Construction is the leading cause of death among urban trees. Using a consulting arborist during preconstruction planning and for postconstruction monitoring and maintenance will greatly increase the chances of survival for trees during and after construction.
Trees are valuable. There are more methods than one to place a monetary value upon a tree, which makes it important that the right method is in fact used. If the wrong method is used, the true value of the tree will not be reflected. To avoid this, sound professional judgement and knowledge are required.
In addition to knowledge and experience, an array of diagnostic instruments are sometimes useful for gathering information about a sick tree. The samples taken will be sent to outside laboratories for evaluation, and a proper diagnosis will be determined.
