 Preliminary arboricultural assessments are intended to identify the arboricultural characteristics of each tree on site at the start of a project. These reports help you make informed decisions regarding the trees during the design process.

Preliminary reports provide various fields of information including tree identification, size, condition, Tree Protection Zone (TPZ), Structural Root Zone (SRZ) and retention value.

Construction impact reports include all the arboricultural information from the preliminary report and provide an analysis of the impacts on the trees that might arise from the proposed development.

The construction impact analysis is based on a calculation of TPZ encroachment from the proposed design and recommendations to address the impact, either through construction methods or design modifications.

Tree management reports will outline specific requirements for the protection of retained trees during the various stages of development i.e - demolition, construction, post-construction, and landscaping. The report will identify construction methods within the TPZ, along with key supervision and monitoring stages of the project.

Tree management plans are a scale drawing that accompanies the tree management report. The plan will clearly indicate the areas of the TPZ that will be enclosed with tree protection fencing or protected with ground protection.

We can provide tree risk assessments using either of the internationally recognized tree risk assessment methodologies (TRAQ & QTRA). We can also provide general arboricultural condition assessments if you would like arboricultural advice for a tree, or trees, at your property.
