Detailed Tree Inspections

For large or significant trees it is sometimes necessary to carry out a detailed tree inspection to assess the health and safety of individual trees, and to evaluate the risks or hazard which they present.

Detailed tree inspections included;

• Visual tree inspection (VTA)
• Recording and testing of cavities and visible defects
• Climbing inspections
• Internal decay testing and assessment
• Scientific identification of fungal material
• Disease diagnosis

From these inspections recommendations for works to maintain trees in a safe and healthy condition can be produced.
