Arboricultural Consultants
Urban Tree Management is an independent arboricultural consultancy. We are completely independent from any tree surgery contractor and any construction company — every recommendation we make is based entirely on arboricultural merit, with no financial interest in the works we recommend.
We provide BS5837 tree surveys, tree risk assessments, pre-purchase and mortgage reports, and specialist decay detection investigations for homeowners, developers, architects, housing associations, local authorities, and ecological consultancies across Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Cheshire, Merseyside, and nationally. Our tree surveyors and arboricultural consultants hold the Level 6 Diploma in Arboriculture and are Professional Members of the Arboricultural Association.
BS5837 Tree Surveys, Risk Assessments & Specialist Decay Detection
Planning and development, from land purchase to handover
Most consultancies cover part of the planning process. We cover all of it — a feasibility appraisal before you buy the site, the BS5837 survey and impact assessment before you submit, an independent review of the package before the planning officer reads it, supervision through construction, and a post-construction survey at handover that closes the condition and records the trees you retained. One consultant, one point of contact, from the first look at the land to the last sign-off.
Tree risk and duty of care
For housing associations, schools, local authorities and commercial estates, we provide QTRA-based tree risk assessments, cyclical inspection programmes and tree risk management strategies — the records that show your duty of care is being managed.
Specialist decay detection
Our diagnostic capability — Arbotom sonic tomography, Rinntech Resistograph R650, ArboStApp structural assessment, ArWiLo wind load analysis and ArboRadix root plate mapping — places us in a very small group of consultancies in the North West able to offer this level of investigation. It's why other arboricultural practices, including some of our closest competitors, subcontract their decay detection work to us.
