Our tree inspection services are tailored to meet the needs of various clients, including local councils, schools, developers, and private landlords. We perform both ground inspections and canopy inspections using drones, offering a thorough and efficient assessment of tree health and safety.
Inspection Frequency
We recommend the following inspection schedule, though it can be adjusted based on specific client needs or tree conditions:
- Annual Inspections: A full inspection of all trees on-site, conducted once a year, to assess tree health, identify defects, and monitor growth.
- Post-Extreme Weather Inspections: Additional inspections after extreme weather events such as:
- High winds
- Fires
- Flooding This allows for the detection of any storm damage, uprooted trees, or weakened structures that may pose a risk.
Inspection Process
- Ground Inspections: A comprehensive visual inspection of the base and lower canopy to identify obvious defects such as cracks, fungal growth, or root issues.
- Drone Canopy Inspections: Using drone technology, we will conduct detailed aerial surveys of the canopy, looking for issues that are harder to spot from the ground, such as weak limbs, canopy thinning, or signs of pest or disease.
Reporting
After each inspection, we will provide a detailed report outlining:
- Identified defects or health issues
- Recommendations for remediation, including pruning, removal, or other treatments
- Development management strategies
- Pruning schedules in accordance with AS4373-2007 (Pruning Amenity Trees) standards
Pruning and Management Plans
Following the inspection, we will develop a pruning schedule that:
