buildings, or obstacles.
- Permits: Depending on local council regulations, a permit might be required before removing a tree, especially if it’s a significant size or species. This often involves an application and sometimes an arborist report.
Based on the assessment, the safest and most efficient removal method is determined (e.g., felling the whole tree, dismantling it in sections).
Tree Removal
- Pruning:Lower and smaller branches are typically removed first to provide a clear work area and reduce the weight of the tree.
- Sectional Dismantling (if necessary): For large or hazardous trees, a climber ascends the tree with ropes and safety harnesses. They use chainsaws to cut and lower sections of the tree in a controlled manner to the ground crew. Rigging techniques are used to manage the fall of branches and trunk sections.
- Felling (for suitable trees): If the area allows, the tree might be felled from the base. This involves making a notch cut on the side of the intended fall direction and then a back cut. A hinge of uncut wood is left to help control the fall. Wedges might be used to direct the fall.
- Controlled Lowering: Large limbs and trunk sections are often lowered using ropes and rigging to prevent damage to property and ensure a safe descent.
Cleanup
Debris Removal: Branches, leaves, and smaller pieces of wood are gathered and often fed into a wood chipper to create mulch. Larger logs may be hauled away.
Stump Removal (optional): The stump can be removed by grinding it down with a stump grinder.
Post-Removal
Replacement (if required): Depending on local regulations or personal preference, a new tree may be planted to replace the removed one.
What needs to be considered?
Tree removal can be dangerous and is best left to qualified and insured arborists, especially for larger trees, trees near power lines, or in confined spaces.
Safety should always be the top priority throughout the entire process.
Proper disposal of green waste and consideration of replacement planting are environmentally responsible practices.
