Tree Removal in Hartley Wintney, Hook and the Surrounding Berkshire and Hampshire Areas

Wherever possible, the tree surgeons on our team will do whatever is possible to protect a healthy tree. Unfortunately, if a disease or a pest infestation has spread, or if a tree has become dangerous, it is often the safest choice to fell or dismantle it. At Oakfall Tree Surgery, we offer a responsive tree removal service using a series of techniques to preserve gardens, grounds and nearby properties.

It is common for us to meet customers who have preconceptions about tree surgery services, often consolidated by images on television or in cinema of lumberjacks felling with axes or mechanical equipment.

The reality of a tree removal service is somewhat different.

Tree surgeons work in a more controlled, strategic manner. While we still use chainsaws and other equipment, a directional fall isn’t the only option available. Sectional dismantling is another form of tree removal that can be safely employed in specific scenarios.

Should you need a tree removed urgently, we also offer the services of an emergency tree surgeon on a genuine 24/7 basis.

For remnants, we can offer you a supporting stump grinding service.

Oakfall Tree Surgery, an established company of tree surgeons based in Basingstoke, is the name to trust for a range of arboricultural services in Berkshire and Hampshire. Tree surgery is a discipline that focuses on care, maintenance, restoration or removal with the intention of promoting good tree health. While it is natural for a prospective customer to think about us felling trees or cutting back branches, there is more to what we can do for you as a business.

You can use us for services in the following areas:

Alton | Basingstoke | Farnham | Fleet | Hartley Wintney | Hook

Tree surgery can be considered dangerous due to personnel working at height and using powerful equipment, so all tree surgeons on our team will carry the relevant City & Guilds and NPTC qualifications.

From tree reduction services to include crown thinning and lifting, to tree removals using directional felling or sectional dismantling techniques, we combine a sensitive approach to tree care with the industry’s safest working practices. This allows the team at Oakfall Tree Surgery to fulfil all domestic and commercial requirements.

We also offer emergency tree surgery services on a 24-hour basis.

Directional Felling

This tree surgery technique will be more familiar to our customers, and it involves us using chainsaws and hand tools to make cuts into the trunk to create a hinge. This hinge controls the descent of a tree in a controlled direction, eliminating the risk of it falling onto property while also protecting other trees in its vicinity.

This form of tree removal works well if the specimen is located in an area close to buildings, power lines and similar hazards.

Sectional Dismantling

Tree surgeons also have the option to use sectional dismantling for a tree removal. This is a piece-by-piece process ideally suited to removing trees in confined spaces. Oakfall Tree Surgery’s team will take down the affected tree in stages, from the top down, using a rope-and-pulley system to lower the removed limbs to the ground.

This method is also used when a directional fell isn’t possible due to the potential of damage to nearby properties or infrastructure.

Most tree removal projects place a focus on safety and taking down a tree to preserve the welfare of people and the integrity of property but there are also situations that arise where we use the techniques described above to pave the way for future development plans. It is never our intention to harm the environment so, if a tree needs to be removed, we can always recommend you a suitable planting scheme.

Wherever possible, Oakfall Tree Surgery completes removals in areas such as Alton, Basingstoke, Farnham, Fleet, Hartley Wintney and Hook in the most ethical manner and with local ecosystems in mind.
