Tree Safety InspectionS
Professional tree safety reports
Welcome to Oak Valley Tree Consultancy, your trusted provider of professional tree care services. With our extensive experience and qualifications, we specialize in conducting thorough tree safety inspections to assess and report on the safety of trees in various settings, ranging from individual specimen trees in domestic gardens to large groups of trees in commercial sites or woodlands.
Our tree safety inspections, known as Visual Tree Assessments (VTAs), encompass a comprehensive evaluation of multiple factors. We consider the general health and condition of the tree, potential risks associated with limbs in proximity to buildings, people, or animals, the tree’s stability during high winds, nutrient and water deficiencies, pest infestations, and many other important aspects.
Upon identifying any risks or hazards, we develop a tailored management plan that outlines recommended remedial works and a timeline for their completion. Our expertise extends to utilizing the advanced VALID Tree Risk Management software, which we integrate into our inspections and reports at no additional cost. This cutting-edge software, widely used for risk assessment reports on large trees in Australia and New Zealand, enhances the accuracy and precision of our assessments.
For more in-depth analysis, we offer additional investigative methods such as aerial inspections to examine the tree’s crown, sonic tomography imaging to assess internal timber condition, and the use of our root plate movement sensor to evaluate root stability.

There are numerous reasons why a tree safety inspection may be necessary, including peace of mind before a house purchase, at the request of a home insurance company, or to ensure the safety of public event venues or local shows. It is crucial to rely on an experienced, qualified, insured, and knowledgeable consultant who can confidently identify potential hazards.

Making Sure That You Are Covered
Fully qualified & insured
It is a requirement for landowners to ensure that their trees are safe, as in the event of a failure or accident the liability sits on their shoulders. Once a tree is identified as being safe by a qualified tree consultant, and as long as any recommendations have been completed, then the liability becomes the responsibility of the consultant.
For this reason, it is essential that safety inspections are carried out with the appropriate insurances in place. Oak Valley Tree Consultancy are fully qualified and carry public liability and professional indemnity insurance to the value of £10,000,000.
