What is a Tree Condition Survey?
Tree condition surveys are based on a standard tree survey; however, they are bias toward the health of the tree and identifying any potential issues. This is done with the objective to firstly make sure the tree is safe and secondly to ensure the ongoing health of the tree. These surveys are particularly useful if the tree overhangs a pedestrian walkway or a playground as the Health and Safety executive can, and has, taken a number of people to court when a branch has come off a tree and injured a person.
