Comprehensive health and safety tree audits
Regular assessments are crucial to identifying potential risks within your tree stock. Our Visual Tree Assessments (VTA) are designed to detect structural weaknesses, decay, and disease before they become hazards.
Using expert analysis, we evaluate each tree’s condition and provide clear recommendations based on recorded observations. While our audits focus primarily on safety concerns, additional guidance on aesthetic and amenity pruning can be provided upon request. These inspections are ideal for landowners, property managers, and organisations responsible for multiple trees.
​
Our audit services include:
-
Visual Tree Assessments (VTA) – Identify signs of decay, disease, or structural weakness.
-
Detailed Reports – Clear, expert recommendations based on site findings.
-
Optional Advice – Guidance on pruning for aesthetics or amenity value if needed.
Ideal for landowners, property managers, and anyone responsible for multiple trees.

Tree work schedules for effective maintenance
Following thorough inspections, we develop structured tree work schedules that prioritise health, safety, and longevity. Our reports outline the most effective course of action, including pruning, removal, or remedial work, ensuring compliance with industry standards.
For clients managing extensive landscapes, we also offer post-work site visits to verify that completed work meets British Standards 3998: Tree Work guidelines. This meticulous approach ensures the highest level of tree care while maintaining a visually appealing environment.

We create clear, practical plans to keep your trees healthy, safe, and well maintained.

Strategic woodland and tree management plans
For estates and landowners responsible for large woodland, a proactive management plan is essential. We design short, medium, and long-term strategies that assess existing tree stock, plan phased removals, and introduce sustainable replanting schemes.
These plans support biodiversity, encourage responsible land use, and enhance green spaces for recreational purposes. By adopting a structured approach, we help clients maintain a balanced and thriving woodland environment while preventing costly reactive interventions. Speak to our experienced arborists regarding your woodland management needs today.
