Steps to Construction Site Tree Management
Planning & Design – Our arborist determines the trees or shrubs to preserve or remove; consider regulations, zoning ordinances and tree characteristics; communicate with the architects, planners, developers, and engineers. We consider project structure, size, shape, and location; consider change in grade, vehicle parking, drainage, material storage, fueling, and access routes.
Pre-construction – Our arborist oversees tree removals; performs preventative pruning; establish tree protection zones.
During Construction – We monitor construction site for tree injury and/or tree preservation zone encroachment; identify violations; maintain communication with contractor, developer and governmental representatives; maintain knowledge of site plan changes.
Post-construction – We remove tree protection zone barriers; perform tree inspections; monitor soil moisture, mulch levels, tree damages, and overall health of the trees.
