Consultative services include Arborist reporting, assessment, removal permit processes and tree appraisal

Tree inventories provide the primary information regarding the condition of trees on your property. This includes an assessment of tree size, health, structure, suitability for the space, and protected status based on your local municipal code. We use this information to develop a practical management plan to guide tree and maintenance on your property. Our management plans can include:

• Plant health care recommendations for abiotic and biotic conditions
• Pruning priorities for single or multiyear planning
• Removal prioritization guidance
• Helpful information regarding on site environmental conditions

Arborist reports are useful and are often required in many areas for development/construction projects. Whether it is a branch, new commercial development, or single-family home remodel. Our arborist reports build on our inventory reports to provide functional recommendations for preserving trees on your site. We work to ensure recommendations follow all local and municipal codes to provide our clients with a smooth development experience. Our arborist reports can include:

• Tree focused guidance during the planning, permitting, and construction stages of development.
• Recommendations regarding suitable trees for preservation and removal.
• Preservation guidelines to limit negative impact trees.

Tree removal permits are often required to remove trees in many cities and jurisdiction. Our consulting arborists can handle every step of the permitting process, from application and fee payment, to writing reports and posting notices. Our arborist reports provide accurate and unbiased assessment of a tree(s) condition to be used in a tree removal application when necessary.

Often going hand in hand with arborist reports, construction monitoring provides on site guidance by a Registered Consulting Arborist to reduce negative impact to trees designated for preservation. This can include:

• Inspection of tree protective fencing
• Monitoring and advise during root pruning activities
• Monitoring pruning and/or removal
• Inspection of plant materials to ensure quality

Unsound and unhealthy trees can pose a serious risk to property and people in the area. Tree risk assessments are a practical tool for systematically inspecting the condition of a tree, analyzing the impact a tree can have should it fail and provide recommendations for tree management. Our Registered Consulting Arborists use the standardized Tree Risk Assessment guidelines provided by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) to make judgments regarding the risk a tree poses. This information is used to guide recommendations.
