Tree Surveys For Risk Management

Until relatively recently, tree surveys carried out in respect of safety tended to focus on tree defects, often resulting in knee jerk reactions to problems that sometimes did not exist. Recent advances in the way risk is assessed and managed however has resulted in more focus being given to the area (the target area) that may be affected by the failure of a tree or its part, as well as what the likelihood might be of a person or object of value occupying that target area at the time of failure. This can be used to more effectively apply resources to a particular problem area rather than the traditional method of widespread and often unnecessary destruction of trees that may actually require little, if any work at all.

We employ a number of staff who are fully conversant with modern methods of assessing risk from trees and who are experienced in carrying out tree surveys to a number of different methods.

Remember that specific requirements and guidelines for tree surveys for risk management may vary depending on the location and context. Contact Ascerta today to obtain accurate and tailored information based on your specific needs and location.
