Tree Health Assessments

Our certified arborists conduct thorough assessments starting at the base of your tree. We evaluate the root system, soil quality, and surrounding environment while visually inspecting the trunk and crown for signs of infestation or structural defects.

Tree Risk Assessments

Using the International Society of Arboriculture’s Tree Risk Assessment Standards, our arborists assess the potential risks posed by your trees. This evaluation considers factors such as the tree’s size, current condition, and the possible consequences of catastrophic failure.

Diagnosis and Suggestions for Remediation

After the assessments, our arborists will discuss their findings with you and provide tailored recommendations for your trees. Our primary goal is to preserve your trees through methods like cabling, bracing, or integrated pest management plans. However, in cases of hazardous trees, removal may be the only viable option.

The 3 Levels of Risk Assessment

Level 1: Limited Visual Tree Risk Assessment

This assessment is conducted from a specific, restricted viewpoint, which may limit the detection of certain risks. Methods include aerial patrols, drive-by surveys, foot patrols, or photographs.

Level 2: Basic Tree Risk Assessment

This level involves a comprehensive examination of the tree’s roots, trunk, and crown to identify structural defects. It includes a 360-degree, ground-based visual inspection.

Level 3: Advanced Tree Risk Assessment

This assessment goes beyond Level 2 and may involve advanced techniques such as tissue testing, drone inspections, and resistance drilling.

Tree Risk Mitigation

Once potential targets are identified, our consulting arborists will present various options to reduce damage risks. There are four primary strategies:

  • Removal of the Target: This option involves eliminating the potential target to prevent any risk.
  • Treating the Tree: This approach focuses on enhancing the health and stability of the tree itself to minimize risks.
  • Treating the Target: This involves addressing the conditions of the target to reduce its susceptibility to damage.

Removal is always considered a last resort when no other alternatives are viable.

Our Tree Inspection Criteria

Our inspectors use three main elements to determine the risk posed by a tree or branch and provide a priority ranking.

  • Likelihood of Tree Failure: Inspectors examine the tree’s structural condition, looking for signs of potential failure such as broken or hanging branches, trunk or branch cracks, and dead or dying parts.
  • Likelihood of Impact: After assessing failure risks, our expert risk assessors evaluate the chances of the tree impacting people, structures, animals, infrastructure, vehicles, and landscapes.
  • Consequences of Impact: Inspectors consider the potential outcomes of a tree or branch failure, including possible injuries or damages. Factors like the size of the tree or limb and the distance of the fall are taken into account.

If a tree requires ongoing monitoring, we’ll re-inspect it as needed, and our trained inspectors will continue to respond to public service requests. Our risk management program follows the ISA’s Tree Risk Management Best Management Practices (BMPs), which are aligned with ANSI standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Arboricultural equipment (e.g., climbing gear, pruning saws), visual inspection, specialized software (e.g., tree risk assessment software), and in some cases, invasive root exploration.

Tree species, age, size, location, condition (e.g., decay, structural defects), surrounding environment (e.g., buildings, utilities), and potential hazards (e.g., falling limbs, root damage).

Risk Evaluation: A process to quantify the likelihood and severity of a tree failure event. Decision trees are visual tools that help structure the evaluation process by branching out different potential outcomes based on various factors. Decision Trees: Decision trees use a series of “if-then” statements to guide the evaluation. Each branch represents a possible outcome, and the tree’s structure helps visualize the potential consequences of different actions or decisions.

There are typically three levels: Level 1 (basic visual inspection), Level 2 (more detailed assessment, often involving professional arborists), and Level 3 (in-depth evaluation for high-risk trees, often involving specialized equipment and techniques).
