Safe dismantling and removal of a dead oak tree
Project Overview
We were contracted by a construction company working on a live building site in Norfolk to remove a large dead oak tree that had become a safety concern. The tree had died while standing and was located close to the active work area. To ensure the safety of workers and ongoing operations, prompt removal was essential before construction could continue.
The Challenge
- Dead oak tree standing near a busy work zone
- Risk of falling branches or full collapse during site activity
- Required a fast, controlled solution to avoid delays and hazards
Our Approach
Top Garden Services carried out the oak tree removal using our qualified climbing team and professional rigging techniques. We:
- Inspected and assessed the structural integrity of the dead tree
- Carefully dismantled it in sections to control each part of the removal
- Used ropes and rigging to safely lower larger limbs
- Removed all timber and brash from site
- Left the area clean and clear for construction to resume
All work followed BS3998:2010 standards for professional tree work.


The Result
- Immediate removal of a potential hazard
- Construction site made safe for workers and equipment
- No delays to the build schedule
- Clean and tidy finish ready for further site progress
