Universities and Campuses

Protect the trees that make your campus.

Campus trees connect busy paths, buildings, gardens, and gathering places. We help grounds and facilities teams understand tree condition and plan care around the life of the campus.

Questions we can help answer

Make the next step clearer.

01

Can we plan works around this tree?

Map detectable roots near proposed buildings, utilities, or paths. Give arborists and design teams better information for tree protection planning.

02

Why is an important tree declining?

Investigate the tree and its setting together. Soil, root, trunk, and canopy observations help narrow the questions and guide the next assessment or care decision.

03

How do we keep care consistent?

Keep records that new staff and contractors can use. Decide when to inspect again and compare changes across seasons.

The right tests for the question

Choose the right tests.

Look below planned works

Use root radar and site observations to investigate the relationship between trees and proposed construction. Agree the area to survey with the project team.

Explore root investigations

Investigate the whole tree

Choose trunk scans, soil tests, or a drone canopy survey to suit the concern. Each test answers a different question.

Explore diagnostic methods

Follow change across campus

Combine repeat field measurements with aerial observations where useful. Track important trees and flag areas that need a closer inspection.

What you take away

Findings your team
can put to work.

We agree what you will receive before work begins. This may include:

Caring for a historic tree or planning works across campus? Our arborists help your grounds, facilities, and project teams understand the findings and agree next steps.

A useful first conversation

Discuss your campus trees.

Share a campus map showing the trees of concern, relevant reports, and construction plans or deadlines. We can plan access and fieldwork around teaching, events, and site operations.
