Tree Health Survey
Tree health survey in Moray and Aberdeenshire
Tree Health Survey
Are you worried about the health of a tree? Does the tree have sparse leaves? Does the tree look dead or have no leaves in summer? Are there mushrooms or strange looking growths oozing from the tree or around the base of the tree? Is there anything at all that looks out of place, or is it just located somewhere that worries you and you would like to know if its safe?
Unhealthy trees are much more likely to drop branches or be blown over in high winds. Knowing the health of your tree is important for both yours and your neighbours safety and to avoid property damage.
Epic Tree Care employ qualified tree experts who can give advice on how healthy your tree is. If you are looking for formal, or informal tree advice in Moray, Banffshire, Aberdeenshire or Aberdeen, contact us. We can inspect your tree and give you a free quote for any works we think are necessary.
While trees are often best left to their own devices, when growing around humans, it’s best to make sure they are safe!
