ArB Tree Care Ltd offers expert consultancy advice on all aspects of tree management. Advice, reports and recommendations are all provided by fully qualified and insured professionals in order to meet all of your domestic and commercial needs. Below are some of the most frequent reports we undertake.
Tree Risk Assessment
Landowners and managers have a duty of care under the Occupiers Liability Act (1967 and 1984). This states an occupier of a site has a duty of care to take reasonable steps to prevent or minimise the risk of personal injury or damage to property arising from the presence of any tree on the site or from its breakage or uprooting. As such it is important that landowners make a recorded assessment of the condition of the trees on their property/land. Arb Tree Care Ltd. has extensive experience with both individuals and large corporations and universities.
BS5837:2012 Trees in Relation to Construction Report
This report is for anyone planning to alter property or land that contains or is close to trees. This includes any construction, demolition, design or renovation that may take place. This is a requirement of everyone, be it large companies or individual home owners as it is important not only to protect wildlife, but also ensure that large trees will not affect the development of the new builds. The report will include a Tree Survey plan which shows the location of all trees on the premises, a Schedule which records details such as TPOs, tree heights and age class, and a Tree Constraints plan which includes details such as an individual Tree quality Plan, the Root Protection Area and any Future Growth Potential.
