Tree Surveying

Identifying hazard trees and collating tree populations

Tree owners have a duty of care to ensure the safety of their property!

Tree owners have a duty of care to ensure the safety of their property!

Trees in poor physiological and structural condition can seriously increase the risk of harm or damage!

Visual Tree Risk Assessment

Most of our surveys are carried out using the  VTA' or 'Visual Tree Risk Assessement' method by a qualified and experienced surveyor.

The data gathered helps to build up a picture of any structural and physiological defects (such as the presence of decay fungi) that may pose potential problems to the safety of people and property.

Each tree is given recommendations as to appropriate treatment.

We also have surveyors who can also undertake a QTRA or 'Quantative Tree Risk Assessment Survey' using the patented method if this is something that you require.

This involves a similar method as VTA but uses a special calculator to build up an odds based risk of failure. Further information available on request. 

A tree survey gives an overall assessement of trees, good or bad

A detailed tree survey can highlight problems but it can also save money, after all, not all trees require remedial work!

Utility Arb Surveys

Utility Arb Surveys

Our utility arb surveyors collect data on trees across all infrastructure networks

Our experienced and fully qualified NPTC UA surveyors are tasked with gathering the vital tree data for cutting teams to prune or remove trees and vegetation.

A foot patrol survey is completed to ascertain the number of trees affecting the network along with a risk assessment applied to each tree to ensure the most appropriate methods are used to safely carry out the work.

They’re also experts in liaising with landowners and third parties ensuring relevant permissions are obtained to carry out cutting works and to agree site access
