Managing health and safety in green spaces the public can access can be a minefield. Regular maintenance and monitoring of trees and their general health can help to identify issues before they become a problem.
Our qualified arborists can provide an assessment and a written report where required. We work with many businesses, schools, and ECEs to address any areas of concern and the risks associated with the concerns. We can offer advice on ways to mitigate problems and manage a tree’s health to encourage the tree to thrive.
An annual visit will provide a snapshot of the health of any trees to proactively identify any historical changes and offer advice on a long-term management plan. This is particularly important for schools where a vision can be discussed and works can be initiated to achieve that vison over several years.
Projects that involve the development of a site often need some vegetation management or removal. Some developments may require multiple experts on the same site. The Treeman can collaborate with a larger team that involves other contractors to ensure that H&S documentation and processes are followed.
Works that involve disturbance of the soil near protected trees may require a resource consent. Sometimes the consent requires a qualified arborist to be on-site to observe and respond where necessary to work in and around the dripline of a protected tree. This may involve managing exposed roots and potentially cutting some of the roots in line with best practice.
The Treeman has qualified arborists who can provide this service.
When the unexpected happens and a car hits a tree or there is lightning damage to a tree on a main thoroughfare, we can provide a prompt response. Additionally, we provide an emergency response service for potentially dangerous trees after extreme weather events. We will prioritize and redirect staff to urgent work where the public or property is in danger. This may include working with contractors responsible for clearing access to the roads and utilities accountable for power and water.
