Tree Risk Assessment Services

Professional tree risk assessment identifies potential hazards before they cause injury or property damage. Our certified arborists examine structural defects, disease symptoms, and environmental factors that increase failure probability. We assign risk ratings based on likelihood of failure, size of failing parts, and occupancy of target zones. Detailed written reports document findings with photographs and recommendations ranked by priority and cost. These assessments provide legal protection by demonstrating due diligence in identifying and addressing tree hazards. Property managers use our assessments to prioritize maintenance budgets and reduce liability exposure. Insurance companies often require risk assessments for high-value properties or after significant storm events.

Construction and Development Consulting

Protecting trees during construction requires proactive planning and strict enforcement of protection measures. We work with developers, contractors, and homeowners to identify trees worth preserving and establish critical root zones that must remain undisturbed. Our consultants mark protection fencing, monitor construction activity, and recommend remedial treatments if damage occurs. For developments requiring tree removal, we advise on permit applications, mitigation plantings, and community communication. Post-construction assessments document tree condition and prescribe recovery treatments for stressed specimens. Proper tree management during construction protects valuable assets, satisfies regulatory requirements, and maintains community goodwill. For projects requiring tree removal or land clearing, we coordinate seamlessly with development timelines.
