Timber Extraction

We recently felled a couple of 100 + year old Corsican Pine trees including this monster from a property in Berkhamsted. The tree was very close to the house and tangled up with power lines, which meant that they had to be removed but also it made for a very difficult job.

So with the power shut down for an 8 hour window we used a 30 tonne crane to speed things up, save our backs and give us the ability to extract the trunks for milling into useful timber.
