Pre- & Post-development Assessment
Trees play a vital role in the landscape of both old and new properties. Development usually means tree removal, but this does not have to be the case. An understanding of sound engineering practices and tree root structure can allow for trees to be retained in a way that complements the new development. Assessment of the trees on your property in the planning stages of development goes a long way to ensuring retention of tree assets, and to enhancing your development design in a way that incorporates and makes the most of your trees. Consultation can provide information on construction techniques that allow retention of trees in proximity to new development. Consultation also provides information on protecting your trees throughout the construction process. Once your development project is complete, a qualified tree assessment ensures optimization of your tree benefits and landscape enhancements, and a tree maintenance program provides the means to ensure these benefits and enhancements are retained by your property over time.
Tree Risk Assessment
When does a tree put people and property at risk? Tree risk assessment by a qualified tree risk assessor is a rational way to discern real from imagined concerns about tree risk. It is possible to place a distinct risk rating on your tree, which will allow you to review and understand the factors influencing the safety of your tree in its specific circumstances. Armed with this knowledge, tree risk can be mitigated, alleviating anxiety about potential adverse tree impacts.
