Our Tree Health Score Cards provide an in-depth, standardized evaluation of your trees’ health. We assess factors such as canopy density, leaf colour, branch structure, root condition, and the presence of pests or diseases. Each tree is given a health score that tracks its overall condition over time, allowing you to monitor changes and address potential issues early. This diagnostic tool is particularly useful for property managers, municipalities and homeowners who want to maintain the health of their trees and make informed decisions about tree care, pruning or removal.

Plant assessment involves visually evaluating plant dimensions, canopy, foliage, and chlorophyll/sugar content to understand the overall health of the tree and identify any issues that are currently present. It assists arborists with guiding their strategy towards the long-term improvement and sustainability of the trees’ health. Furthermore, while conducting inspections on large groups of trees’, scorecards can assist arborists in determining which trees need to be further investigated for other concerns.
