 Our services include

-Tree condition surveys-

Using the Visual Tree Assessment (VTA) methodology devised by Claus Mattheck for assessing the physiological and structural health of your tree stock. These tend to be non-invasive using a sounding mallet to perform a "tap test", a cavity probe and binoculars to gain further insights. A useful option to provide baseline data, assess tree condition, to aid meeting "duty care" and to formulate tree management plans. Typically a walkover survey with the option of climbing inspections where more detail is required.

- Tree Risk assessments -

Walkover surveys quantifying risk using the Quantified Tree Risk Assessment (QTRA). A quantified approach can be a sensible approach to meeting "duty of care".
