What condition are your trees in? Are they close to roads, public footpaths, neighbouring buildings etc.? Are you discharging your DUTY OF CARE under The Occupiers Liability Acts of 1957 & 1984 to a degree that would satisfy a court in the event of an accident, especially in the light of the Poll v Bartholomew verdict of 2006 with regard to roadside trees? If you cannot answer firmly ‘yes’ to this final question, Mark Carter can help with preliminary, detailed and internal safety inspections carried out by a competent person, licensed to use the Quantified Tree Risk Assessment.

The Quantified Tree Risk Assessment is the UK’s leading methodology for carrying out tree risk assessments and it allows the risk management process to be driven by the value and occupancy of the target within falling distance of the tree. This in turn allows resources for survey and tree works to be targeted, in a defendable manner, to the highest risk areas, an important consideration for financial managers.
