Tree Felling in Orkney

Tree felling may be executed for a variety of reasons. Trees that are diseased or damaged and incapable of recovering may need to be felled to ensure that they do not fall by themselves and cause injury or destruction of property. Similarly, if trees are harmed by bad weather or other factors and have partially fallen they will probably need felling to ensure that they do not cause any more destruction either to properties or neighbouring trees. Domestic tree felling can also be carried out if a tree has grown too big or is especially close to a building and therefore more likely to cause structural issues. In addition, trees in gardens can be felled if they are obscuring the light to a property or otherwise impacting your enjoyment of your garden. Although it can be tempting to handle tree felling as a DIY job, it is dangerous to undertake without the appropriate training and planning. Experienced tree surgeons can fell trees in a safe manner and ensure that they do not cause any harm to property as they are felled. If the area around a tree is small, the tree can be felled in portions to lower the risk of it falling and causing destruction in the surrounding area. Tree felling companies will also remove the fallen tree in a sustainable way, and may even cut up the tree into logs for use in a wood burner or stove.
