These services are designed to address future problems and mitigate impacts to prevent issues from occurring post development

You can see some of our long term projects at: Island Roots housing, Second Street Cabins, Bayview Corner, City of Langley Parks.

Services

Hazard assessment: [Cross link to Tree Risk]

Construction mitigation plans: call us to avoid these potential impacts before they occur.

Construction to the property line removed nearly half of the trees root systems
Broken roots
Post construction and tree decline
Construction debris and fill stored within the dripline and critical root zone
Soil compaction
Building site prep in laminated root rot pocket
Soil compaction and development can lead to landscape issues for many decades
Good intentions, the trees protection is now damaging to them
“Where the sidewalk ends” Alterations of plans allow for accomidations for urban canopy.
Core samples reveiled the tree has lost too much wood volume from decay and impacts
We can do better with our designs
Sometimes its a sqare peg in a round hole
Pre build stem crack

Construction Mitigation Plans

Second Street Cabins

Tree inspections:

Tree Value Appraisals:

Core sampling for suspected stem crack
Climbing inspection assessment on a topped Western Red Cedar
Assessment of old improper pruning wound leading to significant scaffold limb failure
Beetle Galleries, the pattern can be used to identify the species
Lady beetle nymphs molting
Banded Alder Borer
Decay staining can indicate concerns with ajacent trees are warrented
Red Turptine Beetle, insect vector for blue stain fungi can quickly lead to mortality.
Core samples can provide tangible samples for lab dianosis and decay volume estimations
Some times a root rot/butt rot and sometimes digesting dead wood in normal nutrient cycling
