Surveying

The Company is regularly called upon to provide reports on tree health and condition, wildlife habitat assessments and root mapping.

Where there are concerns about underground utilities like pipes, cables and drains Gristwood & Toms use the latest cable avoidance technology, known as CAT & Gennys. In addition the company has invested in the Mala Underground Radar System, which produces detailed scans of all sub-surface objects including tree roots.

Very few arboricultural companies have access to this sophisticated equipment and we recommend that if there is any doubt about sub-surface materials then you seek advice in advance.

Gristwood and Toms provides professional tree advice, tree surveys and reports to a varied client base throughout the UK. If you own or are responsible for trees we can help you to assess your risk and liability and help you manage it in the most cost effective and efficient manner.

Our inspections and surveys can be tailored to suit all budgets and our regular clients include property developers, surveyors, architects, land owners, private organisations and Local Authorities.
