Construction and Development Consulting

Construction projects pose significant risks to existing trees. Root damage, soil compaction, and trunk injuries can kill valuable trees or create hazards that appear years later. Our arborists work with builders, architects, and property owners to develop tree protection plans that preserve desirable trees while allowing construction to proceed safely and efficiently.

We provide detailed assessments of trees on development sites, identifying which trees can be preserved and which should be removed. Our protection plans specify fencing locations, root protection zones, and construction methods that minimize tree damage. We can also recommend land clearing strategies that balance development needs with tree preservation. Post-construction, we monitor tree health and provide care to help preserved trees recover from construction stress.

Tree Risk Assessment and Management

Property owners have a responsibility to maintain trees in a safe condition. Our certified arborists conduct thorough tree risk assessments using standardized evaluation methods. We identify structural defects, disease, decay, and other factors that could lead to tree or branch failure. Our detailed reports document findings and provide clear recommendations for risk mitigation.

Risk management strategies may include pruning to remove hazardous branches, cabling and bracing for structural support, or removal of trees that pose unacceptable risks. We help you prioritize actions based on risk levels and budget considerations. Our assessments are valuable for property managers, municipalities, and anyone responsible for public safety around trees. Combined with our tree health services, we provide complete tree care solutions.
