Services
Arborist Reports
We prepare comprehensive arborist reports including Arboricultural Impact Assessments, Tree Retention Plans, and Vegetation Management Plans. Our documentation meets council requirements for development applications and includes risk assessments for single or multiple trees.
Plant Health Care
Our Plant Health Care programs use compost tea applications and soil decompaction techniques to maintain tree vitality. We employ MIS506 valuation methods and thermal imaging diagnostics to assess and improve tree condition across residential and commercial properties.
Tree Valuation
We conduct detailed tree valuations using industry-endorsed MIS506 standards. Our reports consider species rarity, condition, and ecological value to determine monetary worth for insurance, legal, or development purposes across Australia.
VOGT Soil Decompaction
Our VOGT GeoTec technology decompacts soil while injecting beneficial additives. This improves root zone conditions for tree health without damaging surrounding landscapes, particularly effective in urban environments with compacted soils.
International Consulting
We provide international arboricultural consultancy using Australian standards adapted to local conditions. Our team travels globally to assess tree health, prepare management plans, and offer expert testimony on complex vegetation matters.
