Consultancy and Hazard Assessments
County Tree Surgeons is proud to offer a consultancy service using fully qualified, fully insured Arboricultutal Association registered consultants.
When trees are located in public areas such as parks or commercial grounds or even private land, and especially where the tree overhangs neighbouring land such as footpaths, roads or car parks it is an essential part of responsible tree ownership to ensure they are regularly inspected by an experienced arboricultural consultant.
Tree management can then be undertaken by fully qualified arborists (Tree surgeons) to reduce the risk of tree failures, while the report from the consultant, detailing the appropriate work reccommendations will demonstrate that the tree owner is acting responsibly and considering their duty of care.
It is essential to know that trees may sometimes appear sound and healthy but are actually not and may be liable to collapse or failure. Tree hazard assessment is an integral part of responsible tree ownership. Predictable tree failure as a result of inadequate management can result in litigation, high insurance claims, property damage, personal injury or death.
