Our Specialisms

Different sectors have different needs. We bring deep understanding of the specific risks, regulatory requirements, and practical constraints that matter to you.

Schools & Educational Estates

Keeping children safe around trees on your grounds.

Trees on school grounds add enormous value — they support learning, improve wellbeing, and create natural spaces for children to play and explore. But they also come with responsibilities. Schools have a duty of care to pupils, staff, and visitors, and trees in poor condition or with unmanaged hazards represent a real liability.

We work with primary schools, secondary schools, independent schools, and multi-academy trusts to carry out regular tree safety inspections and risk assessments across their estates. Our reports are written to be clear for non-specialist governors and business managers, as well as suitable for insurers and Ofsted-related due diligence.

We understand the seasonal pressures of school life — inspections can be planned around term times, and we're used to working on occupied sites without disruption to the school day.

Campsites & Outdoor Leisure

Safe green spaces for guests to enjoy.

Campsites, glamping sites, forest schools, and outdoor activity centres derive much of their appeal from their natural, wooded character. Trees are part of the offer — but so is the obligation to keep guests safe.

We carry out tree surveys for campsites of all sizes, from small farm campsites to large touring parks and glamping operations. We understand that your guests are sleeping, playing, and relaxing under and around trees, which means the consequences of a failure can be severe.

Our surveys identify risk and give you a prioritised management plan that lets you address issues in a cost-effective, planned way — rather than reacting to emergencies. We can also advise on species selection for new planting that enhances your site's character while staying manageable.

Public Sector & Local Authorities

Professional reports that stand up to scrutiny.

Councils and public bodies manage some of the largest and most complex tree stocks in the UK — street trees, park trees, trees in housing estates, trees in cemeteries and public open spaces. Managing them responsibly, within budget, and in the face of public scrutiny requires clear evidence and professional advice.

We provide surveys and reports that are rigorous, clearly presented, and defensible. We understand the procurement and reporting requirements of public sector clients, and we produce documentation that works for planning committees, legal departments, and the public alike.

We also work with parish councils and smaller local authorities who need the same professional quality of service but without the overhead of a large framework contract. Whether you have one tree of concern or a full estate survey requirement, we can help.

Shopping Centres & Retail Estates

Protecting customers, staff, and your reputation.

Shopping centres and retail parks often have significant numbers of trees — in car parks, along pedestrianised areas, in landscaped zones and urban plazas. These trees are visited by thousands of people each day, which means tree failure can have serious and very public consequences.

We work with retail estate managers and facilities teams to carry out regular inspections that give you confidence in your trees and clear documentation for insurers and property management requirements. Our reports are designed for facilities managers — practical, clear, and easy to act on.

We understand the commercial pressures of retail estate management and can work around trading hours and footfall patterns to minimise disruption. We can also advise on remediation work specifications, so you can get competitive quotes for any required works.

Domestic & Residential

Expert tree advice for homeowners and private landowners.

Trees in gardens and on private land raise all kinds of questions — about planning permissions, neighbour disputes, safety concerns, and long-term management. Getting the right advice early makes a significant difference, whether you're planning a garden re-landscaping, an extension, or dealing with a tree that's causing problems.

For homeowners, a professional tree survey or report can mean the difference between a planning application succeeding or failing, a boundary dispute resolving quickly, or an insurance claim being properly evidenced. We work with private individuals as well as larger organisations, and we give every client the same professional care regardless of the scale of the project.

From assessing a single tree of concern to preparing a full BS5837 survey for a self-build project or home extension, we offer the full range of arboricultural services at the individual property level — in plain language, without the jargon.
