Tree owners have a legal responsibility to ensure their trees don’t pose a risk to people or property. Whether you’re managing a single mature oak or a large estate with hundreds of trees, our condition surveys provide the insight you need to manage risk and maintain tree health.
At New Leaf Environmental, we carry out tree condition surveys tailored to your site, objectives, and obligations. We assess tree health, structure, and potential hazards—and offer practical, evidence-based management recommendations grounded in arboricultural best practice.
We offer a range of survey types to suit different site sizes, budgets, and levels of detail.
Survey Options
Individual / Specific Tree Inspection
When you’re concerned about a particular tree—whether due to visible defects, legal requirements like TPOs, or just peace of mind—this service delivers a thorough assessment of its health, safety, and structure. Ideal for homeowners, schools, or landowners needing targeted advice or support for formal applications.
Walk-Over Site Survey
For sites with many trees—such as parks, estates, or campuses—this cost-effective method allows for a quick visual inspection of all trees from ground level. We look for signs of decay, damage, or instability and record any trees that pose a risk. Unsafe trees are tagged and mapped for easy reference, and the final report outlines recommended actions and timeframes.
Full Comprehensive Site Survey
This detailed assessment records every tree above a set size within the survey area. We document structural condition, health, and potential risks—creating a full inventory that supports long-term management. This option is especially useful in areas with public access, buildings nearby, or for asset planning across large developments.
Combination Site Survey
When full detail is needed in key areas—but a full survey isn't feasible across the entire site—we combine approaches. High-priority zones (such as around buildings) receive a full assessment, while other areas are reviewed through a walk-over survey. This hybrid method ensures effective coverage where it matters most, while keeping costs efficient.
