Tree Safety Management

Specialist tree risk management and assessment, helping landowners and organisations across Wales to make balanced, informed decisions about their trees.

Tree Safety Assessments

Practical, proportionate assessments informed by a tree risk–benefit management strategy.

Reports are clear and accessible, helping clients to understand any recommended intervention work, share recommendations with contractors, and submit reports as part of applications for consent to carry out works to protected trees.

Long-term Tree Safety Planning

Support for clients who prefer a steady, consistent approach to tree management. Most work follows a two-year inspection cycle, keeping plans simple, predictable, and manageable.

Clients receive email reminders when inspections are due for renewal, along with free telephone advice throughout the inspection period.

Detailed Tree Investigations

Where further information is required, visual assessment is combined with advanced diagnostic and detection equipment. This provides a deeper understanding of tree health, structural condition, and potential modes of failure.

Tree Management Advice

Balanced guidance for both protected and unprotected trees, helping clients make proportionate, well-reasoned tree-management decisions and meet their responsibilities without unnecessary intervention. Reports and recommendations are clear and accessible.
