Tree surveys are performed by highly trained arborists and are designed to produce a detailed picture regarding the overall integrity of trees on a given property. When an expert from DTE conducts a tree survey in Luton they indicate what kind of trees are present on a property, the current state of each tree and which trees (if any) should be removed. Tree surveys are typically mandatory when a property is targeted for development, or an adjacent property is targeted for development. But property owners often commission tree surveys at other times, including in the aftermath of extreme weather events.
The Benefits of a Tree Survey in Luton
Tree surveys provide a variety of benefits, including:
Decay detection: The arborist has special tools and training that allow him or her to detect decay and determine if a tree needs to be removed.
Protection of endangered species: Animals are not the only “endangered species”. Some species of trees are also endangered. It’s important to know if a tree is a member of an endangered species before deciding to cut it down.
Fulfilling legal obligations: Landowners are legally obliged to ensure the health of the trees on their property and make sure none of them represents a safety hazard. A tree survey helps landowners meet this responsibility.
Providing important information: In order to properly care for their trees landowners need to know about them. The tree survey provides vital information including age, species, measurements, height and overall health.
The Importance of Tree Surveys
Trees are vital to maintaining a high quality of life in both urban areas and the countryside. But there are times when they may present a threat to safety due to age, disease or damage. The tree survey for Luton landowners enables them to live up to their responsibilities regarding tree care while also helping to ensure the health and vitality of the trees themselves.
