Trees are usually safe -
which is why we enjoy them in our daily lives. Let us provide you with the best available evidence to keep it that way. We take a proportionate approach to tree risk management, which means balancing the frequency and type of tree inspections we can undertake with not just the setting, but also the various benefits and services trees provide. We do not undertake tree works, ensuring an impartiality break when it comes to stumping up for tree works.Â
We can prepare Tree Risk Management Strategies at any scale to provide you with a basis for peace of mind. Tesco Stores UK have one, we wrote it!
Perhaps you have a strategy in place, in which case we can help you with formal inspections – whether from ground level of from a rope and harness, a one-off or part of a planned series.
Not certain if it’s safe? Let us know, we take evidence seriously, especially if it’s the difference between keeping large, interesting, and important trees in the scene. We can inform decision making by making the best use of decay testing technology and the literature to investigate further …. and ensure the chainsaw is the last resort.
