Core Consulting Services
Consulting services only. RootWise Consulting does not provide pruning, removal, or routine tree maintenance.
Tree Protection Plans (TPPs)
Tree Protection Plans outline measures required to protect existing trees during construction and development activities. Plans typically include tree protection zones, fencing requirements, access considerations, and site-specific notes prepared to support municipal review and on-site implementation.
Tree Preservation Plans
Tree Preservation Plans address development activities that involve excavation, grade change, or other impacts near retained trees. These plans include protection measures as well as mitigation strategies and are prepared to support permitting, construction coordination, and municipal review.
Tree Inventories & Tree Management
Tree inventories provide field-verified information on tree species, size, condition, and structure to support planning and decision-making. Tree management recommendations may include retention strategies, prioritization, and guidance for long-term stewardship or development sequencing.
Tree Health Assessments
Tree health assessments evaluate tree condition, vitality, and contributing site factors. Assessments are diagnostic in nature and include professional observations, identified stressors, and treatment or management recommendations where appropriate.
Tree Valuation / Appraisal
Tree valuation services provide an estimate of tree value for damage claims, disputes, compensation, or regulatory purposes. Valuations are prepared using recognized methodologies and are suitable for insurance, municipal, or legal contexts.
