We meticulously examine the tree for signs of decay, cavities, cracks, weak unions (where branches join the main stem), and significant leans. For instance, a common concern might be a "co-dominant stem" – two main stems of similar size originating from the same point. If the union between these stems is weak or includes bark (bark growing inwards rather than outwards), it can be highly prone to failure, especially under high wind loads or heavy snow. We're looking for signs that might indicate a high probability of failure, as outlined in industry best practices. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6735ca5086988f33674360dd/d2cb1f77-a7af-4a0d-b845-026190087f58/Gemini_Generated_Image_gtmeftgtmeftgtme.png Blog - Safeguarding Your Sanctuary: The Vital Role of Tree Risk Assessments - Make it stand out Fungal fruiting bodies (mushrooms or brackets) can be indicators of internal decay, even when the exterior appears sound. Insect infestations can also compromise a tree's structural integrity. Early identification allows for targeted treatment or management strategies. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6735ca5086988f33674360dd/dcedb831-51f2-4822-803e-d6a032780e84/Gemini_Generated_Image_fh2qf1fh2qf1fh2q.png Blog - Safeguarding Your Sanctuary: The Vital Role of Tree Risk Assessments - Make it stand out The health of a tree starts underground. We inspect the root collar (where the stem meets the roots) for defects and assess the root plate for signs of instability or heaving. This is particularly critical in the built environment where root systems can be constrained by hard surfaces, foundations, or underground services. Even seemingly minor changes in soil levels, such as those caused by cut and fill operations during construction, can severely impact root health and anchorage, leading to instability over time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6735ca5086988f33674360dd/17fa2cb4-ec9c-474a-ace7-4d694ca053ac/Gemini_Generated_Image_cedey9cedey9cede.png Blog - Safeguarding Your Sanctuary: The Vital Role of Tree Risk Assessments - Make it stand out AI Image: yes, we wouldn’t stand that close to a falling tree… with binoculars?! We consider the tree's immediate surroundings. Is it exposed to prevailing winds? Are there nearby excavations or changes in water tables that might affect its stability? Trees in flood zones, for example, might experience root damage from prolonged inundation, making them more susceptible to collapse. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6735ca5086988f33674360dd/6471bb9b-8a41-4797-aa1f-990f347997a6/Gemini_Generated_Image_nbxdt6nbxdt6nbxd.png Blog - Safeguarding Your Sanctuary: The Vital Role of Tree Risk Assessments - Make it stand out Crucially, a risk assessment doesn't just evaluate the tree; it evaluates what or who could be impacted if the tree or a part of it failed (targets). This includes buildings, roads, footpaths, play areas, and even adjacent properties. The level of risk is a combination of the likelihood of failure and the severity of the consequences. https://www.allsilva.co.uk/blogs/blog-post-title-four-c8pk6 monthly 0.5 2025-10-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6735ca5086988f33674360dd/7dbd17eb-f89a-4fe2-b982-0f2b25a84a3b/PXL_20251016_121315173.jpg Blog - Why Proper Tree Pruning Extends the Life of Your Trees - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6735ca5086988f33674360dd/2ccdbe20-0620-4683-91c6-49daeea4d789/IMG_0317.jpg Blog - Why Proper Tree Pruning Extends the Life of Your Trees - Early pruning, solves later headaches This Corsican Pine developed co-dominant stems, leading to the lower branch to outcompete the terminal bud.
