Prevent Further Damage
What to Do If a Tree Is Damaged or Dangerous
Tree hazards often occur suddenly after high winds, lightning strikes, or heavy snow. Warning signs include:
- Cracks in the trunk or branches
- Trees leaning or uprooted
- Hanging or broken limbs
- Branches interfering with buildings, power lines, or roads
If you spot any of the above, don’t wait. A quick response reduces the risk of injury, property damage, and insurance complications.

Our Emergency Tree Work Process
1. Immediate Assessment
We assess the risk remotely or on-site, determining the safest, fastest approach.
2. Specialist Equipment
Using cranes, rigging, MEWPs (mobile elevated platforms), and more, we manage complex and large-scale removals.
3. Safe Tree Removal or Stabilisation
Depending on the damage, we either remove or secure the tree to prevent further risk.
4. Responsible Waste Handling
All green waste is taken to licensed recycling or biomass facilities, never landfill. We can also leave mulch or logs on-site for reuse.

Do you offer emergency tree services for businesses and councils?
