Health and Structural Assessments

Health and structural condition of trees can be difficult to assess. 

Decline in tree health and vitality at times can be attributed to a single factor however is often due to a combination of underlying factors that place trees under stress and initiate decline predisposing them to attack/ infestation by pests or disease.    

Structural integrity can be difficult to assess as in some cases internal defects such as cavities, decay, disease or root damage cannot be detected.  A tree can display signs and symptoms that indicate possible internal problems however require further investigative assessment to determine the impact on structural integrity  

Where a visual tree inspection is inconclusive or cannot determine structural integrity or the cause of decline investigative diagnostic testing may be necessary.
