Avoiding Damage to Trees during Construction

 

TREES 1st  ARE OFFERING A COMPREHENSIVE PACKAGE TO

 

ALLEVIATE THE STRESS OF TREECARE AND PROTECTION

BEFORE DURING AND AFTER CONSTRUCTION 

 

As cities and suburbs expand, wooded lands are being developed into commercial and residential sites. Homes are constructed in the midst of trees to take advantage of the aesthetic and environmental value of the wooded plots. Wooded properties can be worth as much as twenty percent more than those without trees, and people value the opportunity to live among trees.

Unfortunately, the processes involved with construction can be deadly to the nearby trees. Further, unless the damage is extreme, the trees may not die immediately, but could decline over several years. With this delay in symptom development, you may not associate the loss of the tree with the construction.

It is possible to preserve trees on building sites if the right measures are taken. The most important step is to hire a professional arborist during the planning stage. An arborist can help you decide which trees can be saved, and can work with the builder to protect the trees throughout each construction phase.

I would like to bring to your notice, our comprehensive Construction Site and Tree offer. This could cover all trees on your property and would be for the purpose of Tree Management during construction, this would meet all health and safety requirements.

On completion of the Tree and site inspection, we will advise you of any adversities or hazards within the trees inspected.  If you require, we can supply a comprehensive Predevelopment Tree Report and a free quotation for remedial works if required, with no obligation. We would also liaise with local authorities to gain the relevant permissions as necessary. 

A tree inspection and any required work would cover your legal liabilities (to the extent to what is considered reasonable) for tree maintenance, until a further inspection is required. (Between 1&5 years, depending on various factors).

 

You are also helping to conserve the amenity of the trees in the area in which you live or work.
