Tree Risk Management
From individual trees to entire populations, our inspections and reports transfer the responsibility from the tree owner to us as the advising experts. If you are concerned about tree safety, contact us to alleviate your worries.
What is Tree Risk Management?
Where trees grow close to people and property, personal and public safety is obviously important. Big trees that could cause harm or injury if they fail need to be regularly checked to identify and control significant risks. All tree owners have a general duty of care to make sure a competent person systematically inspects trees that could cause harm if they failed.
All our consultants have passed the LANTRA Professional Tree Inspection course, which makes them accredited to check trees and advise on intervention management to control significant risks. From single trees to entire populations, our inspections and reports shift the burden of responsibility from the tree owner to us as the advising experts.
If you are concerned about tree safety, please contact us to put your mind at ease.

Why choose us?
Some situations require comprehensive tree management. Clients needing Tree Management Surveys typically oversee estates or communal landscaped areas. Each situation is addressed with a tailored approach, including only what the site requires.
This often means conducting a Population Survey to record every tree and its condition, along with a Tree Risk Survey. Recommendations may also cover nuisance issues, such as trees affecting gutters, footpaths, parking, or roads.
With qualifications in Arboriculture, I bring the technical expertise and industry knowledge needed to deliver accurate, reliable and compliant reports for any project or property.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who needs a Tree Risk Management Plan?
Any landowner with trees that could potentially affect public areas, buildings or neighbouring properties should have a plan in place. This includes private estates, schools, parish councils, housing developments and commercial sites.
How does a plan protect me legally?
A documented plan demonstrates that you’ve taken “reasonable steps” to manage foreseeable risks. In the event of an incident, this can serve as strong evidence of compliance with your duty of care and significantly reduce liability exposure.
What does the plan include?
The plan typically contains a record of tree inspections, identified risks, recommended works, inspection frequency, and details of who carried out the inspections. It also sets out a timeline for follow-up visits or maintenance.
