Why do you need Consulting Arborist Oversight During Construction?

On-site consulting arborist supervision prevents unforeseen impacts to trees during construction. Some municipalities may require an on-site consulting arborist submit a report to the City Forester on a daily or weekly basis as part of the tree protection plan.

Role of Consulting Arborist

Having a competent consulting arborist on-site prevents tree plan violations from occurring and keeps trees in good condition through the life of the project. We collect data and take photos documenting the construction to provide as proof that the client met the expectations of the municipality.

The consulting arborist also communicates the tree protection plan to the construction team, helping them to avoid violations. We ensure trees are not damaged by construction equipment, tree protection measures are kept in place throughout the project, pruned roots will not cause a tree to become dangerous, and unapproved construction encroachment does not occur.
