When to Book A Tree Inspection:

-
When trees overhang boundaries, public roads, or utility corridors
What is a Tree Inspection?
A tree inspection is a systematic health and safety check of individual trees or groups of trees. We examine structure, vitality, and site conditions to identify defects and recommend practical actions.
Crown dieback, large deadwood, and storm damage.
Cracks, cavities, fungal fruiting bodies, weak unions.
Root plate movement, soil heave, and past construction impact
What We Look For:
Targets beneath the tree such as roads, play areas, parking, greenhouses
How We Assess Risk:
Our arborists use internationally recognised tree risk methodologies to combine likelihood of failure with the consequence of failure. This produces proportionate recommendations such as monitoring, selective pruning, supportive bracing, or removal where unavoidable.
